Derma Fillers
As we age, the natural volume of our youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds settle in. Dermal Fillers instantly restore your skin’s volume and smooth away deep lines and facial creases. The most common areas treated with Dermal Filler are the nasolabial folds (the crease that runs from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth), the lips, and the cheeks. The results are immediate with minimal downtime.
Juvéderm®:
is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that gently restores volume, smooths out lines and wrinkles, and reduces the appearance of surface depressions like acne scars and skin folds. As we age, the natural volume of our youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds settle in. Dermal Fillers instantly restore your skin’s volume and smooth away deep lines and facial creases. The results are immediate with minimal downtime.
Whether you’d like to enhance your lips or achieve overall facial rejuvenation, Juvéderm®’s extensive line of fillers will help you reach your cosmetic goals.
How It Works:
Juvéderm® harnesses one of the body’s most important skin-plumping substances: hyaluronic acid. During a Juvéderm® treatment, this gel-like substance is gently injected into the areas of concern. Depending on your cosmetic needs, Juvéderm® may be used to fill in surface depressions like acne scars or nasolabial folds, augment the lips and sculpt facial features, or smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.

Ideal Candidates for Juvéderm®:
Ideal candidates for this treatment include healthy men and women who are seeking any of the following:
-
Lip Augmentation: Full, alluring lips can enhance the overall beauty of your face. But due to aging, your lips may have lost volume over time. Or, you might feel that your lips have always been thinner than you’d prefer. For those seeking lip enhancement, Juvéderm® can provide natural-looking lip volume that is completely customized to your ideal aesthetic.
-
Defined Facial Contours: Over time, fat dissipates from the cheeks and other areas of the face. This produces a gaunt look and may cause facial tissues to droop, reducing your overall facial definition. Juvéderm® is commonly used to augment the cheeks to restore lost volume and provide subtle lift. It can also add facial volume for those who feel that their face has always lacked ideal contours.
-
Facial Rejuvenation: Fine lines and wrinkles are some of the most frustrating signs of age to deal with. Whether you’d like to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, smoker’s lines, or nasolabial folds, Juvéderm® can comprehensively treat facial aging. It can also fill in the under-eye area for a bright, youthful look.
Improved Skin Texture: Deep-pitted acne scars and other surface irregularities can disrupt an otherwise even complexion. With Juvéderm®, you can achieve a smooth, even skin texture and reduce the appearance of skin depressions.

HOW DOES BOTOX® COSMETIC WORK?BOTOX® Cosmetic targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines — the repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, smiling and raising the eyebrows over the years. Your specialist will inject these muscles with BOTOX® Cosmetic to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice a visible smoothing of the frown lines between your brows, your crow’s feet lines and your forehead lines.
-
IS THERE A SUBSTITUTE FOR BOTOX® COSMETIC?BOTOX® Cosmetic is a biologic product that cannot be interchanged – or substituted – for another product. In fact, the FDA has stated BOTOX® Cosmetic is “non-interchangeable,” which means that its safety and effectiveness cannot be claimed by any other product. The potency – or strength – of BOTOX® Cosmetic is measured in scientifically defined units that cannot be compared to any other product, due to our unique manufacturing process. There are no substitutes for our product. People who are prescribed a biologic product have a right to know exactly what they are receiving.

IS BOTOX® COSMETIC ONLY FOR WOMEN?Not at all! Many men make BOTOX® Cosmetic part of what they do to care for their appearance. The number of men choosing treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic has risen fast – in the past three years alone, men have received over one million botulinum toxin treatments. When surveyed, the majority of men say they want to look good and they’re bothered by the changes they see in the mirror. 80% would choose to treat their crow’s feet first, while 74% would prioritize their forehead lines, and 60% would most like to treat their frown lines.† †Results from a survey of men to determine most likely treatment areas and top areas of concern for injectable-naive, aesthetically-oriented men aged 30 to 65 years (N=600). Proportion of respondents selecting that area as highest priority to treat using the Maximum Difference (MaxDiff) scaling system.

DO I NEED TO BE OVER 40 TO START USING BOTOX® COSMETIC?It's not your age that determines when BOTOX® Cosmetic is right for you, it's the severity of your lines. In fact, 64% of plastic surgeons report seeing a rise in cosmetic surgery or injectable treatments for patients in their early 30’s. The truth is, everyone's lines form differently. The timing can be influenced by a combination of factors, from cellular changes that may occur over time, to reduction of collagen, to genetic factors, or damage caused by free radicals from the sun and the environment. Whenever your lines start to bother you, go speak with your doctor. They can help you determine if treatment is right for you.
-
HOW MUCH TIME DOES BOTOX® COSMETIC TREATMENT TAKE? WILL IT HURT?Your specialist will discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine the appropriate treatment areas for you. If the HCP deems you to be an appropriate candidate, the injection may take place on that same day. Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® Cosmetic feels like a pinch. Your specialist may use ice to numb the treatment area. Or, if you are concerned about discomfort, your specialist may apply a topical numbing cream before administering your treatment. Treatment requires minimal downtime. So you can return to your daily routine immediately after you leave your specialist’s office.
-
WILL I SEE RESULTS QUICKLY? HOW LONG DOES BOTOX® COSMETIC LAST?You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with full results in 30 days, with results lasting up to four months for moderate to severe frown lines. Remember that results vary from patient to patient though, so your physician will plan your next appointment based on your results and aesthetic goals. Start talking about your goals with a specialist today and find out what you could expect.

HOW MANY INJECTIONS WILL I RECEIVE?Treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic is customized to your goals and needs. When you meet with your specialist, he or she will determine the appropriate treatment for any areas you wish to address, including moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines. Remember, only BOTOX® Cosmetic is approved to treat all three of these areas. For the crow’s feet area, your specialist will inject 3 areas of the muscle that frames the side of the eye. This will be repeated on the muscle that frames the other eye. For the frown lines area, your specialist will administer 5 injections into the muscles between your brows and in your forehead. For the forehead lines area, your specialist will administer 5 injections into a muscle in your forehead.

WHAT WERE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS SEEN IN CLINICAL STUDIES?Three percent of patients experienced eyelid drooping in the frown lines studies, one percent of patients experienced eyelid swelling in the crow's feet studies, and one percent of patients experienced brow drooping in the forehead lines studies. Other possible side effects include: dry mouth; discomfort or pain at the injection site; tiredness; headache; neck pain; eye problems: double vision, blurred vision, decreased eyesight and dry eyes; and allergic reactions.

IS THERE A “GENERIC” BOTOX® COSMETIC?There is no such thing as a “generic” form of BOTOX® Cosmetic. Be wary of discount products or “cheap” BOTOX® Cosmetic. Medical formulations, potency, and approved doses vary among products, so no one product can take the place of another. FDA labeling states that BOTOX® Cosmetic is not interchangeable with any other product. If it doesn’t say BOTOX® Cosmetic on the vial, then it isn’t BOTOX® Cosmetic. BOTOX® Cosmetic has a one-of-a-kind formulation. And BOTOX® Cosmetic is the most widely researched and studied treatment of its kind. Backed by more than 16 years of published studies, the safety and efficacy of BOTOX® Cosmetic have been described in 528 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals. Finally, Allergan, the maker of BOTOX® Cosmetic, owns the entire manufacturing and packaging process, which helps ensure the reliability and safety of each vial. For proven results, ask for BOTOX® Cosmetic.
