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.

What’s the Difference Between Juvéderm XC and Voluma XC?

Juvéderm Collection Frequently Asked Questions

What is Juvéderm XC approved for?

Juvéderm XC is a non-surgical injectable dermal filler that is FDA-approved for injection into the mid to deep dermis (just below the outer layer of your skin) for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. It’s ideal for nasolabial folds (the creases running from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth, also known as parentheses or smile lines).

Can people with different skin tones and types be treated with Juvéderm XC?

Absolutely! Juvéderm XC is ideal for just about any skin type or tone.

Are there any possible side effects caused by the Juvéderm XC treatment?

Most side effects are mild or moderate in nature, and very brief in duration, usually fading within the span of about seven or less. The most common side effects include, but are not limited to, temporary injection site reactions like redness, sensitivity, tenderness, firmness, swelling, lumps, bumps, bruising, itching, and discoloration. As with all skin injection procedures, there is a slight risk of infection. We’ll take every possible step to ensure that your experience is a safe, comfortable, and pleasant one.

How long does the treatment usually take?

The injection process can be performed during a brief office visit, which will be completed in less than a full hour. Touch-up injections and repeat injections are usually needed to maintain your optimal results, and we’ll work with you to set up a schedule that works for you.

Is the treatment painful?

While the injection process can cause some discomfort during and after the treatment session, Juvéderm XC is formulated with lidocaine to ensure that your treatment experience is a very pleasant one. Your practitioner may choose to numb the treatment area to further minimize your discomfort.
