What is Juvederm?

Juvederm is an injectable smooth gel dermal filler composed of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that already exists in the human body and it gives the skin fullness. It restores natural volume, which tends to decrease with age and sun damage.

What can be expected at a Juvederm treatment?

In an initial complimentary consultation, the doctor will ask about areas of concern to determine where Juvederm will be injected. Juvederm is then injected under the skin to fill in facial wrinkles, folds and to bring fullness to the lips. The results are instantaneous.

Who administers Juvederm at Dr. TATTOFF?

The doctor.

Where can Juvederm be injected?

Juvederm can be injected in the marionette lines, nasal labial folds and the lips.

How long does a Juvederm treatment take?

About 30 minutes.

How long does Juvederm last?

Results are clinically proven to last up to 6 months or longer. In general, we recommend follow-up treatments every 6 months.

Is the Juvederm treatment at Dr. TATTOFF personalized to fit certain needs?

Though Juvederm treatments are not painful, the option of applying a topical anesthetic or having a dental block is available. Treatments at Dr. TATTOFF are personalized to fit the needs of our clients.

Are there any precautions before getting treated?
