JUVÉDERM®
Lift it, smooth it, plump it.
Juvéderm® is the brand name for a collection of injectable fillers made with hyaluronic acid (HA). Found naturally in the skin, hyaluronic acid has a unique capacity to attract and retain moisture—it can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water—which helps skin look plump and supple.
In synthetic forms injected beneath the skin, the gel-like substance instantly helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles, soften creases, enhance facial contours, and restore lost volume.
Benefits
