Juvederm now has lidocaine in the syringe...

Juvederm is one of the many fillers that is used to rejuvenate facial folds and enhance lips. It is a great product and we have used it regularly in thousands of patients over the years, along with other fillers like Radiesse, Sculptra, and the patient's own fat. One of the downsides is that Juvederm is somewhat painful when injected and requires additional anesthetic blocks to make the patient comfortable. Now Juvederm with lidocaine has just been approved. With the addition of the anesthetic lidocaine in the syringe, the Juvederm should be much easier to tolerate. So if you have been delaying your injection to avoid discomfort, then you have no reason not to come in and enhance those lips or folds that you are not happy with. Just call 732-548-3200 for an appointment and we will be happy to see you.
