Dermal filler injections are among the most popular cosmetic procedures in the United States with over a million injections performed every year. Within the dermal filler category, hyaluronic acid fillers are by far the most popular due to their good safety profile and versatility. Two filler manufacturers offer hyaluronic acid fillers–Restylane and Juvederm. Both are about equal in usage and most providers offer both. Northwest Face & Body offers the best Juvederm Bellevue and Kirkland provides.
Juvederm Before & After Photos
Case 01
Juvederm is a type of cosmetic injectable known as a dermal filler. It is injected for two main purposes: to fill hollows and wrinkles or to augment areas of the face. Primarily used on the face, dermal fillers like Juvederm are among the top non-surgical procedures for anti-aging. With millions of filler injections performed every year, it is an extremely popular and versatile tool for looking younger and achieving your ideal facial aesthetic.
Within facial fillers, some subcategories refer to what the filler is made out of. Juvederm belongs to the largest and most used classification: hyaluronic acid fillers. This means that Juvederm is lower risk than semi-permanent fillers and can treat more places such as the lips.
The master injectors at Northwest Face & Body are masters at using Juvederm to artfully augment and fill in facial features. Northwest Face & Body provides the best Juvederm Bellevue and Kirkland offers.
Treatment Areas:
Juvederm has many applications across the face. Some of the areas Juvederm can treat include:
Advantages Of Hyaluronic Acid Based Fillers
Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the body, the largest concentrations of which are in the eyes and joints. Therefore, while rejection or allergy to the filler is possible, it is highly unlikely. Another major benefit of hyaluronic acid filler is that they have a natural reversal agent, hyaluronidase.
When injected, it breaks up the filler. If you experience major side effects or complications or end up unhappy with your new look, there is an easy antidote. This also increases the safety of hyaluronic acid fillers when compared with other types of fillers. If occlusion (the injection of filler into a blood vessel) or an adverse event occurs, it can be immediately addressed in the office.
While it may not seem like an advantage at first, the temporary nature of hyaluronic acid fillers allows patients to stop treatments whenever they want, try out various filler options, and try out different looks each time. This experimentation allows patients to find the exactly right filler option and technique for them.
Types Of Juvederm Filler
Juvederm makes a few different fillers that each have a slightly varied consistency and tend to be used in different areas. The main Juvederm offerings are Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, and Juvederm Voluma. Your master injector can discuss each option with you in detail and help determine which is best for the area you are treating and your goals.
- Ultra: Normally used as a lip filler, Juvederm Ultra can also treat the nasolabial folds. Typically, Ultra is considered among the thinnest of Juvederm’s fillers. It lasts on average around three to six months.
- Ultra Plus: Contains lidocaine for improved comfort and is also used for dramatic lip augmentation. It is also used in the nasolabial folds. Slightly thicker than Ultra, it has a few more uses and sometimes is used in the cheeks or chin. It is versatile and great for volume loss and facial wrinkles. Juvederm Ultra Plus also lasts around six months, though can last longer in some places and individuals.
- Voluma: Among the longest lasting hyaluronic acid option, Voluma is typically used in the chin or cheeks. It can last up to two years. Out of all hyaluronic acid fillers, it is often considered the one that lasts the longest.
Before & After Juvederm Injections In Bellevue
Consultation
The first step for undergoing Juvederm filler injections in Bellevue is to attend a consultation with a master injector. At this appointment, your master injector will ask you about your goals, medical history, history with fillers, and lifestyle. They may also briefly examine the area to evaluate the skin quality, thickness, and other factors that influence the filler choice and process.
If they believe you are a good candidate for your chosen procedure, they will discuss the many fillers you have to choose from. In some cases, you may undergo filler injections the same day. Otherwise, you can schedule your appointment at your convenience or before leaving the office.
Injection Process
First, your master injector will prep the injection sites. This involves disinfecting the areas with alcohol and cleansing them of any makeup or environmental debris. After this, they will likely apply topical numbing cream. This will sit for around ten to twenty minutes. During this time, your injector will prepare the Juvederm.
Your master injector will then begin the filler injections. Depending on the treatment, they may use a needle or cannula. If using a needle, they will start injections immediately. With a cannula, they will make a small entry point for the cannula using a small needle. After inserting the needle or cannula they will slowly inject the filler. They may move the needle within the injection point or inject at multiple sites to add volume evenly for the ideal results.
For most areas, the injections themselves do not take longer than about ten to fifteen minutes. You can have multiple areas treated at the same time. Along with the topical numbing cream, the Juvederm contains a small amount of lidocaine to help ease the filler as it is injected.
Aftercare
In the days following the injections, you may notice some common side effects such as:
- Swelling
- Bruising
- Redness
- Discomfort
- Itchiness
- Lumps
For the most part, these side effects should clear up in a week or two. For a day or two following Juvederm injections, your master injector may recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol, and certain blood-thinning medications and supplements.
Your filler will continue to settle for about two weeks. If you still notice lumps, unevenness, or the result does not fit your goals after two weeks, our master injectors can perform a quick touch up.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Do Juvederm Fillers Last?
The amount of time you can enjoy your Juvederm filler results depends on the type of filler you received and the treatment area. Not to mention, there are various biological and environmental factors at play.
Most hyaluronic acid fillers last anywhere between three and six months. Though some areas like the under eyes and temples may last longer since there is not as much facial movement in those areas.
Who Should Not Use Juvederm?
Despite being a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure, certain people are not good candidates for Juvederm fillers. Some factors which influence candidacy include:
- Blood or bleeding disorders
- Recent or current cancer treatment
- Heart disease
- Major autoimmune disorder
- Known allergies to ingredients in the filler
- Active infection (particularly in the treatment areas)
How Do You Make Fillers Last Longer?
There is no guaranteed way to make dermal fillers last longer. Though, if you follow the aftercare instructions and live a relatively healthy lifestyle, this helps promote the longest lasting fillers possible. Some tips for helping your Juvederm fillers last longer include:
- Stay hydrated
- Exercise, but avoid overexercising
- Maintain a healthy diet
- Avoid unnecessarily touching the area
- Take good care of your skin
- Always wear sunscreen
- Limit and manage stress
- Stop or refrain from smoking (especially with lip filler)
- Reduce alcohol consumption
Is Voluma The Best Juvederm Filler?
Juvederm Voluma is often touted as the longest lasting hyaluronic acid filler available. In ideal circumstances, it can last up to two years. To many, this may signal that it is the best Juvederm filler. However, it largely depends on the area and patient.
For example, Juvederm Voluma is not usually suitable or recommended for the lips. Its most common uses are in the chin and cheeks. It is a thicker filler. Therefore, it is not best for the fleshier areas such as the lips or under eyes.
Whether or not Voluma is the best Juvederm filler for you is based on the treatment area, the facial contours you want, and other similar factors. Your master injector will discuss this with you during your consultation.
How Much Are Juvederm Fillers?
The cost of Juvederm in Bellevue depends on the filler you choose and the number of syringes required. Juvederm fillers range from $525 to $850 per syringe. Your injector can give you a more accurate estimate after a consultation.
