Juvederm Permanent

Your cosmetic specialists at Albany County Dental Associates not only treats cavities to maintain your dental health, but they also perform a wide range of cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening and veneers. Now they offer facial aesthetic techniques, as well. Juvéderm is a facial filler that works perfectly for plumping thinning lips, and the effect lasts for a full year! Contact your local dental practice in Albany County to schedule your procedure.

But the best cosmetic dentist in the Albany area offers you more than just a white smile and straight teeth. Facial aesthetics highlight your smile while boosting your confidence and your appearance. Juvéderm® lip injections, for example, provide a nonsurgical method for augmenting the size and shape of your lips, giving you that youthful smile that perfectly complements your teeth.

During the procedure, your dentist injects small amounts of the Juvéderm gel into your skin using a fine needle. It may feel like a slight pin prick. While some discomfort at the time of injection is normal, your dentist can include a local anesthesic, such as lidocaine, to numb your lips during the procedure. The procedure is the same for Botox® and other facial fillers.

Juvéderm lips provide a long-term solution for a more youthful look. After receiving your injections, you should avoid alcohol, strenuous exercise, sunlight and heat exposure for the first 24 hours. A healthful skincare regimen includes applying ample sunscreen to extend the life of your injections and keep your young lips looking their best.
