My derm told me there's no difference between juvederm and restylane. She said both gave long lasting natural looking results for wrinkle treatment. but googled juvederm and their official site sure makes it sound more effective. Has anyone heard about Juvederm side effects?

Seems like a lot of people feel fillers are so safe. Even I felt confident going to my doctor for Juvederm Ultra Plus (injected into nasolabial folds). Let me warn you, be very careful who does the procedure. I was left with cellulitis and staph infection in my face. Hospitalised for 3 days then on a pic line with IV for 2 months. Doctor said if I hadnt sought treatment, I would have died. Its...

In our Juvéderm community many people look back on their experiences and say, 'I wish I had known...' some information prior to undergoing this popular filler treatment. Here are 11 tips from RealSelf community members that you may find helpful.  1. Juvéderm is for wrinkles...and more. Many people use Juvéderm to treat wrinkles and lines. But there are other reasons to choose it...

My juviderm lip result is awful. It is too big and mis-shaped. I think it is worse than ever. My lip itches, peels, cracks, and bleeds constantly (and I have large lump(s)). I am so embarrassed.  I can't face anyone with what will be left after this is dissolved. ANYONE OUT THERE that can help?

I had a very small quantity of juvederm + restylane placed.That night I had a throbbing headache and extreme insomnia (which I never have) tossing and turning and have slept only approximately half hour.There's a huge pressure behind the forehead area and there's no way to fall asleep.In addition I would stop breathing when I was trying to sleep.i don't know if it's due to the bacteria...

My symptoms began almost immediately after numbing wore off. I called my Dr office 3 times within a week to ask what I should do. Everytime they said they had not heard of that but assured me I was in a healing faze. My face felt crazy with burning, pain, tingling, crawling. I finally demanded to be seen to rule out infection. My Dr was very short and rude with me. The first thing he said...

Hello! I had my lips injected with Juvederm yesterday, I was tossing and turning all night, I kept waking up catching myself sleeping with my mouth open which is odd I never sleep with my mouth open, my partner found it odd as well.Anyway I couldn't sleep anymore I felt my face get hot,my head pound and eyes ache is this normal? Most of the swelling went down except for the upper right side of...

I have the same problem. It has been 9 months and i still have the ridges under my eyes. Please contact me if you get an answer.

I am a 34 year old professional woman and as a reward for losing over 2 stone in weight, I decided to get .5 Juvederm Voluma in each cheek only. I felt I lost a lot of weight from my face, which I thought made me look older. I did Botox in my forehead 2 weeks before and it went fine. The doctor used a cannula, so only one incision on each cheek. My main goal was to see how it looked so I...

Looks like alot of us got wiped out on here.   Before I looked into everything I Google this new Juvederm XC n found 3 drs in my area n got all three to tell me price n it was from $700 - $900 each syringe.  One Dr said results are not really immediate.  I've never heard that before.  Anyway I was about to make n appointment but glad I went the other way instead.  I'm...

That's right! The past two times that I have gone, I have passed out while the needle is in my lip! I'm able to alert the doc right before it happens so nothing bad has ever happened but it's so uncomfortable! I'm calm going in so I don't believe it's an "aversion to needles". The first time it happened I was getting botox in the forehead. During that session I was also getting my lips done...

I recently had Juvederm injected into my lips and the nasal folds of my face.  The initial reaction was pain and bruising on my lips.  About 4 weeks later I started developing SEVERE chapped lips, both lower and upper lips.  The nasal folds had no adverse reaction whatsoever.I went back to the aesthetician who had injected me and she was at a loss as to why I was having this...

Just wondering how long voluma has actually lasted in real patients. I had 1 mil in at the top of each cheek under the eye area to reduce the appearance of under eye bags. This was done 8 months ago. I am having a complication since voluma where the skin is bunching under the eye when I smile. I am waiting for the voluma to absorb naturally as hyalase scares me but there has been no im...

Heard a lot about Juvaderm, I'd be interested in trying it to get rid of my lines around my eyes and mouth.  Anyone know where can I get juvaderm in Los Angeles or Beverly Hills for Juvaderm?

Hi everyone, I just got juvederm in my cheek area and I HATE it. It didn't make me look like my younger self, just different. And it has increased my nasolabial folds, which were very minimal before. I've heard mixed reviews about hyaluronidase for dissolving it and really don't want to take the risk. SO, thinking of waiting for 6 months until it wears off. However I have questions for those...

I had three vials of Juvederm injected in January.  I'm very pleased with the results and I plan to go back for more when I have the money.  The past several weeks I’ve had intermittent itching and what looks like burn marks on my chin.  Is this normal or is something else and just a coincidence that it happened shortly after my injections?  I use Retin A, but...

About 1.5y ago I got duped into taking 6 vials of Juvederm on my face.  I still have two prominent oblique ridges on either side of my nose, and I dislike these very much.  I know that Juvederm effects can theoretically be reversed with Hyaluronidase, but I have heard from others that the reversal is imperfect and can result in asymmetric bumps and ridges (yikes!) -- as much as I...

Within a couple of hours of injection to lines between nose and mouth I felt dizzy, had headache and felt as though I couldn't enjoy anything. Something felt very wrong but couldn't pin point it. A week later I'm as dizzy as ever and am lacking energy still but it's the dizziness that's affecting me the most. Dr has checked my ears have no problems. I know it's the juverderm. I am rarely Ill...
