Juvéderm temporary
What It Is
Juvéderm is a brand of hyaluronic acid filler designed to add volume and definition to the lips. The provider injects the gel beneath the skin to enhance lip fullness and shape. Results appear gradually over a few days as the filler settles.
Good Candidates
Juvéderm works well for people seeking fuller, more defined lips or those looking to restore volume lost with age. A qualified provider will assess your lip structure and goals to determine if this approach fits your needs.
What to Expect
The appointment typically takes 15 to 30 minutes. Your provider will apply a topical numbing agent and may use ice to minimize discomfort. Multiple small injections place the filler in strategic areas to achieve the desired shape and volume.
Recovery and Aftercare
Most people experience mild swelling and tenderness for a few days after treatment. Avoid strenuous exercise, extreme heat, and pressing on the lips during this time. Full settling usually occurs within two weeks.
Results and Longevity
Lips appear fuller and more defined immediately, though final results are clearer once swelling subsides. The results feel natural when placed by an experienced provider. Touch-ups may be needed to maintain the look as filler gradually reabsorbs.
