San Diego Juvéderm – Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Juvéderm cost?
Costs for a Juvéderm injection will be dependent on the amount of filler that is needed to achieve your cosmetic goals. Before your Juvéderm treatment, a personalized injection plan will be developed to match your goals.
Are Juvéderm injections painful?
While many patients don’t think it’s needed, a numbing cream can be massaged into the treatment site before injection if you’re concerned about discomfort. After the injection, you might have mild to moderate bruising and swelling that should reduce over the next week. Please contact Shumway Cosmetic Surgery if you have any severe discomfort or signs of an infection following your injection.
What is the difference between a wrinkle filler and relaxer?
Both fillers and relaxers smooth wrinkles but through different methods. Injectable relaxers, such as BOTOX, stop dynamic wrinkles from contracting (chronic muscle movements). Injectable wrinkle fillers, like Juvéderm, improve static wrinkles by adding volume. Juvéderm is great for improving mild to moderate lines and wrinkles or to reverse volume loss in your cheeks or lips.
How long do results typically last?
Your results from a Juvéderm injection may last up to two years. This can vary based on which formula is selected and the injection site(s). The length of your results will be faster or slower, depending on the speed at which your body metabolizes the formula.
