JUVÉDERM® XC

JUVÉDERM® XC is a smooth gel filler used by doctors at Tru-Skin Dermatology to quickly reduce the appearance of wrinkles around your nose and mouth. A single treatment will provide long-lasting and natural-looking results for up to a full year. Ongoing treatments can create the appearance of a beautiful, younger-looking you.

Manufactured with Hylacross™ technology, JUVÉDERM XC is a smooth-consistency gel, its comfort ensured through an infusion of lidocaine. In a single treatment, you’ll see the smooth results you’ve come to expect with JUVÉDERM products, as well as undergo a more enjoyable treatment experience. Its durable form means that it’s long lasting and perfect for getting rid of more severe facial lines, as opposed to other JUVÉDERM products designed for shallower wrinkles.

JUVÉDERM XC Examples

Good Candidates for JUVÉDERM XC

Ideal candidates are those with:
  • Wrinkles around the nose or mouth that are moderate to severe
  • Lines and wrinkles caused by age and environment
  • Sensitivity to needles, injections, or pain
  • A desire for results that can last up to one year

How to Prepare for JUVÉDERM XC Injections

Ask your doctor how best to prepare for injections and be sure to follow these guidelines:
  • Inform your doctor if planning laser treatments or chemical peels to avoid inflammation.
  • Skin injuries near the injection site may increase side effect risk.
  • Inform your doctor if on immunosuppressive therapy, as it may increase infection risk.
  • Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen to prevent bleeding at the injection site.

Why Choose JUVÉDERM XC?

JUVÉDERM XC restores the appearance of young, healthy skin by injecting gel fillers into treatment areas. It is formulated with hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally occurs in the skin and helps maintain hydration and volume. By replenishing hyaluronic acid levels, JUVÉDERM XC can effectively smooth away wrinkles and restore facial contours. Some patients prefer the product over others because it has lidocaine in the gel. JUVÉDERM XC needs to be provided by a licensed medical professional, such as the Austin, TX, experts at Tru-Skin Dermatology. The treatment is safe and FDA-approved, providing long-lasting results that can boost confidence and self-esteem.

What to Expect from JUVÉDERM XC Injections

Before deciding to receive JUVÉDERM XC injections, you will consult with your dermatologist about its benefits and risks. Once you arrive for your treatment appointment, our staff will clean and disinfect the area before injecting the gel. JUVÉDERM XC is unique to the JUVÉDERM line of products because of the addition of lidocaine to the gel. This can greatly reduce any pain or discomfort experienced at the injection site, making it the perfect wrinkle-smoothing treatment for patients who are particularly sensitive to pain

JUVÉDERM XC Post-Treatment Care

After the treatment, we recommend you avoid exercise, alcohol, strenuous activity, or touching the treatment site for at least 24 hours. If you are having any severe side effects, contact your doctor so we can make sure you are healing correctly. Noticeable results will last for up to a full year post-injection. Feel free to schedule your next treatment after your initial visit.

JUVÉDERM XC FAQs

JUVÉDERM XC is a dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. It is used to add volume, smooth out wrinkles, and improve facial contours.

JUVÉDERM XC is commonly used to treat:

  • Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Marionette lines
  • Vertical lip lines
  • Lips for augmentation

The effects of JUVÉDERM XC can last from 6 months to 1 year, depending on the area treated and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle.

Results are typically visible immediately after the treatment, with full effects appearing once any swelling or bruising subsides, usually within a few days.
