Juvederm® Ultra XC: for lips.

Juvederm® Ultra XC, offered by The Dermatology Institute of Boston, is a filler that adds more fullness and volume to plump thin lips – whether your lips have thinned over time or you simply want fuller lips. Dr. Graber performs Juvederm® Ultra XC for Boston patients looking for effective non-surgical lip enhancement.

Some people simply have naturally thin lips and just want to achieve a fuller appearance. Other people have noticed their lips thinning over time and may also have seen vertical lip lines (also known as smoker’s lines) become more noticeable. These lines result from the aging process, smoking, and prolonged sun exposure. Juvederm® Ultra XC can restore and enhance the lips.

How Does Juvederm® Ultra XC Lip Filler Work?

Juvederm® Ultra XC is a dermal lip filler primarily composed of hyaluronic acid (HA). Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in our bodies, so it is rare for it to react adversely when injected. Hyaluronic acid bonds with water molecules in order to create volume, lending skin its full and youthful appearance.

Is Juvederm® Ultra XC the Right Lip Filler for You?

Juvederm® Ultra XC offers several benefits:

It is quick – A Juvederm® Ultra XC lip augmentation treatment can be completed within 30 minutes.
It is easy – This lip filler contains a local anesthetic called lidocaine, which greatly reduces your sensitivity to pain by numbing the treatment area. At The Dermatology Institute of Boston, we also offer our patients a numbing cream that is applied to the lips just prior to the procedure.
It is safe – Juvederm® Ultra XC lip filler treatment is very safe and has been approved for use by the FDA. Individuals who have received this treatment have reported few to no side effects. Instances of allergic reactions are almost non-existent.
Recovery is short – Recovery from the Juvederm® Ultra XC treatment requires little downtime. In the days after treatment, only some patients have swelling and bruising, and this is very temporary.
You can enjoy immediate results – The Juvederm® Ultra XC lip filler injectable treatment creates immediate results once your treatment has been completed, so you won’t need to wait for months to see your results.

Your Lip Filler Treatment Session

A lip filler treatment session is very short and convenient. At the start, the areas of treatment are carefully discussed between the patient and the physician. We want you to have a natural result, and we want to plan your treatment so that you still look like yourself, just refreshed. Our approach is “less is more.” We believe that small improvements go a long way.

Results usually last between 6 months to 1 year on average. You can opt for a repeat treatment if you feel that your lips are beginning to thin out again, as they naturally will after the effects of the Juvederm® Ultra XC dermal lip filler wear off.
