Juvederm is a cosmetic injection that can be used to improve the appearance of your lips. It’s often used in patients who have lost fullness due to aging or have experienced some skin damage. The procedure involves injecting a fine substance into each lip and then relaxing it to remain in place permanently.
This article will explain how long it takes to see results after receiving Juvederm injections at Atlanta Plastic Surgery Specialists and any potential side effects that may occur during treatment.
How Soon Will I See the Results?
It depends on how you’re using Juvederm. If you’ve got a fresh injection and are trying to get the best results possible, the results of Juvederm will begin to show in as little as two weeks. If you’re looking for a more subtle result, it can take up to six weeks or even longer before you see any noticeable changes in your lips.
So what’s the best way for us to answer this question? The truth is that there’s no one correct answer—it’s different for everyone! We can’t say how long it’ll take until you see signs of improvement (or even if it will happen at all).
So if you want to ensure that your results are as good as possible, we recommend starting treatment with a fresh injection of Juvederm as soon as possible—and then keeping up with maintenance treatments every few months as needed.
Is Juvederm Safe?
Juvederm and other dermal fillers are safe. The FDA has approved them for use in the face, neck, lips, and chin. Juvederm is made from hyaluronic acid (HA), naturally found in your body. HA can also be found in your joints, muscles, hair follicles, and skin tissue—all of which help maintain healthy-looking skin!
Since it was first introduced to patients 30 years ago, Juvederm has been proven to be a safe treatment option for wrinkles around the eyes or mouth area created through aging or sun exposure over time.
Research shows that many people who receive injection treatments see improvements within 14 days of their treatment session; however, some may require more frequent visits depending on their individual needs during this time frame.”
What are Some Common Side Effects Associated with Juvederm?
Several side effects are associated with Juvederm, including swelling, redness, and bruising. Some patients may also experience pain or temporary numbness at the injection site.
The most common side effects of Juvederm injections include:
Swelling
This is usually minimal and rarely lasts more than 24 hours after your treatment session. Avoid activities that put pressure on your face for 48 hours following treatment to prevent further swelling.
Redness
The area around your mouth will be redder than expected because of blood vessels in this area dilating (making them look more prominent). This is normal and should disappear within 2-3 weeks after a treatment session on yourself.
Who Shouldn’t Use Juvederm?
If you have a known allergy to the ingredients in Juvederm, reconsider whether it’s right for you. Also, if your skin is sensitive and prone to redness or irritation, then this could be a problem with using Juvederm.
If you have keloids (abnormal growths on the skin), don’t use this product at all—it can cause them to grow larger than average! And if any open wounds on your face haven’t completely healed yet (like from acne), avoid using Juvederm until they’ve closed up completely.
Also, keep in mind that Juvederm has been known to cause infection at its treatment site; therefore, patients should not undergo treatments less than six months apart from each other since bacteria may still be present in their bodies after multiple treatments are administered within such time frame.”
Are There Ways to Make Juvederm Last Longer?
Juvederm can last up to 12 months, but there are a few ways to make it last longer.
Don’t touch the treated area for six weeks. If you have any questions about what to do during this time frame, please consult your doctor or dermatologist about proper care for your skin.
Avoid using anything on top of the treatment area that might cause additional inflammation or irritation (like makeup). For example:
- Avoid wearing sunscreen during treatment.
- Use only water-based products if possible.
- Wear gloves when applying moisturizer after surgery because they’re more absorbent than gauze towels and won’t stick as much to patients’ skin (which could lead them back into pain).
Can Juvederm Cause Any Adverse Side Effects?
No. Juvederm is a safe procedure that causes no long-term side effects. Some patients experience mild bruising, swelling, and redness after receiving their injections; these are temporary but can last up to four weeks.
The skin may look shiny or have a slight sheen after the procedure; this is normal and will disappear as your body heals itself from the injection. In rare instances, small bumps may appear on the face at first but disappear within a few days (these are called “microbial nodules”).
How can I learn more about Getting Juvederm Injections?
If you’re interested in learning more about getting Juvederm injections, make an appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon. You’ll want to find out what Juvederm is and how it works. You can also ask about the cost of Juvederm injections, as well as any risks or benefits that are associated with them.
Conclusion
After you have received your Juvederm injections, it can take up to six months for the results to be noticeable. This is primarily because the body has a natural healing process called “revision.” This means that even though you may see changes after just one treatment, it may take two or three years to become apparent.
