JUVÉDERM® is the #1 chosen dermal filler brand worldwide for lips. Each year, hundreds of thousands of people decide to enhance the volume and shape of their lips with these dynamic, long-lasting, and natural-looking hyaluronic acid-based fillers. But did you know that JUVÉDERM® can do so much more for the appearance of your lips than merely giving you a plumper pout?
The Lip Fillers of The JUVÉDERM® Collection™
The JUVÉDERM® Collection™ of fillers includes two fillers that are FDA-indicated for the lips:
JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC is an injectable gel that temporarily adds more fullness and plumps thin lips—whether your lips have thinned over time or you want fuller lips—in adults over the age of 21. If you want to “plump up the volume” in your lips, Ultra XC is for you!
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC injectable gel is for injection into the lips for lip augmentation and for correction of perioral lines (lines around the mouth), often called lipstick lines, vertical lip lines, or lip wrinkles in adults over the age of 21. It is incredibly soft and perfect for first-time lip enhancement clients or those seeking a subtle boost of volume.
Both of these lip fillers last up to one year with optimal treatment.
#1 – Increase the volume of your lips
JUVÉDERM® is famous for delivering gorgeous, full, 100% natural-looking lips. Both JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC and Ultra XC are comprised of hyaluronic acid, a molecule that, when injected into the skin, attracts and binds water to itself from surrounding tissues. This action causes a “plumping” effect that gives lips soft, beautiful volume. Whether you have thin lips and have always wished they were fuller, or you want to give your lips a sexy boost of volume, JUVÉDERM® delivers.
#2 – Define the border of your lips
As we age, we may lose definition and support to the border of our lips. When injected into the lip’s border, JUVÉDERM® can help give fresh, youthful-looking definition and even support an upper lip that has begun to turn down. When appropriate, your Injection Specialist can even add definition to your cupid’s bow and/or the area between your nose and upper lip (philtrum) to provide additional support to the upper lip.
#3 – Improve the appearance of lines around the lips
Even if you’ve never touched a cigarette in your entire life, you can still have “smoker’s lines” around your lips. These small, pesky lines, also called “lipstick lines,” form due to the frequent muscle contractions our lips make when speaking, especially any motion akin to sucking on a straw or smoking. A common complaint many clients have is lipstick bleeding into these tiny lines. Due to its soft, pillowy consistency, JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC is very effective at filling and smoothing these small lines.
#4 – Correct asymmetries
Very few people have perfectly symmetrical lips, or faces, for that matter! On most, these asymmetries are not detectable enough to cause concern or even be that noticeable. For some people, though, asymmetries in the lips are very prominent, especially side to side. In these cases, JUVÉDERM® can be used to improve balance and symmetry to the lips, which can ultimately enhance the face’s overall appearance as well!
#5 – Balance the upper and lower lip
If your top or bottom lip is significantly smaller than its partner, JUVÉDERM® can help boost their balance. It can be injected into the smaller lip’s body to bring it into better balance with the opposite lip. Having harmony between the size and shape of the upper and lower lip can dramatically affect the appearance of the lips and the entire face.
