What Facial Areas Does Juvederm Treat?

Juvederm is used in several different facial areas.  Experienced injectors have areas he or she prefers specifically for Juvederm and performs injections to these areas on a regular basis.   Common areas done by most injectors are: nasolabial folds (smile lines), corners of the mouth (lateral commissures) and lips.   Not all fillers are good in all areas and should be performed by experienced injectors only.  

Juvederm, a hyaluronic acid filler, can be used in many areas of the face.  It is indicated for use in the nasolabial folds- the lines which extend from the corner of the mouth to the nostril.  It can also be used to fill in hollow areas under the eyes however  it must be injected deep in these areas.  Juvederm is also a good choice for lip augmentation.  Some patients have depressed or indented scars which can also respond to filling with Juvederm. Remember this product is not permanent, it lasts anywhere from 6-12 months.

Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist prior to receiving Juvederm.
