Juvéderm® North Hollywood, CA
Juvéderm is a popular filler injected into the face to help skin appear younger and more supple. Various Juvéderm treatments are available to address specific problem areas on faces and minimize the signs of aging. These injections can treat thinning lips, deepening wrinkles, and lost skin elasticity and facial volume.
Juvéderm is available at CDC Dental Center in North Hollywood and the surrounding area. Our team works with patients to design the right course of treatment. Call us at (818) 578-2325 to learn more about our services or 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.
“Nearly any adult dissatisfied with signs of aging is a potential candidate.”
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 at Home
Unfortunately, there have been reports of patients undergoing "discount" Juvéderm treatments out of private homes. Beware of these offers and understand that Juvéderm is not something to administer at a home party. These situations may lead to adverse reactions, poor results, infections, or worse.
The incorrect administration of fillers can cause blindness, tissue necrosis, and even death. There is also the risk of receiving fake fillers that contain unknown and potentially dangerous ingredients. Patients should only receive Juvéderm from licensed medical practitioners to ensure safety.

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.
