What ingredients is in juvederm?

Juvederm works by adding volume to facial tissue through its active ingredient, hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the human body. It stimulates the production of connective tissue that fills the skin (collagen). As you age, the production of hyaluronic acid and collagen decreases.

This increases the appearance of sagging and wrinkling of facial skin.

Juvederm

Ultra Plus XC is an FDA-approved dermal filler used to soften facial lines and restore youthful volume that may diminish over time. From the makers of Botox, Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is just one of many Juvederm fillers that can be used to refresh and revitalize your appearance. The two main ingredients found in Juvederm Ultra Plus XC are hyaluronic acid and lidocaine, an anesthetic agent.

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is naturally produced by the body. It is a type of sugar that can moisturize the skin, since it retains water and creates a kind of natural cushion that increases volume wherever it is injected. Lidocaine, the second ingredient, is a mild local anesthetic. This helps reduce any discomfort when injecting the gel into the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is the active ingredient in Juvederm, Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Voluma, Vollure, Volbella, Restylane, Restylane Lyft, Restylane Kysse, Belotero Balance and Teoxane RHA fillers.
