What Does Juvéderm Do?

Juvéderm in La Jolla is a popular dermal filler composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body. It works by replenishing lost volume, smoothing wrinkles, and enhancing facial contours. Juvéderm adds hydration and plumpness when injected beneath the skin, restoring a youthful appearance by filling in areas with creases or hollows. Its versatile applications make it effective for softening lines, enhancing lips, and rejuvenating various facial features.
