JUVEDERM DERMAL FILLER

• Wrinkles, folds and loss of volume can be treated by injections of HA (Hyaluronic Acid), which is known to be a well-tolerated and an effective treatment.

• Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in our body. High concentrations are found in soft connective tissues and in the fluid surrounding our eyes. It's also in some cartilage and joint fluids, as well as skin tissue. It is extracted and reformulated and now has become one of the most popular kinds of injectable fillers.

• Hyaluronic acid is not derived from animal sources. When this gel is injected, it acts like an inflated cushion to support facial structures and tissues that may have lost volume or elasticity due to normal aging. It also brings water to the surface of skin to keep it looking fresh and supple.

The Juvederm VYCROSS Collection adds HA to the skin for smooth and natural results that last for up to two years:

• Juvederm VOLUMA with Lidocaine restores volume loss from deeper areas of the face eg. cheek

• Juvederm VOLBELLA with Lidocaine adds fullness to the lips and reduces any fine lines.

• Juvederm VOLIFT with Lidocaine lessens the appearance of laugh lines

• Potential side effects associated with implantation of this product (redness, pain, swelling, itching, etc.) which may occur immediately or with delay, and may last for a week.

• If such symptoms or any other side effects which develop and persist for more than one week, please contact our doctor

The procedure involves injections using a fine needle or cannula and may only take 15 to 20 minutes, hence there is no need to take time off work. You can discuss with our doctor to have your appointment during lunch hour and then return to your normal routine. There should be minimal downtime for you, however, if you shall experience any unusual symptoms or side effects, please contact our doctor.

It is suitable for eyebags, dark circles, laugh lines, nose and chin augmentation, sagging cheekbones, thin lips, tired eyes, wrinkles and fine lines.
