Juvéderm FAQs: What It Does Cost?

Juvederm Dermal Filler 

Juvederm injectable is an FDA approved dermal filler gel for volumizing depleted facial areas. The formula can be used for attaining a rounder and younger looking face. The facial formula is helpful in increasing volume in wrinkled and loose facial locations.

You will be provided with detailed information from your treatment provider on the limitations and benefits of Juvederm. The treatment provider will also explain all estimated costs of the procedure so that you can make an educated decision.

Comparing Cost Factors

Juvederm is more cost-effective than various other dermal filler treatments. It doesn’t involve ultrasound and RF technology and can be performed in less than 30 minutes. Juvederm dermal filler consists of lidocaine that ensures you stay comfortable and painless. Lidocaine is a mild anesthetic and can be used instead of general and local anesthesia.

The dermal filler is administered as an in-office procedure. You don’t have to worry about undergoing specific allergy tests. The filler contains a biodegradable compound called hyaluronic acid. This is another cost saving factor of Juvederm. You don’t have to pay for prescription drugs and follow-up consultations.

Results are Long Lasting

Juvederm has a high concentration of hyaluronic acid which enables the results to last longer. Results of most HA-based dermal fillers don’t last longer than 3 – 6 months. Juvederm results can last for up to 12 months. This is another cost benefit.

Extent of Treatment

Your treatment provider will calculate the cost of Juvederm based on the amount of formula and the number of syringes used. The procedure may be charged on an hourly basis by a few treatment providers. The total monetary amount of the injectable procedure is determined on the basis of the extent of treatment.

Certain patients need minor corrections in their mid-face appearance while others may require full cheek volumizing. Certain treatment areas are more costly than others. This can cause costs to differ marginally between two patients getting the treatment at the same practice.

Cost-effectiveness and Longevity Increased with Cross-Linking

Preparing the formula has a significant impact on the outcome. Juvederm dermal filler is called highly effective because of tight cross-linking. This can be explained with the help of similarly sized yarn balls. Tightly-balled yarns unwind slower as opposed to a loosely wound one. This is the same way cross-linkage works in the case of Juvederm molecules. The formula stays within the cells for a longer period of time.
