JUVÉDERM is an injectable gel that can be used for deep injection in the cheek area to correct age-related volume loss in adults over 21. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance that delivers nutrients to the skin, helping the skin retain moisture and softness and adding volume.
Getting fillers is a medical procedure that should only be done by a trained professional.
It is important that patients know they are getting the real version of the product and that the fillers are injected by a trained doctor.
Doctors like Dra. Kaycee Reyes, founder of Luminisce Skin Clinic, work closely and train with brands like Juvederm. Find a doctor who is up to date with the latest techniques and has exhibited experience as an injector. Do not hesitate to ask your questions.
Juvederm’s Liquid Facelift at Luminisce Skin Clinic
On top of reducing wrinkles and plumping the skin, Juvederm is now used to give patients a “liquid face lift”. Like the name implies, the minimally invasive procedure gives patients the result of a facelift without going under the knife.
It’s important to note that the results of a liquid face lift heavily depend on the injector’s technique. There’s a modern saying that beauty is in the hands of the injector.
At Luminisce, that injector is no less than Dra.Kaycee Reyes.
Get the results of chin augmentation without implants or surgery. Juvederm can add volume and projection to a receding chin, and achieve the V-shape look for patients.
Juvederm can add volume and lift sagging jowls to create a more youthful, contoured look for patients without the use of threads or the need for a surgical face lift.
Important Questions: Downtime, Price, and How Long Do Fillers Last?
Fillers should be done in your doctor’s office. At Luminisce, Dra. Kaycee Reyes work with registered nurses who assist during each procedure to ensure patient comfort and safety. It is also important to do filler lips, cheek, and nose augmentation, and face lifts in a sterile environment to avoid risks of infection. This is rare but it can happen if you are not careful.
The price of fillers depend on the brand like Juvederm. Doctors can identify how many “cc’s” you need which is usually how the procedure is priced. Be vigilant against fake products and quack injectors, doctors, who offer too good to be true prices. Practice due diligence in choosing your skin clinic and doctor.
In my experience, Juvederm lasts for up to 6 months. It can be combined with other treatments to prolong the results. Staying away from the sun, healthy eating, and proper skincare regimen also helps to enhance the longevity of your results. Different people metabolize fillers differently, so it’s better to ask your doctor as well.
Here is my non-medical looking photo with my son. This was after 1 month of treatment.
Another benefit of fillers is its hydrating effect to the skin. I like how my skin appears always hydrated after getting my face done. This was most noticeable in the first 3 months. Six months after the treatment, I believe I’ve metabolized most of the product since I exercise heavily. Unlike most people think, fillers are not permanent and this can be both a good and a bad thing (bad because we can’t keep great results forever). That said, my face still looks a lot better, less angry and less tired-looking even several months. Fillers stimulate collagen production so this could be the reason why many patients are still satisfied beyond the life of the product itself.
