Nerve Block for Juvederm in Nose Crease or Smile Lines?

Is Juvederm Only Sold by Two Vials? I went to see my plastic surgeon to have Juvederm added to my Rhinoplasty surgery in two weeks. I have already gotten Juvederm about a month and a half ago and its holding up well, so I just wanted a little bit to correct some very mild unevenness. He saw what I did and approved this but didn't specify the amount of Juvederm. However, the change is minimal and having had it done before I knew one vial was going to be enough.

When I went over to the financial lady she quoted me for two vials, when I asked her to double check she said they can only be purchased in 2's because thats how they're packaged. Has anyone every heard of this? Why would the packaging matter if each vial is sterile?

Normally I'd think they're just trying to rip me off but this the chair of PS at university hospitals - A very large and well known hospital in the area so I have a hard time believing it. The doctor is always busy so I didnt want to argue and just paid it but now I'm thinking I shouldnt have given up $550 so easily.

A: Miscommunication?

It's true. Juvederm is sold by the manufacturer (Allergan) only in boxes of 2 syringes. But, many surgeons/derm/etc will sell the syringes individually. As you said, they are packaged separately in a sterile fashion within the box. The confusion may have been in the amount that you thought you needed and how much your surgeon thought you needed. I would definitely call back to check on it. If you only need one syringe and you have to buy two, then they should be able to hold the other syringe for you until you need it again in 9 months to a year. Give them a call.

	“Juvederm Ultra for Acne Scars - New...” I've now had Juvederm injected twice for rolling acne scars on my cheeks. It makes a tremendous difference. The first time it was just regular juvederm which lasted about 2 months and cost $500. The second time I got jevederm ultra which was about 4 months ago. There is still some improvement but I am thinking of going in soon for another round. I have to say I think it looks WAY better... more

	“Juvederm Paralyzed my Smile” I had juvederm injected in the upper left lip/vermillion ONLY to even out with the other right upper lip/vermillion. I had three injections a few months apart. After the first two injections a slight ball formed above the lip line. Eventually the ball smoothed down to a slight mound above the lip line. Initially I just thought the small sphere-like ball was just swelling. And/or I thought it... more
	“Juvederm for Smile Lines and Botox...” Dr gave an injection under my lip to numb prior to injecting the juvederm. Use one 1 syringe on my smile lines. No marks or pain. I also did botox on my furrow.I'm in my early 40's and wish I did it sooner! So far, no side effects. more
	“Juvederm in my Tear Troughs,...” I had Juvederm injected into my tear troughs, nasolabial folds, and the corners of my mouth last Monday.It's exactly a week later and although my tear troughs look great (despite a little bruising), something awful seems to be going on with my lower face. It feels like the Juvederm has moved from my nasolabial folds to my the sides of my upper lip! It feels like there's two pockets of Juvederm... more

	“Juvederm for Tear Troughs--what a...” I'm a 48 year old male with relatively few wrinkles, but I've had sunken eyes since the age of 15 that have always bothered me. In reading about restalayne and juvederm, I found out that they were able to fill in the tear trough to take away that "constantly tired" look.WOW--what an amazing difference. more
	“Juvederm for NL Folds.” I was extremely nervous as I am new to cosmetic procedures. I researched for months in Chicago online about juvererm and spent time looking for the right plastic surgeon. I decided to go with a Dr. in NYC who came highly recommended when I was there on business.I had it done on a Friday and was able to go to work on Monday. Very minimal downtime. I had slight bruising that was not noticeable... more
	“Juvederm - Discomfort in Nasolabial...” I had juvederm in my bio-nasal folds because they appeared very pronounced. They do appear reduced but I can feel very firm ridges even after 5 weeks and feel like my mouth is stiff and have the sensation that I am drooling, even though I'm not.I'm not sure I would do it again. more
	“Juvederm for Thin Upper Lip” Had less than one vial of Juvederm injected into my very thin upper lip 3 days ago to get a very low-key, natural looking lip plump. The day after the procedure was scary, as my lip swelled up to Daffy Duck size and I have a small dark bruise on the inner lip. The swelling has gone down everyday since then, but I can really 'feel' two lumps of Juvederm in my lips. My lips look good now, but... more
	“4 Days Later, Very Happy, but Before...” I am 50, have had injections with different fillers for many years, have always been pleased with results. I have had small bumps, swelling etc which have never lasted more than 24 hours. However, I decided to try a new doctor, Juviderm Ultra Plus, which I have never used, and had 3 huge bumps on one side and 2 on the other. I layed low, figuring they'd be gone the next morning--not! I was... more
	“Post Juvederm Problems” I had juvederm injected into my smoker's lines (quit 16 years ago!)and a day later I am all swollen, bruised and there is absolutely no difference in the lines. I have lumps around the lines now.Will the lumps disappear? Will the smoker's lines fill out or was it done incorrectly?I am very upset about this as it was quite expensive for just four little lines. more
	“Juvederm Made Me Sick.” Immediately after getting Juvederm injection to my nasolabial folds, I started feeling like I was getting a cold. After I came home and took a nap, I woke up with a very sore throat, fever, and tingling in my chest. It felt very much like a flu. The symptoms later went on to painful eyes, sinuses, and extreme fatigue.5 months later I still suffer from extremely inflamed sinuses, even though no... more
	“Works Well So Far” I am 41 years old and had Juvaderm placed two days ago due to the development of nasolabial folds. The folds, at this point, were mild. I can already see a substantial change so this is a big pro: immediate results. The amount of material used was minimal (1cc) and the cost was very reasonable ($600). Cons: slight bruising, tenderness, slight swelling and red marks at injection site for a... more
	“Juvederm Rocks! Doc Did It a New Way!” I just had my yearly injections of Juvederm on the nasal folds and marionette lines. I had two vials and this is my third year using it. The first time I used restalyne and it lasted about a month and a half. I was very upset so my PS gave me juvederm ultra. It was great and lasted a year. I go every March since then. This year instead of getting a dental block my plastic surgeon suggested... more
	“1st Time Juvederm User - Now I'm Hooked!” After reading about everyone's experiences over the past few weeks, I finally had it done on my nasolabial folds at my dermatolgists on Tuesday. I was terrified to mess with my face. But now I'm so happy I did it!! My doctor did an excellent job and I feel like I've wiped a few years off my face! I'll about to turn 35. In the past I've always heard that I look much... more
	“I Still Look Like a Chipmunk” I had juvederm injected 4 weeks ago on my minor parenthesis and I still look like a chipmunk. I went back today and he said there was nothing he could do but let it wear away. Prior to todays visit I had read on Realself it was possible to inject hyaluronidase. He said he didn't have any and would have to order and could inject me next week. My question is should I trust him considering he... more
	“Not Too Happy” I have a fairly thin upper lip and have always had to "draw" outside of my lips to make them look bigger.i started doing my research on lip injections since i was too scared to get a surgery and honestly wasn't sure if i could afford it.finally after a lot of arguing with my husband i got juvederm.i cant say the procedure was completely pain free but it wasn't SO bad without the block.well its... more
	“Love the Results, but Not at First” I spent $650 in NYC to have Juvederm (.8 cc) injected into both my upper and lower lips. I advise you to have the procedure performed when you have at least 2-3 days to recover. I did mine on a Friday evening and by Sunday, I was pleased with the appearance. The doctor injected me with Lidocaine (numbing medication), but to be honest, it didn't relieve the discomfort as much as he... more
	“Love the Results, I Hope They Last!” I'm in my mid twenties and had hollowness under my eyes ever since I was a kid. I guess it got slightly more pronounced as I got older so I had to get better at concealing it. I had good concealer days but you couldn't hide the tear trough depression no matter how great the concealer was so I finally decided to treat myself and get them filled in. I only got one syringe and used about one... more
	“So So.....Nothing So Wonderful or...” I had this done for nasolabial folds/lines about 6 or 7 months ago in Staten Island, NY....results were only a bit improved...but improved, nonetheless. She always rushes the patient and never uses any numbing cream whatsoever. Juvederm lasts 6 months and no longer, no matter what the hype or misleading televison commerical says. Don't be fooled. Anyway, since this borough of NYC is in... more
	“FAT Upper Lip - I Look Like a DUCK” I had several procedures during one surgery session. Upper eye-lids, a NEW Nose (but I still see the same Nose) and the upper lip with Juvederm. Lets just say that everything did not go as I had expected with all three procedures. As for the Juvederm in my upper lip - It is almost 3+ weeks and I still look like a DUCK. That's right my upper lip is sticking out like a duck. For the... more
	“Juvederm Seems Better Than Restylane” My doctor was selected to provide past restylane injection patients with juvederm in place of it. hated the restylane injections becs they hurt bad! Funny how no one talks about that anywhere on the doctor websites! my avg restyline treatment could last upwards 4 months...a far cry from the up to 1 year i've read. so the juvederm injection was about 3 mos ago and i'm liking the... more
