Those parentheses lines around your mouth and nose seemed to sneak up on you from out of nowhere. The process itself was actually more gradual, but you can undo the damage just as quickly as it seemed to occur, with a little help from NJ Eye and Ear. Juvederm treatments from our Englewood, NJ, clinic can erase everything from naso-labial folds to vertical lines around the lips with just one treatment. Everyone will notice, but no one will know. Unless, of course, you tell them that you had your Juvederm treatment at NJ Eye and Ear.
Young, healthy skin contains an abundance of a naturally hydrating substance called hyaluronic acid (HA). As you age, sunlight and other factors can reduce the amount of HA in your skin. The lack of HA causes your skin to lose structure and volume, creating unwanted facial wrinkles and folds, like those parentheses lines around your nose and mouth.
Dermal fillers, like JUVÉDERM® XC, are a safe and effective way to replace the HA your skin has lost, restoring its volume and smoothing away unwanted facial wrinkles and folds.
JUVÉDERM® XC is a smooth gel filler that is injected directly into your skin. It is is manufactured using HYLACROSS™ technology, and infused with lidocaine so the treatment will not hurt. After it is administered, you will instantly notice that it has smoothed away wrinkles around your mouth and nose, giving you youthful, natural-looking results that last up to a year.
Because it is considered to be a medical procedure, JUVÉDERM® treatments can only be administered by a board-certified physician, such as those at NJ Eye and Ear. Call today for an appointment.
Blepharoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the U.S. Derived from the Greek words "blepharon," for eyelids, and "plassein," which means 'to form,' it involves surgery on either the upper or lower eyelids. Surgery on the upper eyelids typically includes repairing droopy eyelids by removing excess skin, muscle and fat, or removing wrinkles. On the lower lids, it is usually performed to reduce the puffiness or "bags" that develop under the eyes with age. In either case, a small incision is made, and scarring is minimal.
