Juvederm Ultra 4 is a high-quality dermal filler designed to correct deep wrinkles, folds, and volume defects in the skin, as well as to restore lost facial volume. The product was developed by the renowned company Allergan, a global leader in aesthetic medicine and dermatology, which also produces other popular products such as Botox and the Juvederm family of fillers.
Juvederm Ultra 4 is an injectable gel based on hyaluronic acid, which is widely used to correct age-related changes in the face, such as skin sagging, volume loss in the cheeks and under the eyes, and to enhance facial contours. This filler provides a noticeable lifting effect and helps restore the skin’s natural firmness, while the results of the procedure remain natural and long-lasting.
Composition. Methods of Application.
Composition of Juvederm Ultra 4: Juvederm Ultra 4 is based on high-quality hyaluronic acid, which is used in its stabilized form (Vycross™ Technology). This technology ensures a longer-lasting effect and also helps the product to distribute easily in the skin, creating a natural result. Each hyaluronic acid molecule in Juvederm Ultra 4 works on a deep level, stimulating collagen production and improving tissue hydration.
The product has a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid, making it suitable for deeper injections and correcting significant skin defects, such as deep wrinkles and volume loss.
Methods of Application: Juvederm Ultra 4 is applied through injections, which are performed by a qualified cosmetic doctor or dermatologist. The product is injected into the middle and deep layers of the dermis, where its molecules effectively fill in wrinkles and folds, restoring volume and facial contours.
- Procedure: Juvederm Ultra 4 injections are typically performed in areas with the most pronounced signs of aging, such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin, cheekbones, and the area around the eyes. The injection is carried out using a fine needle or cannula, which minimizes discomfort.
- Treatment Course: The effects of a single procedure last from 12 to 18 months, depending on the individual characteristics of the patient, the area of application, and the skin type. To achieve optimal results, 1-2 sessions may be required.
- Result: Improvement in facial contours, volume restoration in the desired areas, smoothing of deep wrinkles, and skin firmness restoration can be seen just a few days after the procedure. The result has a natural and harmonious appearance, without excessive “overloading” of the tissue.
