What is Juvederm?
All Juvederm Fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, or HA, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body that gives our skin fullness and volume. Modified HA is the main ingredient in Juvederm products and is cross-linked and manufactured using two proprietary technologies, Hylacross and Vycross. Juvederm Ultra and Juvederm Ultra Plus products are made with Hylacross technology and have the same molecular weight, creating a thin to medium gel.
Vycross technology is used in Voluma, Vollure, and Volbella products - they all start with the letter V - wink! Vycross technology cross-links different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to create a thicker, firmer gel. Juvederm Hylacross and Vycross products have unique, subtle differences making them each ideal products to address specific aesthetic concerns. Your injector can let you know which product from the Juvederm Collection is right for you.

Once you have your consultation and determine which Juvederm filler products will be best for your goals, your injector will take photos and apply a topical numbing cream. The product used and the placement on the face will determine the needle and technique used. You can feel a slight pinch when the product is first injected and then some light pressure as the gel is applied under the skin. Juvederm products hurt less because they are mixed with lidocaine, a local anesthetic that works on contact, to keep patients comfortable during treatment.
