Juvederm Tips and Instructions
As we age, our skin reduces the production of a naturally hydrating substance called hyaluronic acid. The loss of hyaluronic acid in your skin results in facial wrinkles and folds.
Allergen Inc, the makers of Botox Cosmetic brings us Juvederm, an FDA-approved next-generation cosmetic filler for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds.
Juvederm injectable gel replaces the hyaluronic acid that your skin has lost, which improves your skin's volume and smoothes away facial wrinkles and folds. Juvederm is the only hyaluronic acid that is FDA approved to last for up to a year. Juvederm is also commonly used to improve the volume and appearance of the lips.
Results of Juvederm treatments are immediate with little to no downtime.
Before your Juvederm treatment
Avoid using aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, St. John's Wort, or high dose of Vitamin E supplements for one week prior to your treatment, because these may increase bruising or bleeding at the injection site.
After your Juvederm treatment
You may experience redness, swelling and bruising after your treatment, which is normal and will usually resolve within a few days.
You may apply 100% mineral makeup immediately after treatment.
The use of Arnica and Bromelain tablets is recommended following your treatment to minimize bruising and swelling.
You may experience tenderness in the treated area. Apply cold compresses to ease pain and minimize swelling.
Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after treatment
Avoid sun exposure and exposure to intense heat until redness or swelling is completely resolved.
Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas.
