I want to get Juvederm injections for the laugh lines around my mouth. Is Juvederm safe? What should I know about the safety of Juvederm?
Answer: Juvederm safety The safety profile of Juvederm is very high, especially for areas like the nasolabial folds (smile lines). It is used very widely. It is on of a class of hyaluronic acid fillers, which are in my opinion the safest of the temporary fillers. Juvederm occasionally causes swelling or bruising in some patients. Your doctor can give you a complete list of potential complications from this filler. This can usually be avoided by certain techniques. Usually we advise first-time Juvederm patients not to have an important social engagement the night of the injection. Juvederm is a bit like paint to an artist, so that each doctor administering Juvederm has their own "style".

Answer: How Safe Is Juvederm? Thanks for the question PrissyMissy. Years ago when collagen was the only option for filling in lines an allergy test was required prior to injection. Nowadays with the advancement of fillers no allergy test is needed. Juvederm is made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring sugar found in the human body. Juvederm can also be reversed if you are unsatisfied. If you are pregnant or nursing be sure to tell your provider. Juvederm has not been studied for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Best of luck! Dr. Kaniff

Answer: Juvederm a very safe product Juvederm, like Restylane, is a dermal filler made of a natural compound called hyaluronic acid (HA). It is a versatile and safe filler, and because the percentage of allergic reactions is so low it does not require a skin test. In the rare event that the results are not what is desired, there is an enzyme that can be injected to dissolve it.
