Mid - Level Fillers
These fillers effectively correct the nasolabial folds. When sculpted carefully and meticulously, they can lift the corners of the mouth and correct marionette lines as well.
Juvéderm® Ultra XC
Juvéderm® Ultra XC injectable gel is a colorless hyaluronic acid gel that contains a small quantity of local anesthetic (lidocaine) and is injected into facial tissue to smooth wrinkles and folds, especially around the nose and mouth. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar found in the human body. The role of hyaluronic acid in the skin is to deliver nutrients, hydrate the skin by holding in water, and to act as a cushioning agent. The role of lidocaine is to reduce the pain associated with injections into the skin.
Most patients need 1 treatment to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing, and the results last about 9 months to 1 year. |
