Juvéderm® FAQs

Can I wear makeup after Juvederm?

You can apply makeup after Juvederm but should remember that the treatment area is likely to be sensitive after injections.

Can you drink alcohol after Juvederm?

Its recommended that you wait at least 24 hours after receiving Juvederm injections before drinking alcohol.

Can juvederm be reversed?

Juvederm can be reversed by injecting enzymes that break down hyaluronic acid.

Can you get half a syringe of Juvederm?

You can receive half a syringe of Juvederm. However, most patients require at least one syringe to reach the best results, and treatment is priced per syringe.

Can juvederm cause blindness?

If improperly injected, Juvederm can cause severe complications including blindness. For this reason, it is crucial to choose an experienced injector.

Can you wash your face after Juvederm?

We ask that patients wash their face immediately before Juvederm but wait a few hours to push on their skin so as not to affect the results.

Yes, but some Juvederm treatments last up to a year depending on what type is used and where it is injected.

As a hyaluronic acid filler, Juvederm draws water molecules to the skin, helping to plump and restore natural volume in areas of volume loss or wrinkling.
