Juvéderm®
Juvéderm® is the most recent cosmetic injectable to gain FDA approval, and has become extremely popular with American consumers due to its combination of immediate and lasting results and no downtime. While it’s relatively new to the U.S., Juvéderm® has been used in Europe since 2005 and is currently used in 72 countries worldwide.read more
Is Juvéderm® Right For You?
This widely used injectable gel consists of HA (hyaluronic acid), which naturally occurs in the body and works with collagen and elastin to give volume to sagging skin. Patients will immediately notice gently smoothed wrinkles and a more youthful volume and appearance to the face. It’s also particularly effective on nasolabial folds, or the smile lines that run from the bottom of the nose to the sides of the mouth.
Juvéderm® Ultra, which is used to fill medium deep facial wrinkles and to add fullness to the lips
Juvéderm®XC, which is helpful for improving the appearance of much deeper facial folds due to its denser formulation
Juvéderm® Voluma XC, which is injected deep in the cheek to correct age-related volume loss in adults 21+

Who is a Juvéderm Candidate?
Any man or woman who has experienced age-related sagging in the face and is seeking a non-surgical option would be a candidate for Juvéderm®. The injections will reduce fine lines and wrinkles on the face as well as increase facial volume in the areas under the eyes and cheeks. The result is a more youthful appearance and, ideally, an increase in confidence to accompany this healthy glow.
Benefits of Juvéderm
Juvéderm® injections offer a non-surgical way to reduce the signs of aging with minimal downtime and results that last about 6-9 months (and can last up to a year). Individual results may vary. Juvéderm® is often used to:
- Plump up folds and reduce wrinkles that run from the bottom of the nose to the corners of the mouth
- Reduce or reduce the so-called parentheses, or the downturned creases at the corner of the mouth
- Augment thin or aging lips
- Fill in the prominent vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows
- Augment the hollows under the eyes
- Correct scars

Juvéderm® Volbella™ XC
Since its arrival, Juvéderm® Volbella® XC has made waves as a definitive treatment for signs of aging and volume loss in the lips and around the mouth. Although the lips and the area around the mouth often develop the most prominent signs of aging, they’re often ignored by many cosmetic treatments. With the introduction of Volbella, Aristocrat is proud to provide one of the most state-of-the-art and unique dermal fillers developed for its patients. With Volbella, Aristocrat’s patients finally have the chance to accentuate their lips and soften lines around the mouth known as “smoker’s lines” and “marionette lines.”
Volbella’s hyaluronic acid solution is formulated using VYCROSS technology, creating results that are smoother, softer, long-lasting, and natural-looking. The solution contains hyaluronic acids in a cross-linked formation which prevents the absorption of water, so patients have the added benefit of returning to daily activities immediately without having to worry about excessive swelling. The smooth gel solution also contains lidocaine to reduce pain and make the procedure as comfortable as possible.
The technology behind Volbella’s solution allows it to be one of the most long-lasting dermal fillers in the market, with patients seeing results for up to 12 months after their treatment. Volbella’s many benefits include:
Improved contour of the lips
Plumps and enhances the lips
Corrects asymmetry of the lips
Smooths out “smoker’s lines”
Fills marionette lines
Results last for up to 12 months
Natural, soft results
Comfortable procedure
Patients can expect little to no swelling after Volbella. Some patients experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising that can be resolved either the same day or the day after treatment. There is no downtime required for Volbella.

The Juvéderm Treatment
Juvéderm® injections are placed into the treatment area with an extremely fine needle. Any pain is usually minimal, and a topical anesthetic is often used to numb the skin area and ensure the patient’s comfort. There may be minor bruising at the injection site but, should this occur, it will resolve on its own over the next couple of days.
Aristocrat Plastic Surgery patients can also rest easy knowing their Juvéderm® treatment is being performed by Dr. Tehrani, who has been given the distinction of ExpertInjector™. Fewer than 3% of doctors fall under this category. This qualifying organization is the only one to have the endorsement of the prestigious American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery.
Pre-treatment allergy testing is not needed, as Juvéderm® does not contain any allergy-causing animal-derived ingredients.

Juvéderm Recovery
You can usually return to work and normal activities on the same day you’ve gotten the Juvéderm® treatment. There might be some swelling, redness, bruising, or itching at the injection site, but these typically resolve on their own within 1-3 days.
