Improving Your Skin's Volume With Juvederm

By Melinda Croning


The damaging effects of the sun and aging cause the appearance fine lines, sags, and wrinkles in your skin, and its volume decreases. You can turn back the clock on aged skin by restoring its volume, and filling out the sags and wrinkles. The FDA has approved the Juvederm treatment in Tampa, and although there are numerous treatments available that promise to improve the volume of skin, the results of this treatment last up to one year. Your skin will be noticeably smoother and fuller, reducing the appearance of sags and wrinkles, with volumizing treatments for the skin.

How It Functions

A qualified clinician or doctor, using sterile equipment, performs Juvederm treatments in a clinical setting. Juvederm is a gel that is injected below the surface of the skin. Areas of tissue that have been affected by volume loss are where your doctor injects gel. Because collagen is lost over the years and tissues break down, the gel effectively adds volume to the skin by filling it out, essentially replacing the tissues and the lost collagen. The treatment offers a boost for the facial tissues and gives tissues a smoother appearance by filling out sags, fine lines, and wrinkles. Common problem areas, like smile lines and saggy jowls, are some of the areas that can benefit the most from the gel. Years can be erased from one's appearance with a filler of this type, and touchups are not needed for many months.

The procedure itself is only mildly painful, and some pain can linger for a few days after the procedure. Other filler products don't offer the same smooth texture of the Juvederm gel, which helps diminish the amount of pain that comes with the injecting process. It is possible to alleviate any pain associated with the procedure, such as the injecting of the gel, by numbing the treatment areas topically. Many find that they do not need any numbing while having the procedure performed, but it is an option available, especially to ease your comfort during a first-time procedure.

Why Choose Juvederm?

There are many products on the market that increase the volume and fill skin, so why is Juvederm the best choice? This treatment should be your top choice for numerous reasons. One, the treatment is approved by the FDA, who indicates that the results can last almost one year. Juvederm's effects last longer than other fillers, which are known to work for a short time. This means that you can continue seeing the results while users of other treatments are heading back to their doctors for frequent touch ups. You can enjoy a more effective approach to smile lines in particular with Juvederm, not to mention other areas on the face that Botox might not necessarily handle so well. It makes sense that a different sort of medication would be more ideal in taking care of smile lines, because they are different than wrinkles that appear and disappear.

The University of Michigan Medical School published a study recently showing that dermal fillers could delay, or even reverse, skin cells' aging.

Researchers found that enhancing structural support of the skin with a cross-linked hyaluronic acid filler, such as Juvederm, stimulated fibroblasts to produce collagen, activated production of more fibroblasts (collagen producers), increased blood vessels and improved skin thickness. It also improved other mechanisms of youthful skin.
