Say Goodbye to Wrinkles with Skin Savvy Aesthetics Dermal Filler Treatments

Dermal fillers are smooth gel fillers used to soften unwanted wrinkles and restore natural contours. Great for smile lines, frown lines, cheek contour, chin enhancement, tear troughs, jawline, temple contouring, and, of course, lip volume.

The natural results of dermal filler have been shown to last a year or more in many patients, making the treatment results both immediate and long-lasting. Dermal fillers are great for facial contouring, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, temples, cheeks, and even hands. 

You can have the ease of extra comfort with the addition of lidocaine to each syringe.

Both Juvederm and Restylane are great dermal filler treatments for the correction of wrinkles and folds. They are both composed of hyaluronic acid, which allows them to bind with water and add volume.

Juvederm

Juvederm is an FDA-approved  dermal filler used to restore youthful facial features. It is an injectable dermal filler made with hyaluronic acid. This procedure concentrates on the face, particularly fine lines of the cheeks, lips, and area surrounding the mouth (nasolabial folds). The effects start to show right away and, with the right care, can last up to a year.

How to Maintain Your Juvederm Treatment

After you receive Juvederm injections, it’s very important to drink a lot of water and keep your skin hydrated because hydration will help maintain the results of your treatment. Also, avoid excessive sun exposure and wear sunscreen every day to protect your skin. To limit swelling and bruising, you should also avoid strenuous exercise. 

In order to achieve the best results, it is important to follow your treatment plan as prescribed by your medical aesthetics  provider . This may include getting touch-up injections every six months to a year.

Common side effects of Juvederm include:

  • Redness
  • Lumps or Bumps
  • Bruising
  • Discoloration
  • Pain
  • Firmness

These side effects should only occur at the injection site. If they persist or worsen, please contact your service provider .

Restylane

Restylane is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler that is frequently used to treat wrinkles on the hands and lines beneath the eyes.
