Are Dermal Fillers Affected by Sun Exposure?

Sadly, they are! In fact, numerous studies have shown that exposure to ultraviolet radiation in sunlight degrades the hyaluronic acid contained in Juvéderm. If you want your results to last, try not to spend too much time in the sun. But, if you have to spend prolonged time in the sun, wear a high SPF and use a topical antioxidant to help fight free radicals.


What Are Dermal Fillers Anyway?

Dermal fillers such as Juvéderm help to diminish facial lines and restore volume and fullness in the face. As we age, our faces naturally lose subcutaneous fat. The facial muscles must then work closer to the skin’s surface, leading wrinkles such as smile lines and crow’s feet to become more apparent. The facial skin also stretches a bit, adding to this loss of facial volume and other factors such as sun exposure, heredity, and lifestyle. Dermal fillers can plump thin lips, enhance shallow contours, and soften facial creases and wrinkles,  allowing us to age naturally and gracefully.

Dermal Fillers at LaserAway

At LaserAway, we are proud to offer Juvéderm. Juvéderm provides three different formulations – Juvéderm Ultra XC, Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC, and Juvéderm Voluma. Juvéderm Ultra XC is primarily for contouring, hydrating, and volumizing lips. Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC is a more robust formulation designed to add volume and correct deeper lines and facial wrinkles. In contrast, Juvéderm Voluma helps contour, lift, and restore volume in the cheeks.

Juvéderm produces immediate results, which continue to improve for one to two weeks as Juvéderm softens and draws moisture into the area. You can expect these results to last from 6 months to two years depending on the product.
