Juvéderm is a biocompatible gel; meaning, it is derived from something that already exists in your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a natural complex sugar your body makes to help promote your skin elasticity. It's this that provides a smooth appearance to the skin when you're young and depletes as you age. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the body, and the smooth consistency gel helps to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" (nasolabial folds—the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). br br Expert dermatologist Dr. Umar at FineTouch Dermatology in Los Angeles is Board Certified and well-experienced at administering injectable fillers like Juvéderm.
