Frequently Asked Questions About Juvederm
How Long Does it Take For Juvederm to Work?
You will see effects immediately. Wrinkles should become much less pronounced. Over the next couple of weeks, your skin will naturally absorb and incorporate the hyaluronic acid - giving your face a fuller, less wrinkled appearance.
How Long Does Juvederm Last?
This will vary by the patient - and where you've had the Juvederm treatment. Typically, results do last for up to a year, at which point it will be time for another treatment to maintain your smooth skin.
How Much Does a Juvederm Treatment Cost?
Treatment costs will vary based on your specific treatment plan. As Juvederm is a cosmetic procedure, it likely won't be covered by your health insurance or dental insurance.
You can call our office for pricing details on Juvederm treatment.
What is the Difference Between Botox and Juvederm?
While both cosmetic injectables can be used to remove facial wrinkles, they work in different ways. Juvederm is a substance that naturally occurs in the body. It is able to increase skin volume and potentially stimulate collagen production.
Botox is comprised of botulinum toxin A - which is a neurotoxin that is approved for cosmetic use. A Botox cosmetic procedure works by relaxing the muscles in your face - keeping them static. This can reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Juvederm injections have immediate, pronounced effects that last significantly longer than Botox injections.
Will the Results From Juvederm Look Natural?
Juvederm treated areas look very smooth, natural and blend in well with the surrounding skin. It would be very difficult for anyone to tell that you've had injections.
Are Juvederm Dermal Filler Injections Safe?
Yes, Juvederm was approved by the FDA for cosmetic use over 16 years ago.
Is there a Recovery Time for Juvederm Injections?
Unlike plastic surgery, there is no real recovery period. Unlike an invasive surgical procedure, with Juvederm, you'll come in for your treatment and will be able to drive back home the same day.
You'll want to avoid the sun, heat, strenuous exercise, and alcohol for around 24 hours after treatment. Dr. Murphy will provide you with post-treatment instructions for you to follow.
