Juvederm Ingredients - How is Juvederm Made?

Juvederm is a syntetic hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar-water molecule that makes up the normal skin’s infrastructure, cushioning the collagen and providing support.

Juvederm is comprised of Hyaluronic acid which is a natural ingredient in the skin. Since Juvederm occurs naturally in the body there is a very rare incidence of allergy to the product and there is no skin test required unlike past fillers such as collagen or newer ones such as Bellafill. Juvederm is made in the laboratory from bacterial cultures and is not an animal based hyaluronic acid. Juvederm is composed of a gel which can be molded for various areas of the face to plump wrinkles and fill hollows.  Juvederm Voluma is one of the best fillers for the mid-face to give an immediate lift to the face and cheek area.  Juvederm Volbella is used for the fine lines around the mouth for wrinkles.  Juvederm Ultra plus is a great product for wrinkles in the nasolabial lines and to plump up the lifts.  The key is to consult a board certified dermatologist who is an expert in cosmetic injections for the best results.  Best, Dr. Green

Juvederm is just one form of hyaluronic acid filler. Hyaluronic acid  is naturally found in your body.  Juvederm specifically is derived in the laboratory from bacterial cultures.
