The Way It Works
Juvéderm injections work to diminish moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles, folds, and fine lines through its primary active ingredient: hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a moisture-binding sugar molecule that occurs naturally in your body and is a major structural component of your skin. It acts as a hydrating agent and keeps the skin plump, strong, firm, and hydrated. This is why it’s known as the body’s “internal moisturizer”.

Meeting Expectations
The results of Juvéderm are typically visible immediately after injection. Bruising and swelling, which can be reduced with ice, should subside within the next few days. The dermal filler is highly potent as the injection can last six to 18 months. Moving forward, your specialist may recommend supplemental treatments to achieve and maintain optimal correction of aesthetic concerns.
The Step-by-step Procedure Of Juvéderm Injections
Before treatment, your Nubo Spa specialist will thoroughly clean the targeted skin with an antiseptic, and will then mark the injection sites. After preparation, a fine needle is gently inserted into the targeted area. The needle penetrates the surface layer and moves into deeper dermal layers to deliver the filler, adding volume and smoothening age-related wrinkles, fine lines, and folds. Because Juvéderm contains lidocaine to improve comfort, an anesthetic may not be needed. However, your physician can provide a topical anesthetic before injection on the area to be treated before giving the injection.
Safe Procedures Still Come With Risks
Although Juvéderm products are is considered safe, there’s still the potential for side effects. They are usually limited to the injection site and include the following:
- Redness
- Pain or tenderness
- Firmness
- Swelling
- Lumps or bumps
- Bruising
- Itching
