3 Most Popular Anti-Aging Cosmetic Injectables

Every patient has different concerns they want to address. Yet with the plethora of non-invasive, anti-aging treatments available, it can be difficult to decide what best fits your particular needs.

Here are three of the most popular cosmetic injectables available at Kelowna skin clinics:

 

Juvederm

A family of injectable dermal fillers, Juvederm is the top recommended facial filler in Canada. Composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring sugar in the body, Juvederm combines with the water in your skin to naturally restore lost volume and eliminate unwanted facial lines.

Juvederm is used for:

  • Restoring fullness in facial features including cheeks and eyes

  • Short treatment time
  • No recovery period
  • No need for allergy testing as hyaluronic acid is safe and natural
  • Contains a numbing agent for a comfortable, pain-free treatment
  • Juvederm gel is much smoother as compared to other fillers, giving better, more natural results.
Are You A Candidate For Juvederm?

While Juvederm is a FDA-approved tissue filler, suitable for most skin types, it’s important to book a consultation at a skin clinic first to determine if it’s a safe procedure for you.

Juvederm is NOT SUITABLE for patients:

  • With known allergies to other dermal fillers
