QUESTIONS

Juvederm Ultra FAQs

How long does it last?

Between 4-6 months. Usually in the beginning, patients get about only 4 months out of it, but after several consecutive injections, it’s usually more towards the 6 month duration.

What areas does it treat?

  • It is better for small areas (you often need two syringes of Juvederm to one syringe of Radiesse)
  • Lip augmentation – patients get topical numbing before treatment
  • Vertical lip lines (both within and above lip eg. smoker lines)
  • Tear troughs (depression under eyes along bony orbital rim)
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines (puppet lines from corners of mouth to chin)

What are the most common complications?

Bruising and swelling occur in some patients, but varies greatly in severity. It usually completely resolves within 2 weeks.
