What Areas Does JUVÉDERM® Treat?
JUVÉDERM® can help add volume and youthfulness to many different parts of your face. It can help reverse the effects of aging and help you look much younger. As we age, our skin can develop more wrinkles, become more saggy, and lose its elasticity. These effects of aging can take a toll on your confidence and happiness. JUVÉDERM® can help fill in these wrinkles, tighten the skin, and improve skin elasticity, smoothness, and texture. This treatment can help restore your confidence, and help you feel and look more beautiful. These Dermal Fillers can help correct the following areas:
- Nasolabial folds (parentheses lines)
- Corners of the mouth
- Marionette lines
- Lips
- Cheeks
- Lines around the mouth
- Tear troughs/ hollows under the eyes
How Does JUVÉDERM® Work?
JUVÉDERM® replenishes the hyaluronic acid that has been absorbed over time to restore volume and help you achieve a more youthful appearance. A good candidate for this treatment would be someone wanting to smooth lines and wrinkles on their face, fill their facial folds, augment their lips, re-volumize their cheeks, and smooth the lines around their mouth (perioral area).
A consultation with one of our team members in Sarasota, FL, is always conducted first to ensure that you are a good candidate for JUVÉDERM® before scheduling your appointment.
Are JUVÉDERM® treatments Painful?
Since JUVÉDERM® is applied via injections, numbing cream or anesthesia can be applied to help reduce any discomfort or minor pain. Generally speaking, the treatment is not painful at all, and any minor pain or discomfort is temporary. There is little to no downtime, and you’ll be able to return back to your daily tasks as soon as treatment is done in our office.
When Will I Be Able To See Results?
With many other treatments, it can take weeks or months to start seeing results. JUVÉDERM® is such a convenient and effective treatment because you’ll be able to see your stunning results almost instantly after a treatment session. This is one of the reasons why JUVÉDERM® is such a popular treatment in the world of cosmetic and beauty treatment. Results can sometimes last up to an entire year before you need another treatment session to get those same stunning results again.
Am I a Good Candidate For JUVÉDERM®?
JUVÉDERM® treatment is suitable for all skin types and tones. However, it is important to note that this treatment may not be suitable for all people. This treatment is not recommended for the following people due to safety concerns:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Anyone below the age of 18
- Allergies to the ingredients in JUVÉDERM®
- Taking certain medications such as blood thinners
Good candidates for JUVÉDERM® are those with good overall health. Other good candidates include those who do not smoke and still have good skin elasticity. The best candidates for JUVÉDERM® are individuals who are looking to improve their skin texture and quality and enhance their beauty and youthfulness.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do JUVÉDERM® fillers last?
JUVÉDERM® fillers typically last 6-18 months, depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual factors such as skin type. Some patients may notice that their results last longer with repeated treatments.
How do I prepare for a JUVÉDERM® treatment?
To prepare for a JUVÉDERM® treatment, you should:
- Avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements, like aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil, for at least a week before the procedure.
- Refrain from drinking alcohol and smoking, which can increase the risk of bruising.
- Discuss any medical conditions, medications, or previous treatments with your provider to ensure the best outcome.
What is the difference between JUVÉDERM® and BOTOX®?
- JUVÉDERM® is a dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid, designed to add volume, smooth lines, and enhance facial contours. It is typically used in the lips, cheeks, and nasolabial folds.
- BOTOX is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes facial muscles to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, typically around the forehead and eyes.
Can Juvederm be combined with other treatments?
JUVÉDERM® is often used alongside BOTOX to address volume loss and dynamic wrinkles. Additionally, it can be paired with treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy to improve skin texture and overall appearance. Your provider can create a customized plan that combines treatments based on your aesthetic goals.
What should I expect during the recovery period after JUVÉDERM® injections?
You may have some minor swelling, bruising, or redness, which typically goes away within a few days. Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol for at least 24 hours after the treatment. Most patients return to regular activities immediately.
