If you have annoying fine lines and wrinkles around your lips, chances are you would like to find an effective way to reduce them. Lines around the lips are a common sign of aging, and are mainly formed by muscle movement. But how can you repair lines and wrinkles on and around the lips.
Dermal fillers are a popular option for smoothing lines around the lips, often referred to as smokers’ lines. Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is one of the most effective fillers for this area.
What is Juvederm Ultra Plus XC?
Juvederm Ultra Plus is a hyaluronic acid (HA) based dermal filler that is specially designed to fill in lines and wrinkles around the nose, and mouth. HA is naturally present in the skin, and helps to keep it moisturized.
Juvederm Ultra Plus XC for repairing lines on and around the lips
A tiny needle is used to inject Juvederm Ultra Plus under the skin. When injected, the HA molecules in Juvederm Ultra Plus absorb water, and this causes them to expand and add volume to the lines around the lips. It also makes the skin smoother and softer.
Juvederm Ultra Plus is comprised of synthetic, biodegradable HA, so the treatment is extremely safe. The procedure is also quite comfortable because the filler contains a small quantity of lidocaine, which is a local anesthetic.
In order to achieve natural looking results with Juvederm Ultra Plus, patients are advised to consult with a qualified, experienced practitioner preferably, a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist.
