Juvederm® is one of the most visible brands in the skincare industry and it is not uncommon for patients to ask for it by name. If you are looking for  Juvederm treatment in and around Foster City (e.g., San Mateo or Burlingame), you need to take the short drive over to Foster City to see us at Silicon Valley Aesthetic Dermatology where it is one of the brands that we use to restore skin to a youthful appearance.Juvederm® is a popular choice for skincare by San Mateo residents

It’s a sad fact of life that as we get older our skin begins to sag and become wrinkled. Some people just put up with it and accept it as something that happens, but if you want to continue looking your absolute best then there are plenty of things that we can do to help you.

San Mateo is an affluent city, and its’ residents like to take care of themselves and look great at all times. This is why we get a lot of calls for Juvederm servcies in and around San Mateo. It is what is known as an injectable, and it is based on hyaluronic acid, or HA. This is a natural substance in the body that keeps the skin taught and fresh-looking, but as we get older, we produce less of it. So where there was a volume of HA there is now less and as a result the skin begins to sag and those wrinkles begin to appear.

With a few pricks of a needle, the gel plumps sunken areas, smooths fine lines, and decreases shadows – then slowly dissolves over the course of about a year. In injectables such as Juvederm, hyaluronic acid is bound in a gel carrier which holds it in place where it is injected. The hyaluronic acid creates volume because it draws in water to the area, creating a filling effect.

San Mateo Residents Love To Look Great All The Time

Side effects are minimal: you may possibly experience some swelling or bruising that can last for two or three days. As anyone will tell you. the most important thing to remember when getting any kind of filler or injectable is to go to a trained and board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon such as our Dr. Miguel Canales if you are seeking San Mateo Juvederm.

And why wouldn’t you? When you want to look your absolute best at all times, Juvederm could very well be the right answer. Certainly, at Silicon Valley Aesthetic Dermatology we also offer other procedures but we need to see you and ascertain your skin type and condition, so that we can advise you on the best treatment for you as an individual. No two people are exactly the same, but our trained estheticians will examine your skin and can provide Juvederm if that is the best treatment for you.

We offer all patients a completely free consultation, so click on the Contact link at the top of the page right now to book yours.
