JUVÉDERM in Cleveland, Ohio- A Cosmetic Dermal Filler

Juvéderm in Cleveland, Ohio is the only filler with FDA approval to last up to one year. Juvéderm™ injectable gel is a "next-generation" smooth consistency gel dermal filler that helps to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (nasolabial folds-the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). Over recent years, hyaluronic acid, a complex sugar already found naturally in the body, has become a favored compound for replenishing the areas of the face where the skin's volume and fullness been lost. Juvéderm™ comes in two formulations-Juvéderm™ Ultra and Juvéderm™ Ultra Plus. Juvéderm™ is indicated for injection into the mid to deep dermis for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds).

Juvéderm™ is different from other fillers in that it is the ONLY hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA approved to last up to 1 year.* The Allergan company (makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic) make HA by a unique process that provides a high concentration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid for long-lasting results. It also works to create a smooth consistency gel that flows easily into the skin and provides a smooth, natural look and feel. All other currently approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are made of granular consistency gels. And, Juvéderm™ is the first hyaluronic acid dermal filler that has demonstrated its safety and effectiveness in persons of color.

Juvéderm™ is indicated for injection into the mid to deep dermis for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds).

Injections may cause some discomfort during and after the injection. The smooth consistency gel of Juvéderm in Cleveland, Ohio allows Drs. Diamantis and Goldschmidt the ability to administer it easily and smoothly. Juvéderm™ is injected directly into the skin using a fine needle to reduce injection discomfort. Your doctor may choose to numb (anesthetize) the treatment area to further minimize discomfort.

Most side effects of injection are mild or moderate in nature, and their duration is short lasting (7 days or less). The most common side effects include, but are not limited to, temporary injections site reactions such as redness, pain/tenderness, firmness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, itching, and discoloration. As with all skin injection procedures there is a risk of infection.
