Juvéderm® is a hyaluronic acid gel-based filler. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of your skin, making up 40 percent of the deepest layer of your skin (the dermis). As we age, we naturally lose some of our hyaluronic acid. When injected under the skin, this popular dermal filler replenishes volume and smooths wrinkles. Juvéderm® injections take about 30 minutes to administer, and provide outstanding results for up to one year.
