Its no surprise that we all want to look younger - that may be why the average American woman spends 55 minutes a day getting ready. Over the course of a year, that equals two weeks spent on cosmetic primping. What if we told you, you could cut that time in half and get more beautiful, vibrant looking skin - without botox! JUVADERM® XC Injectable Gel is one of the fastest growing facial injections on the market because it is safe, effective and requires almost no down time post injection.
- U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved.
- Designed to temporarily treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds such as nasolabial folds.
- Infused with lidocaine to make the injection more comfortable.
- Made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar that occurs naturally in the body.
The Procedure
JUVADERM® XC injections take roughly 15 minutes to administer and can be completed in one visit to the doctor’s office. A needle is used to inject the serum underneath the skin and add volume to an area or fill in wrinkles and folds. And because JUVADERM® XC contains lidocaine, an anesthetic is rarely needed. Most patients can return to regular life within minutes of the procedure. However, you should not exercise, be in the sun for long periods of time or drink alcohol for 24 hours following the injection.
The Results
Immediately after the injection, it is normal to experience slight swelling, sensitivity or bruising - but this will usually go away within a few days. The results typically last 6 - 9 months, and in some cases have lasted for as long as 1 year.
Risks of JUVADERM® XC Injectable Gel
Side effects are rare, however some patients do experience redness, tenderness, discoloration and infection at injection site.
