Are aethetic injectable products such as JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers safe?

JUVEDERM'" dermal fillers are approved by the US. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), meaning that clinical data on their safety and effectiveness were reviewed by the FDA prior to approval.

Will the results look natural?

Treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVÉDERM™ dermal fillers can enhance the way you look. Physicians often will use multiple products, depending on the patients’ needs. BOTOX® Cosmetic is often used to relax the dominant frown muscles between the eyebrows, allowing the two vertical lines between the brows, often referred to as the “11,” to temporarily diminish in appearance. JUVÉDERM™ dermal fillers work differently, by instantly filling in and smoothing out wrinkles and folds that look like the parentheses along the side of your nose and mouth, creating a smooth, natural look and feel. In fact, the NWHRC survey* found that for those women who used or would consider using aesthetic injectable treatments, more than half (52%) reported that the treatments were appealing to them to obtain a “natural and refreshed” look.

How long do aesthetic injectable treatments last?

Treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers are temporary. BOTOX® Cosmetic effects can last up to four months, while JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers deliver sustained results for up to six months or longer.

Are injectable treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVEDERM™ painful?

Injections may cause some discomfort during and after injection. Talk with your physician about pain-reducing options, such as a numbing cream, which can be applied prior to your injection.

Is there scarring?

No reports of scarring were documented in clinical studies evaluating treatment with BOTOX@ Cosmetic and JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers. Additionally, studies with JUVEDERM™ demonstrated no increased risk of hyperpigmentation in patients of color.

How long do aesthetic injectable procedures take?

Many procedures can be performed quickly and require minimal down-time. Following a facial analysis by your physician, as well as procedures such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers require only a brief in-office visit and take an average of 15 minutes to perform.

Do aesthetic injectable procedures cause bruising or other side effects?

Following treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic, some patients have reported minimal bruising around the injection site area, while the most common side effects following injection are temporary eyelid droop and nausea. In clinical trials for JUVEDERM™ dermal fillers, most side effects were mild to moderate in nature, and lasted 7 days or less. The most common side effects include, but are not limited to, temporary injection site reactions such as redness, pain/tenderness, firmness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, itching, and discoloration.

For information on other possible treatment related side effects, speak with your doctor.

Will I still be able to make facial expressions?

Although the results are visible, a treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic            (onabotulinumtoxinA) will not radically change your facial appearance or make you look as if you’ve “had work done.” The muscle activity that causes frown lines between the brows is temporarily reduced, so you can still frown or look surprised without the wrinkles and creases between your brows.
