Dermal Fillers

What is Juvederm?

Juvederm is a family of dermal fillers that uses hyaluronic acid to address the signs of aging and improve your complexion. Hyaluronic acid is a natural compound that your body produces in plentiful quantities in your youth to keep your skin looking supple and full. As you age, production decreases, resulting in more lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, and thinner cheeks areas and lips. Injections of Juvederm also stimulate the production of collagen, another natural skin-strengthening compound.

Juvederm’s plumping effects can also reduce the appearance of mild scarring, including acne scars.

Dr. Ciccone and Beth Domolky, RN inject the appropriate type of Juvederm into desired treatment areas to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Each product is tailored to address specific problem areas.

What specific skin issues can Juvederm treat?

Juvederm adds volume and structure to aging skin and helps, primarily, to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

We may recommend Juvederm to address:

• Nasolabial folds that run from the nose to the mouth
• Melomental folds that run from the mouth to the chin
• Lines above your upper lip
• Loss of volume in the cheekbones or cheeks and lips
• Hollowing or wrinkling under the eyes
• Frown lines
• Lip plumping

Dr. Ciccone and Beth Domolky, RN evaluate your look to help you determine exactly how to use the fillers to look naturally refreshed and younger.

How long do the effects of Juvederm last?

The results of Juvederm last between 18 and 24 months, depending on the area treated and how your skin responds to treatment. Dr. Ciccone and Beth Domolky, RN  can repeat treatments so your new look is maintained. Ask then about setting up a regular treatment plan so there is no lapse in your look.

Do dermal filler injections hurt?

Injections of Juvederm do require a needle, so you feel a slight pinch and possibly some stinging as the filler enters. The treatment sessions are rather quick and Dr. Ciccone and Beth Domolky, RN can use a topical numbing cream or ice to ease discomfort. Most people tolerate treatment quite well.
