The Juvéderm® family of injectable fillers is a series of FDA-approved treatments that give you the power to address a variety of cosmetic concerns by lifting your cheeks, smoothing over fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, and leaving your lips with a fuller, more youthful appearance.
What Is Hyaluronic Acid?
Juvéderm XC is made with a modified form of something known as hyaluronic acid (also known as “HA” for short), manufactured using proprietary Hylacross™ technology. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in your skin, and it helps your skin retain moisture so it can look healthy and youthful for as long as possible. As you age, your body starts to produce less and less HA, eventually causing your skin to lose its sense of structure and volume, contributing to the formation of wrinkles and folds.
