What is Juvéderm?
Juvéderm is a dermal filler composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally-occurring compound found in your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant which keeps youthful skin soft, smooth, and supple. As your body begins to age, it loses its ability to produce hyaluronic acid as it once did, resulting in lines and creases, dryness, and areas of skin laxity. Injections of Juvéderm in NYC can restore youthful fullness while reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles for a more appealing look.
How is Juvéderm used?
Juvéderm is a smooth, adaptable filler ideal for facial volume enhancement. When applied with precision by skilled injectors, it blends seamlessly with your natural features. This is why selecting a practitioner with advanced aesthetic training and an eye for proportion is crucial. Juvéderm is well-suited for:
- Softening hollows of the eyes or cheeks
- Refining the appearance of nasolabial folds
- Softening marionette lines
- Enhancing facial contours
- Creating more supple, fuller lips
What should I expect during treatment with Juvéderm?
Treatment with Juvéderm in New York at Alinea Medical Spa is quick, easy, and virtually painless. Juvéderm products contain lidocaine, so you may be comfortable during the volume restoration process. In addition, a topical numbing cream will be applied to ensure your ultimate comfort. Although injections of facial fillers are becoming increasingly popular, they require both an artistic eye and a careful hand in their administration. Our experienced doctor will deliver a series of tiny injections to the treatment area to ensure your results look lovely and natural. Most injections can be performed in less than 30 minutes.
Will there be any recovery required following treatment?
Since injections of Juvéderm are non-surgical, no downtime is required following treatment. You should avoid alcohol for 24 hours both before and after your injections, and avoid strenuous physical activity for one day following your injections.
It is important that you not touch or rub areas which have been injected to avoid spreading of the filler to unintended locations. You may experience mild redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. This is normal and should subside within a day or two.

When will I notice results?
While you will notice some results from Juvéderm immediately following your appointment, they will continue to refine for two weeks following your procedure. Results with Juvéderm are long-lasting and can be enjoyed for up to one year. In order to continue to enjoy its volume restoration benefits, maintenance injections will need to be administered as advised.
