Patients in Chagrin Falls discover the types of Juvéderm lip filler

The aging process includes the slowing and breakdown in the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. The result is a loss of volume in the face and lips. The lips may become thin or flat. Conveniently located in Chagrin Falls, the team at Seriously Skin offers Juvéderm filler as an answer for thinning lips and volume loss. Seriously Skin offers advanced medical and cosmetic options to keep you looking fresh and rejuvenated.

FDA approved hyaluronic acid fillers

Manufactured by Allergan, Juvéderm is a collection of FDA approved hyaluronic acid fillers. The body naturally produces hyaluronic acid. It is one of the building blocks of the skin, bringing moisture, nutrients, and volume. As we age, the production of hyaluronic acid slows, making the skin lose moisture and fullness, resulting in a more hollowed or thin appearance. Lines and wrinkles also appear. Hyaluronic acid is used in dermal fillers to fill lines and wrinkles, to contour the face, and to add volume to the lips or hollows. The results are natural and long lasting.

Types of Juvéderm

Juvéderm is used to add volume and fill lines in the face. Depending on the type of Juvéderm used, the filler can treat the following areas:

• Cheeks – Juvéderm Voluma XC adds three-dimensional contour to the cheekbones and hollows of the face.
• Lines and wrinkles – Depending on the severity of the wrinkles or folds, Juvéderm XC or Juvéderm Vollure XC may be used to treat the moderate to severe parentheses around the nose and mouth for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
• Lips – Juvéderm Volbella XC plumps the lips and smooths vertical lines around the mouth.

Volbella adds fullness to the lips

Juvéderm Volbella is an FDA approved injectable treatment. The gel is used in lip augmentation treatments for adults ages 21 and over. Thin lips are not always a sign of aging. Some patients have naturally thin lips and desire subtle volume. Volbella plumps the lips and softens the visible vertical lines around the mouth. Volbella is formulated with a lower concentration of hyaluronic acid, which produces a lasting effect of subtle, yet naturally full lips.
