Juvederm, which is made in France, offers a natural looking, longer lasting rejuvenation effect than Restylane. Dr. Rodriguez was one of the first cosmetic surgeons to use this filler and has over six years of experience with the product. Juvederm sales have been bolstered by the fact that the product lasts between 8 to 10 months before requiring a fresh injection, as opposed to four to six months for most filler products. The manufacturers of Juvederm have made it as long lasting as possible by concentrating the product and using a process that generates a dense network of bridge type bonds between different molecules of hyaluronic acid, thus creating larger molecule clusters of the acid gel. The resultant larger molecules are more resistant to breakdown, which accounts for the longer lasting effect of Juvederm. The Juvederm product is manufactured using a bactericidal fermentation process and does not contain any animal product. Therefore, no skin testing is required.
Juvederm dermal filler consists of three different sizes of hyaluronic acid gel, each used to treat different problem areas:
Used to treat fine, superficial lines particularly around the mouth area (smokers lines) and lines around the eyes.
When injected into the middle dermis, Juvederm 24 effectively fills forehead wrinkles, obvious mild to moderate nasal furrows and highlights lip contours.
When injected into the middle or deep dermis, the densest version, Juvederm 30 fills deep wrinkles and lines, sculpts cheeks and chin, and provides better definition for the facial outline.
The outcome of the Juvederm treatment can be optimized further with a follow up procedure a few weeks after the initial procedure. Although it is not yet the most common brand of cosmetic or dermal filler used with practitioners, it is growing in popularity due to its long lasting effects.
