When you look in the mirror on a daily basis, it might be difficult to notice the small changes that are taking place. Some of the changes that you might notice are wrinkles around your mouth and around your nose. If this is true, you may be a good candidate for Juvederm XC®. This product is designed to combat the folds and marionette lines that happen around your mouth.

Juvederm XC® is like many of the other products produced by Juvederm®. It is a dermal filler that uses hyaluronic acid as its base. One of the nice things about dermal filler technology is that it is constantly growing and is constantly evolving.

Manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to make these products better to help new patients. This is what led to the development of Juvederm XC®. The product uses a technology that offers the perfect mixture of low molecular weight with high molecular weight to create a substance that produces amazing results.

In addition to filling out the unwanted lines in your face, Juvederm XC® is a substance that encourages your body to hold onto moisture without giving the treated area a swollen or bloated appearance. If the mixture in the Juvederm XC® solution was not perfectly balanced, your skin would get too much water and the effects would be negative.

The treatment itself is very simple and usually only takes minutes to complete. During the treatment session, the Juvederm XC® solution is skillfully injected into the areas that need treatment. You should be happy to know that Juvederm XC® contains lidocaine, which will help you feel as comfortable as possible during the treatment. Once the treatment is done, you’re able to go back to virtually all of your everyday activities, making the treatment very convenient.

Juvederm XC® is a powerful tool that can help you look and feel your best. Talk to our cosmetic professional at Urban Allure in San Francisco to learn more about what makes this such a unique tool that can help you defy aging. This is also your opportunity to find out if you are a good candidate for the treatment and ask whatever questions you may have. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and get started!

It isn’t always necessary to undergo an invasive surgical procedure to eliminate or minimize the appearance of wrinkles across the visage. Certain types of wrinkles can be effectively addressed via strategic injections of the BOTOX® solution. BOTOX® is an FDA-approved purified protein solution that’s capable of smoothing fine lines around the mouth, across the brow and around the eyes. These treatments are short, safe and hassle-free. There’s no incisions or recovery time.

Why Choose BOTOX®?

With an invasive facelift procedure, patients have to mentally prepare themselves for a long-term recovery. This means dealing with downtime and limiting or even missing out on certain activities. With BOTOX®, you can deal with certain types of wrinkles without resulting to surgery and without dealing with days, weeks or months of downtime.

A Simple Procedure

There are multiple reasons why BOTOX® is so popular. The injections usually take just minutes to perform. There’s no special preparation for these procedures, and there’s no special aftercare. In fact, as soon as the injections are complete, most people immediately return to work or their regular activities. This is an extremely convenient treatment for people with busy schedules and lifestyles.

How Does BOTOX® Work?

The first wrinkles to appear on the visage are often dynamic wrinkles. These are the wrinkles that are easiest to see whenever facial movements are being made. Whether frowning, smiling, laughing or making any other facial expressions, the underlying expressive muscles must engage. These muscles can begin retaining tension over time that will ultimately manifest at the surface of the skin as noticeable fine lines and wrinkles.

When BOTOX® is skillfully injected into the affected areas, nerve signals to the expressive muscles are affected, tension is released and the surface skin is effectively smoothed out. The client can still make normal facial expressions. The only difference is that the skin in the treated area remains smooth.
