JUVEDERM & BELOTERO

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler approved by DHA & FDA. It is used to fill in the hollow areas of the face, wrinkles and folds, increasing the volume in those particular areas. Botox is an injectable neurotoxin, again approved by DHA & FDA, that relaxes and paralyzes the muscle, restricting muscle contractions. As a result, the appearance and the development of fine lines and wrinkles is reduced or eliminated. The two mentioned procedures have very different purposes and applications, however they can be paired, nicely complementing each other for better results.

Контурная пластика Belotero выполняется следующим образом.

1. Специалист удаляет с поверхности кожи возможные загрязнения, в том числе декоративную косметику

Перед тем, как отпустить пациента обязательно проговариваются все рекомендации по домашнему уходу. 

JUVEDERM Ultra: JUVEDERM Ultra helps restore facial volume lost in the middle and lower part of the face. JUVEDERM Ultra CS is mainly used to address nasolabial folds (or smile lines), marionette lines, and lips.

JUVEDERM Ultra Plus: JUVEDERM Ultra Plus XC is used to tackle moderate to severe facial folds, like nasolabial folds (or smile lines) and marionette lines. It contains lidocaine which makes the whole injection procedure more tolerable and can be selected as a lip enhancement filler.

JUVEDERM Voluma: As the name suggests, JUVEDERM Voluma is used to give extra volume. It is mainly designed for facial contouring and is usually injected in the cheek, chin, and jowl area, as well as other hollow facial regions to replace lost volume giving the face a touch of youthfulness. Apart from its main application, JUVEDERM Voluma can also be used to tackle acne scars filling the lost volume and collagen in atrophic acne scars.

JUVEDERM Vollure: JUVEDERM Vollure is popular for the long-term effect it provides. The results with JUVEDERM Vollure may last up to 18 months when the majority of other fillers give a maximum one year effect. JUVEDERM Vollure is mostly injected into the nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines.

JUVEDERM Volbella: JUVEDERM Volbella is designed for subtle enhancements in more delicate areas, like fine lines and wrinkles, under eyes (also called tear troughs), and the lips. The primary purpose of JUVEDERM Volbella is under eye rejuvenation. However, it can also be used to address acne scars, restoring the lost volume and collagen in atrophic acne scars.

JUVEDERM Volite: JUVEDERM Volite is used to improve the overall skin quality by increasing elasticity and hydration and reducing fine lines.

As years go by we lose collagen and fatty tissue in our skin and faces resulting in facial volume loss. The hollowness caused by volume loss makes us look older and especially affects the midface, under the eyes, and cheeks. Volume loss can bring forth sagginess which is another obvious sign of aging. The primary purpose of JUVEDERM Voluma is to fill in the hollow area and add volume to the face, making it look fuller and younger.

Both JUVEDERM Voluma and JUVEDERM Ultra are designed to address the hollow areas and deep folds in the face by filling them in. JUVEDERM Ultra is perfect for nasolabial folds, while it can also be used for lip enhancement. Doctor in CIDK selects the most appropriate JUVEDERM filler based on the particular case to meet the patient’s individual goals and to best fit their facial features.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can be paired with a number of different treatments and fillers. For certain treatment areas, it can actually be combined with Botox aimed at elimination or reduction of fine lines and wrinkles by means of facial muscle relaxation. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can also be combined with such medical grade skin tightening treatments as  RF microneedling or  lasers. The only precondition for combining JUVEDERM & BELOTERO with other treatments, like Botox injections or skin tightening procedures, is injecting them after other procedures to prevent product migration.

It is possible to treat acne scars with JUVEDERM & BELOTERO. Massive acne scarring causes volume loss and creates small indents. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can be used as a replacement for this lost tissue, restoring the volume in the treatment area. Conditioned by the severity of the scarring, Doctor in CIDK can choose to start the treatment with a  RF microneedling procedure and complement it with a  laser treatment in order to smooth out and refine the skin via fractional thermal ablation. Should there still be deep acne scars after these treatments, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO may be used to correct remaining indentations.

First of all you will need to schedule a personalized consultation with Doctor in CIDK, which is a great opportunity to raise all your questions and concerns related to the treatment, as well as discuss the treatment areas and procedural options with a board-certified doctor. Doctor in CIDK will guide you through the optimal treatment plan for you, based on your unique case, medical history, skin type, goals, and concerns. You will get your JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections either immediately after the consultation or will schedule for a different day and time that works for both you and Doctor in CIDK.

Before the treatment Doctor in CIDK recommends you take two Tylenols to decrease the level of discomfort during the procedure. You will also be instructed to avoid blood thinners that can cause excess bleeding and bruising. 15 – 20 minutes prior to your injections

Doctor in CIDK may apply a topical lidocaine based numbing cream on the treatment area that will be sanitized in advance. This is another measure taken to reduce any possible discomfort. The area will again be sanitized after the removal of the numbing cream in order to avoid any possible infection.

Depending on the number of syringes, the procedure will likely take up to 30 minutes. The injections themselves are relatively quick and painless. After the injections, Doctor in CIDK will give you an ice pack to apply on the treatment area for the rest of the day. Make sure you do not rub or touch the skin for 3 – 5 days, stay away from heat, extreme sun exposure, and exercise as preventive measures to avoid excessive swelling. In the event of bruising, you will be advised to apply a warm compress and arnica gel until the bruising subsides.

The treatment process does not take long and is relatively painless. There are JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers that contain lidocaine which makes the injections more tolerable. In some cases this will be supplemented by a topical numbing cream that Doctor in CIDK will apply to the treatment area 15 – 20 minutes prior to the procedure to reduce and prevent the possible discomfort. The treatment will be carried out by a technique that Doctor in CIDK will choose based on your specific case. The injection process will take 20 – 30 minutes with immediate results. Bruising and swelling are among the possible side effects that may not allow you to see the results right away. In case of bruising and swelling you will be advised to apply an ice pack for the rest of the first day, and a warm compress on the following days until the bruising subsides.

The majority of patients do not experience a lot of pain during JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections. Conditioned by your pain tolerance the procedure may cause some discomfort and pain. However, there are JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers containing lidocaine that will reduce the possibility of discomfort. Depending on the treatment area, a topical numbing cream may also help to additionally reduce discomfort. Another measure to make the overall process even more tolerable for you is taking two Tylenols prior to the treatment.

The effect of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections can be seen immediately after the procedure if there is no bruising and swelling. In case of bruising and swelling, the results will be obscurely visible. Wait for up to two weeks and you will be able to fully enjoy the final outcome of the procedure. To speed up the healing process you can apply an ice pack to the treated area on the day of the procedure and a warm compress on the following days until the side effects subside. If your JUVEDERM & BELOTERO results are planned for a special event, Doctor in CIDK advises undergoing the treatment 2 – 4 weeks before the event to be on the safe side should there be any unforeseen bruising or swelling.

The effect of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections can be visible right after the procedure as the filler spreads and fills in the hollowness in the face. There can be cases in which some bruising and swelling occur, making it harder to observe the final results. In order to help your body heal quicker you can apply an ice pack on the treatment area on day one of the treatment and a warm compress and arnica gel on the next days for the bruising.

The answer to this question mainly depends on the type of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO filler used, the amount of the filler, and the patient’s response to the filler. While some patients hold on to results for longer, others may metabolize the filler quicker, leaving them with results that do not last as long. The average longevity of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers is 9 – 12 months.

In 2006 JUVEDERM & BELOTERO was DHA & FDA approved as a safe and effective material to treat tissue volume loss, as well as deep facial wrinkles and folds. As with any other procedure, there is a risk of possible side effects, which are rare and mostly treatable. The number one way to bypass those risks and side effects is by being treated by a board certified cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist who has extensive experience and expertise to administer JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections in a safe and effective manner.

In general, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections require little to no recovery time. To be on the safe side and reduce possible bruising and swelling you should avoid exercising and heat for 2 to 3 days. It also helps to apply an ice pack to the treated area on the day of the treatment and a warm compress on the following days.

Bruising, discoloration, tyndall effect, irritation, lumps or bumps, pruritus, and tenderness are all possible side effects of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections. However, all of them can be reduced and eliminated with proper treatment. One thing that can notably mitigate the risk of the mentioned side effects is having your treatment administered by a board certified and well-experienced physician or plastic surgeon such as Doctor in CIDK.

The number one step to avoid bruising is to stop using any blood thinners such as Aspirin and Motrin, as well as any other supplements that may cause bruising two weeks prior to your procedure. Alcohol and cigarettes can also increase bruising if used within two weeks before the treatment. In the event of actual bruising, a warm compress and arnica gel will facilitate the healing process.

You can go back to your workouts 48 hours after your JUVEDERM & BELOTERO treatment. Any time before then may increase the swelling and bruising in the treated area and cause filler displacement.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is designed to replace lost facial volume, enhance existing features or fill in fine lines, wrinkles, and creases in certain parts of the face. Lips, fine lines and wrinkles, also known as smokers lines or vertical lip lines, corners of the mouth, marionette lines (the lines from the corners of the mouth down to the chin), nasolabial area, tear trough (under eyes), chin, temples, hands, cheeks, jawline, neck, as well as acne and surgical scars can be filled in using JUVEDERM & BELOTERO.

Aging is accompanied by significant reduction in the natural hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastin in our bodies. These three are responsible for the youthfulness of our skin. When our bodies start to lose collagen and hyaluronic acid, it becomes noticeable on the face as it loses volume, especially under the eyes and cheeks. Hyaluronic acid fillers are meant to replace the lost volume and to fill in the wrinkles, lines, and folds that come with age. This process is also known as a liquid face lift because it rejuvenates and brings youthfulness back to the skin without invasive means such as surgery.

Within the last ten years lip augmentation has become a highly popular procedure not only by celebrities and social media influencers but also the general public. There are different lip enhancement techniques, each of which is designed to achieve a certain result. Some patients want radical changes, such as the Kylie Jenner style, others give preference to adding just a little bit of volume for a more subtle result.

When it comes to lip augmentations, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is one of the most popular fillers as it is based on hyaluronic acid and is versatile. It adds volume and creates fuller lips. However, apart from lips, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can also be injected around the lip area to address fine lines and wrinkles, sometimes called smoker’s lines and perioral lines as they are mainly caused by smoking, aging, and sun damage. 

With aging even full lips become smaller as a result of collagen and moisture loss. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers help restore this lost volume and give the lips their former youthfulness and hydration, or even more.

In order to decide the number of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO syringes for a lip enhancement, you will need to take into consideration your desired end result, as well as the type of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO filler. The average number of syringes for most patients ranges from 1 to 2. One syringe is standard.

JUVEDERM Ultra Plus is a filler that belongs to the JUVEDERM family and adds more volume and definition when compared to other fillers. Nonetheless, more than two syringes may be necessary for a fuller look.

Aging causes collagen, elastin, and fat loss in our faces. As a result, we lose fat and tissue volume in our cheeks and other areas of the face that bring on deflation, flatter facial features, and give away older age, especially if there is also volume loss under the eyes. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is an DHA & FDA approved filler that treats hollowness in the cheeks by restoring the lost collagen and volume in the treatment area. The effect of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO lasts up to 12 months, making it a great product to add volume to the hollow parts of the face.

Lack of jawline definition caused by genetics, bone structure, fat, or loose skin is a problem faced by many. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is perfect at tackling this issue, lifting the jowls and adding some volume for a lifted and tightened effect, resulting in a well defined jawline. When injected in the jawline area, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO will create a more chiseled and defined look from a side profile perspective. Doctor in CIDK commonly combines this treatment with Botox injections or other neurotoxins such as Dysport in the masseters to slim down the jaw area. He also uses Botox in the neck bands to address and prevent the formation of wrinkles and lines around the neck.

If there is a significant amount of fat present around the chin and jawline, Doctor in CIDK recommends CoolSculpting treatment before JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections in the jaw, for better and more visible results.  Another procedure that helps shape the jawline is PDO thread lift, which is a non surgical face lift designed to lift loose and sagging skin and tighten the treatment area.

Dermal fillers are popular for lip enhancements, under eye, and cheek injections. However, there is another area that can largely benefit from a filler treatment and that is often neglected: the chin. It goes hand in hand with the jaw and can also be injected with JUVEDERM & BELOTERO. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO will give the chin more prominence and a more projected profile view as well as evening out any present asymmetry in the face. The majority of people tend to choose this minimally invasive option over surgical implants. The latter is an incredibly invasive method involving additional risks and side effects as well as long recovery time. Doctor in CIDK sometimes chooses to perform CoolSculpting treatments before chin fillers, to eliminate the fat around the chin and jawline and to achieve a more defined and prominent shape of the chin.

Loss of volume under the eyes is very often accompanied by loss of volume in the cheeks. As we age we lose collagen and adipose tissue resulting in an older appearance. The under eye JUVEDERM & BELOTERO filler helps replace the lost volume, and rejuvenates and refreshes the skin and the overall face. Sometimes the under eye hollows create an impression of dark circles or discoloration under the eyes when in reality all of that is just a shadow cast by loss of volume in the tear trough. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is a great option to treat the tear trough, addressing the hollowness and refreshing one’s overall appearance.

Nasolabial folds, also called smile lines, are another area on the face that are often overlooked. These folds go down from the nose corner to the corners of the mouth and make you look older. More often than not this is the one of the first areas that shows volume loss in the face. JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers are a popular choice to fill in these lines, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO being one of the most common ones for that particular area. The effects of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO last up to 18 months. This is a good way to look younger by eliminating or at least reducing the appearance of smile lines.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can be well combined with other cosmetic procedures like other hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane, Radiesse, Sculptra, and Teosyal, neurotoxins, such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and skin tightening treatments, such as laser and RF Microneedling as well as skin lifting procedures, such as PDO thread lift.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is often paired with Botox and other neurotoxins such as Dysport for prevention and elimination of fine lines and wrinkles in the treatment area and relaxation of other muscles around the jaw and neck.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO can be enhanced by other fillers, too. It is quite common to inject Restylane Silk filler under the eyes, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO in the cheeks, JUVEDERM & BELOTERO in the smile lines and Radiesse for jawline definition.

Sometimes the issue of sagging skin is still present even after a liquid facelift with JUVEDERM & BELOTERO and other fillers. In such cases a PDO thread lift would be the next logical step to help lift loose skin around the jowls and jawline.

In certain cases the step preceding JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections for chin definition and augmentation is getting rid of excess fat in the area. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive cryolipolysis treatment. It may be used to reduce the stubborn fat around the chin area.

If you plan on getting a skin tightening and acne scar removal treatment, you may get the treatment before you get your fillers to avoid migration of the filler. Some of the most popular treatments include non-ablative fractional laser treatments such as Laser, or  RF microneedling, which is a fractional microneedling treatment utilizing radiofrequency energy to coagulate the dermal-subdermal layers to stimulate collagen production.

Combination treatments can often be the best form of skin care depending on your skin type and the original state of it. Every treatment serves a certain purpose and can be carried out alone or combined with other treatments. It is a common practice for Doctor in CIDK to combine different procedures for the most optimal results, such as microneedling and laser treatments for skin tightening, Botox for reduction and prevention of fine lines and wrinkles by means of muscle relaxation, and dermal fillers for volume restoration through replacement of lost collagen and hyaluronic acid.

Both JUVEDERM & BELOTERO are hyaluronic acid based fillers that serve the same purposes. Each of them have their own varieties that can be combined in different areas of the face to complement each other. Sometimes one is a better choice than the other depending on the patient’s desired results and facial features. The efficacy of their combination differs from case to case.

In general, smoking affects the skin in a negative way as it reduces the amount of collagen in it and can also affect the longevity of hyaluronic acid. Smoking also has a tendency of thinning out the skin and postponing the healing process after the injections.

Everyone who is generally in good health is a good candidate for JUVEDERM & BELOTERO dermal fillers. If you seek ways to eliminate deep lines or hollowness in your face then JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is most likely to be an effective solution for you. It can be a good option, too, even when all that you’re looking for is a little bit of volume in your lips or evened out chin or jawline.

However, before undergoing the actual treatment be sure to discuss your allergies or skin conditions with your injectors, if there are any. When pregnant or breastfeeding avoid fillers.

It is legal to get JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers from the age of 18. However, based on the type of filler you want, you may or may not be allowed to undergo the procedure. Be aware that some doctors prefer not to perform an injection treatment on individuals under the age of 21.

All hyaluronic acid based fillers are dissolvable with a hyaluronidase injection and JUVEDERM & BELOTERO is not an exception. Hyaluronidase injections momentarily dissolve all the JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers. Dissolving may take one session or more depending on the amount of the injected filler. This is why it is advised to start with little filler and add to that amount gradually if necessary, rather than having 2 or 3 syringes injected at once.

The easiest way to get rid of a JUVEDERM & BELOTERO filler is getting a hyaluronidase injection. However, you could also try massaging the treated area after the injection and exposing yourself to the sun which will thin your skin and possibly make the filler fade quicker. The best way to dissolve the filler is through a hyaluronidase injection.

The price of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO injections is mainly affected by the number of syringes you get, the type of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO filler, the treatment area, the geographical location of the clinic and the expertise of the injector. A board certified doctor is likely to set a higher price than a nurse or aesthetician at a medical spa.

JUVEDERM & BELOTERO works great for a wide range of injections and treatment areas. There is a wide variety of JUVEDERM & BELOTERO fillers specifically developed for different procedures and treatment areas, such as the nasolabial folds, under eye treatment, and lip enhancements.
