Botox is used to smooth out frown lines, crow's feet and other unwanted wrinkles, such as lip lines and nose and eyebrow furrows. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. With Juvéderm® you don’t have to just sit back and let it happen! It gives you a subtle lift, helping to restore contour and a more youthful profile, for up to 2 years, in patients over the age of 21. It’s different than Juvéderm® and works on a different area of the face. Juvéderm® smoothes out moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth, like parentheses. Juvéderm® Voluma, however, adds volume to the cheek area.
Cosmetics
Fifty to Sixty percent of patients treated in our office are not ready for surgical procedures. Botox® and dermal fillers such as Juvéderm® and Juvéderm® Voluma can be used to create volume and structure in the face giving a more youthful appearance.
