Can Juvederm Ultra Plus be used in the lips & will it give significantly more volume than regular Juvederm Ultra?

Hi there! I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Yes, Juvederm Ultra Plus can be used in the lips, and it typically provides more volume than Juvederm Ultra.

Juvederm Ultra Plus can indeed be used for lip augmentation, and it is designed to provide more volume compared to regular Juvederm Ultra. Here are some details regarding its use and effects:

Volume Enhancement: Juvederm Ultra Plus has a thicker consistency than Juvederm Ultra, which allows it to provide more significant volume and is often used for more pronounced augmentation. This can result in fuller lips.

Longevity: Due to its denser formulation, Juvederm Ultra Plus may also last longer, providing sustained volume over time compared to its counterpart.

Lip Border Definition: Juvederm Ultra Plus can be used to enhance both the volume and the height of the lip border, offering a more defined and contoured appearance.

Healing and Results: Post-healing, patients generally notice a more noticeable increase in volume and definition when using Juvederm Ultra Plus compared to Juvederm Ultra. The final outcome, however, will depend on individual factors such as the natural lip shape and the amount of product used.

Consulting with a qualified healthcare provider will help determine the best option for your specific goals and anatomy. They can provide tailored advice and help you achieve the desired results safely.

Both are great products to enhance the appearance of your lips. Ultra plus will give you a fuller pout compared to Ultra XC. If you are looking for more of a significant change, Ultra Plus would be a better choice for you.

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Yes, Juvederm Ultra Plus can be used in the lips, and it does tend to provide more volume than regular Juvederm Ultra. Both products are hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, but Juvederm Ultra Plus has a thicker, more robust formulation compared to regular Ultra. This makes Ultra Plus ideal for areas that require more volume and support, like the lips, especially if you're looking for a more pronounced or plump result. Juvederm Ultra is often used for subtle lip enhancement, where a more natural or soft volume increase is desired. In contrast, Juvederm Ultra Plus is typically used when a more noticeable, volumizing effect is preferred. It’s also a good choice for patients who have slightly more lip volume loss or who want more definition and contour around the lip borders. In terms of the difference in results, Ultra Plus can create a fuller, more defined appearance with fewer injections, as its thicker consistency allows it to stay in place longer and provide more lift. However, it's essential to consider that because of its thicker texture, Ultra Plus might also have a slightly higher chance of causing swelling immediately after the injection compared to regular Ultra, but the results are typically longer-lasting. I hope this helps and best of luck!

Yes Juvederm Ultra Plus can be used in the lips. It may give a little more longevity and volume but may feel more stiff that Juvederm Ultra. Meet with an experienced injector to discuss your desired look and learn more about the options available.
