When it comes to skin rejuvenation, injectable treatments are a good alternative to surgical procedures, through the removal of wrinkles, fine lines, and discolorations. These treatments leave you looking and feeling younger and smoother.

Your healthcare professional eases Juvederm™ injectable gel under the skin to provide a smooth, natural look and feel – so everyone will notice (but no one will know)! In fact, studies show superior results of Juvederm™ compared to a collagen-based dermal filler.* And, almost 90% of all study volunteers who were treated with both Juvederm™ injectable gel and another dermal filler* preferred Juvederm™! In addition, Juvederm™ injectable gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective for persons of color.
Injections of Juvederm™ fill the natural folds to restore a full and smoother appearance.
