Juvederm® Naturally Erases Lines Around Your Nose and Mouth in O'Fallon

Juvederm® Naturally Erases Lines Around Your Nose and Mouth
Studies have actually shown that people who smile more live longer and have more satisfying lives than those who do not smile very often. Because smiling is an overlooked, yet powerful way to feel good and spread happiness, we decided that offering natural, smile-restoring Juvederm® treatments would take our patients’ feelings of well-being to the next level.

Juvederm® is a gel filler that is administered and applied by a medical provider to the areas around the nose and mouth where smile lines often appear. Just one application erases these fine to moderate lines. First, the gel is infused with hyaluronic acid (HA). HA is a naturally-occurring substance present in younger, healthier skin, but it diminishes as we age and are exposed to the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Normally, HA binds moisture to the skin. When HA levels decrease, the skin’s ability to retain moisture decreases and the structure of the skin deteriorates, which gives way to wrinkles. Juvederm® replenishes your skin’s HA levels to improve your skin’s structure and moisture levels while smoothing out fine lines.

Usually, one application is enough to significantly reduce the appearance of these fine lines for up to an entire year. Our nurse practitioner injects the smooth gel under the patient’s skin to fill out and instantly remove the fine lines marking your smile areas. Because Juvederm® also includes lidocaine, which is a local, topical anesthetic, the process is quite comfortable. And while there are many injectable gel fillers on the market today, Juvederm® is the only one approved by the FDA specifically for the purpose of treating moderate facial folds.
