Juvéderm Las Vegas, NV
Juvéderm® is an injectable dermal filler used by practitioners to fill out facial skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers can be a safe, effective procedure that smooths visible signs of aging. Injecting hyaluronic acid can stimulate the natural production of collagen.
Juvéderm is available at Hybrid Dental in Las Vegas and the surrounding area. This dermal filler is designed to target lines around a patient's mouth or nose and plump lips and cheeks as needed. Our practitioners are happy to discuss the results you wish to see and determine which Juvéderm treatment will most benefit you. Call us at (702) 628-5807 to schedule an appointment.
Benefits of Juvéderm
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that restores facial volume and minimizes signs of aging. People who choose Juvéderm are typically pleased with how natural it looks. This treatment gives the face a subtle, brighter look without dramatically changing the shape.
Another benefit of the treatment is that it is not permanent. If patients do not love their results, they can wait for the ingredients to wear off over a few months and for their face and skin to return to its original state. These injections also contain a small amount of lidocaine, which reduces any pain or discomfort during the procedure.

Candidacy for Juvéderm
Juvéderm is a safe procedure for most people. Nearly any adult looking to enhance their facial appearance is a potential candidate. The individual needs of patients determine which of the types will be most beneficial. These include:
- Juvéderm Ultra XC: This treatment enhances the fullness of lips. The infusion of hyaluronic acid leaves behind a soft, plump upper and lower lip. It also works to smooth away vertical smile lines around the mouth.
- Juvéderm XC: This solution increases collagen and skin elasticity to reduce signs of aging and plump cheeks. It effectively diminishes the appearance of lines around the mouth and nose. It works for moderate to severe folds and wrinkles.
- Juvéderm Volbella XC: This treatment targets lines around the mouth. It also provides subtle plumpness to the lip. It works by adding volume to the skin to fill in lines and wrinkles.
- Juvéderm Vollure™ XC: This solution works much like Juvéderm XC to reduce the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth and nose. It contains a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid, allowing it to last longer. This treatment is also suitable for plumping cheeks.
- Juvéderm Voluma XC: This treatment enhances the appearance of the cheeks. It plumps cheeks with subtle volume. By enhancing contours, this solution gives cheeks a more youthful appearance.
However, the U.S. National Institute of Medicine suggests that anyone expecting to undergo oral surgery avoid Juvéderm for a few weeks leading up to the procedure as the dermal filler could increase the risk of infection.

The Treatment Process
Before the treatment process can begin, patients must have a consultation to discuss their goals for treatment. We will also review the patient's medical history during this initial consultation and determine whether Juvéderm is right for them. Once we approve them for treatment, we will create a treatment plan to produce optimal results. We recommend that patients stop taking medications like blood thinners and ibuprofen before receiving treatment to avoid bleeding and bruising.
During the appointment, we will mark the areas for treatment and begin injecting Juvéderm into the skin. The process typically takes about 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of treatment spots. Patients should avoid sun exposure, strenuous exercise, makeup, and alcohol for 24 hours after treatment. There may be some redness, swelling, itching, or minor discomfort, which will disappear after a few days.

Risks of Juvéderm
When administered by a trained professional, Juvéderm is a generally safe procedure. However, common side effects include:
- Bruising
- Itching
- Lumps or bumps
- Minor pain
- Redness
- Swelling
- Tenderness
On the other hand, when dealing with an inexperienced injector, patients run the risk of unprofessional handling, such as unintentionally injecting Juvéderm into a blood vessel. Risks only multiply when patients decide to handle fillers by themselves, such as with hyaluron pens.

Juvéderm Results
Recovery time after Juvéderm injections is minimal. Many people can see the results of their injections right away. Individual results may vary and can depend on the type of Juvéderm injection.
However, Juvéderm manufacturers claim that results can last between one to two years. One study found that patients who used the product for areas around their faces had an overall mean satisfaction rate of 65.6%. Patients usually return for their next treatment after six months to two years.

Frequently Asked Questions About Juvéderm
Q. Does it hurt to get Juvéderm?
A. Juvéderm injections contain small amounts of lidocaine to minimize the discomfort patients feel during the procedure. Occasionally, practitioners will also administer other types of local anesthetic. Some patients may be sore after the treatment, but any pain should disappear within a few days.
Q. Can Juvéderm be self-administered?
A. There are minimal risks for undergoing Juvéderm treatments from a licensed practitioner, but these risks multiply exponentially when the treatment is not administered by a professional. When not working with a professional, patients have a higher chance of accidentally puncturing a blood vessel — leading to permanent scarring.
Q. How long does it take to administer Juvéderm?
A. Depending upon the type of Juvéderm used, the treatment process lasts anywhere from 15 minutes to one hour. Results typically last up to a year. Receiving re-treatments could periodically make the results last longer.
Q. How are patients restricted after receiving Juvéderm?
A. Patients can resume their normal routines soon after receiving this treatment. However, they should avoid makeup and excess exposure to sunlight for the first 24 hours following the procedure. Patients should also avoid taking certain medications such as ibuprofen and aspirin for the first few days as these could cause swelling.
Q. How quickly are results seen after Juvéderm?
A. Patients who experience minor inflammation may not see results for a few days, as the swelling must go down for improvements to be noticeable. However, many patients see results immediately after treatment.
Q. When is Juvéderm the right solution for patients?
A. Juvéderm is ideal for patients who want to reduce signs of aging. It fills lines, wrinkles, and indentations in facial skin. It also lifts and volumizes to promote a younger appearance.
