During your appointment, our clinician will assess the fold, apply topical numbing, inject Juvederm Ultra Plus XC precisely, and sculpt volume. Procedure lasts 20–45 minutes; you may feel mild pressure. We’ll provide aftercare and schedule follow-up as needed.

Most patients enjoy smoother contours for approximately 9–18 months, depending on metabolism, injection technique, and amount used. Maintenance treatments vary; your clinician will recommend timing based on observed longevity and desired appearance.

Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler. Our licensed providers follow safety protocols, candidacy screening, and aseptic technique. A consultation determines suitability; inform us about medical history, allergies, or prior filler treatments.

Avoid blood-thinning medications, supplements, and alcohol for 48–72 hours if safe for you. Arrive with clean skin, disclose medications and health conditions, and plan light activities after treatment. We’ll give specific pre-care instructions during booking.

Typical side effects include temporary swelling, redness, tenderness, bruising, and occasional lumps. These usually resolve within days to two weeks. Rare complications exist; contact us immediately for prolonged symptoms or signs of infection or vascular compromise.

Most clients resume normal daily activities the same day or next day, avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and facial massage for 24–48 hours. Follow aftercare instructions and contact us if unusual pain, swelling, or concerns arise.
