Pre-Treatment Consultation
The journey to a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this initial meeting, one of our skilled practitioners will take the time to understand your unique needs and expectations. They will assess your facial structure, skin type, and discuss your medical history to ensure JUVÉDERM® is the right choice for you.
This is also the perfect opportunity to ask any questions you may have. Whether you're curious about the specifics of the procedure, potential side effects, or aftercare, our team is here to provide clear, honest answers. By the end of the consultation, you will have a customized treatment plan tailored to your aesthetic goals and a thorough understanding of what to expect.
The Treatment Process
On the day of your treatment, you will be welcomed into a comfortable and serene environment designed to put you at ease. The actual procedure is relatively quick, typically lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.
Post-Treatment Care and Results
After the treatment, you might notice some redness, swelling, or minor bruising around the injection sites. These side effects are typically mild and subside within a few days. Your practitioner will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and minimize any discomfort.
It's important to avoid strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Applying a cold compress can help reduce swelling and alleviate any discomfort.

The longevity of JUVÉDERM® results can vary based on the specific product used and the area treated, but many patients enjoy the benefits for six months to a year. Regular follow-up appointments can help maintain your refreshed appearance and address any concerns.
