Using Juvederm To Improve Your Skin's Volume







 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. By restoring volume to your skin, and filling out the sags and wrinkles, you turn back time on the look of your skin. The results of the Juvederm treatment last up to one year, and although there are numerous treatments available that promise to improve the volume of skin, the FDA has approved the Juvederm treatment in Tampa. The appearance of sags and wrinkles will be reduced, and your skin will be noticeably smoother and fuller after a volumizing treatment.

How Does It Work?

A qualified clinician or doctor, using sterile equipment, performs Juvederm treatments in a clinical setting. The Juvederm gel is injected underneath the skin's surface. Your doctor injects gel in the areas of tissue that have been affected by volume loss. 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. Tissues get a smoother appearance because the treatment boosts the facial tissues and fills out wrinkles, sags, and fine lines. 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.

Some pain can linger for a few days after the procedure, and the procedure itself is only mildly painful. 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. To ease your comfort during a first-time procedure, it is an option available, but a lot of people do not need numbing during the procedure.

Why Choose Juvederm?

Why should you choose Juvederm, considering the number of products available to fill skin and increase the volume? You should choose this treatment for many reasons. One, the treatment is approved by the FDA, who indicates that the results can last almost one year. While other fillers are known to work for a short time, none last as long as Juvederm. 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. Wrinkles that appear and disappear are different from smile lines, so it's logical that a different treatment is better at dealing with them.

Dermal fillers might slow, or even reverse, the aging of skin cells, an independent study at the University of Michigan Medical School recently found.

A cross-linked hyaluronic acid filler, such as Juvederm, has been shown by researchers to enhance structural support of the skin, by producing more fibroblasts (collagen producers), stimulating fibroblasts to create collagen, increasing blood vessels and improving skin thickness. It also helped to improve other aspects of young-looking skin.
