The signs of aging don’t discriminate. You could be in your 60s or in your 30s and still experience the tell-tale signs of skin that has lost its more youthful appearance. Laugh lines around the mouth, crow’s feet around the eyes, and a deepened furrow in your brow can all give the appearance that you’re older than you are. Thankfully, Dr. Pamela Henderson can help reduce the appearance of these creases with Juvederm in Scottsdale.
Juvederm is a non-surgical treatment, created with injectable hyaluronic acid. This substance is naturally produced in the body, with the largest volume of it found in the skin, as well as the connective tissue and eyes. It helps retain water within the body, to keep your tissues moist and lubricated. When you have a healthy amount of HA in your body, your skin appears plump and youthful. As the levels deplete, skin becomes dry and wrinkly.
Juvederm comes in a variety of options, designed to target specific areas of concern. During your consultation, Dr. Henderson will discuss the condition of your skin and the areas you would like to treat. Using the plan you create together, she will use the correct treatment tailored to provide you with your desired results.
Juvederm Voluma XC
Juvederm Voluma XC is used to treat age-related loss of volume in the cheeks and lips. It is injected deep within the cheek to increase volume into sagging tissue, adding a fuller appearance. The contours of your cheeks will be more defined for up to two years.
Juvederm Ultra XC
Designed for the lips, Juvederm Ultra XC is used to add fullness to the lips. Individuals with naturally thin lips can experience a more pronounced look. This treatment can be used to further enhance the look of the patient’s lips, or to just make them more defined and featured on the face. It can also be used in the perioral area around the mouth. Treatment lasts for up to one year.
Juvederm Volbella XC
Juvederm Volbella XC was created as a subtler treatment for lips. Patients experiencing thinning of the lips or with vertical lines around their lips have found Volbella to offer the results they desire. Similar to Juvederm Ultra XC, Volbella lasts for up to one year.
Juvederm XC
Juvederm XC addresses moderate to severe wrinkles and nasolabial folds around the mouth and nose. The injectable gel smooths the appearance of these lines, making them less pronounced so the facial features are softer. Results last up to one year, allowing you to smile without marionette and corner lines.
Juvederm Vollure XC
Juvederm Vollure XC adds volume to soften moderate to severe wrinkles and nasolabial fold lines. Patients can soften drastic appearing parentheses lines and marionette lines that add harsh lines to their appearance. Vollure has been proven to provide lasting results for up to 18 months.
