Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC in Denver, CO

Juvéderm is a collection of long-lasting, hyaluronic acid dermal fillers designed for different needs in specific areas. Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC corrects moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, including smile lines around the nose and mouth. It helps restore volume, enhances facial contours, and smooths fine lines.

How is Ultra Plus XC Different?

Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC stands out from other fillers because of its unique formulation and thicker, more robust consistency. It is particularly effective for adding substantial volume in areas such as the cheeks and jawline and treating deeper wrinkles, including marionette lines and nasolabial folds.

This filler is ideal for patients looking to correct areas with significant volume loss or deeper facial folds. Its thicker consistency provides long-lasting support in areas where deeper correction is required. Like all Juvéderm fillers, it is made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps hydrate the skin and maintain its volume.
