What to Expect from Your Juvederm Treatment

At Renouveau MedSpa, your Juvederm experience is carefully customized to meet your unique aesthetic goals and skin care needs. A typical Juvederm treatment at our practice is quick, comfortable, and convenient, generally lasting between 15 to 60 minutes. The exact duration depends on factors such as the specific area being treated, the amount of filler required, and your individual skin condition and treatment objectives.

Before starting your Juvederm treatment, our experienced medical specialists will conduct a detailed consultation. During this personalized session, we will discuss your aesthetic goals, evaluate your skin’s condition, and carefully select the ideal Juvederm formulation and quantity to achieve natural-looking results. To ensure your comfort, we may apply a topical anesthetic or numbing cream before injections, which typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes to become fully effective.

The actual injection procedure itself is quick and efficient, typically completed within just a few minutes. Following treatment, you can expect minimal downtime and will generally be able to return immediately to most of your daily activities. At Renouveau MedSpa, your comfort, safety, and satisfaction are always our top priorities, allowing you to achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance with ease and confidence.

Our Juvederm treatments are specifically designed to be gentle, minimally uncomfortable, and easily tolerated by most of our patients. Prior to your Juvederm session, our experienced medical providers carefully apply a topical anesthetic cream or numbing agent to the treatment area, significantly reducing sensitivity and ensuring that your experience is as comfortable as possible.

Our patients commonly describe the sensation during Juvederm injections as mild pressure or a slight pinch, with any discomfort being brief and quickly subsiding after the procedure. Following your treatment, you may experience slight tenderness, mild swelling, or minimal bruising at the injection sites; however, these mild symptoms typically resolve within just a few days.

We recognize that everyone’s comfort levels and sensitivities vary. That’s why we personalize each Juvederm procedure to your individual needs, taking into account your pain sensitivity, the treatment area, and the specific injection techniques used. Our expert providers are always available to discuss any questions or concerns you may have regarding your comfort or pain management prior to your treatment, ensuring you feel confident and relaxed throughout your entire experience.

At Renouveau MedSpa, we are committed to helping you achieve beautiful, natural-looking results through safe and personalized care. To ensure the best possible outcome from your Juvederm treatment, please review and follow the guidelines below:

• Schedule Appropriately: We recommend scheduling your Juvederm appointment at least two weeks before any important events or special occasions, as mild bruising or swelling may occur immediately following your treatment.
• Medications and Supplements: Please inform your practitioner about any medications or supplements you are currently taking. Blood-thinning medications—such as aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, or certain herbal supplements—can increase the risk of bruising or bleeding. Your practitioner may suggest temporarily stopping these medications approximately one week prior to your treatment. However, never discontinue any prescribed medications without first consulting your primary care physician.
• Avoid Alcohol: To minimize bruising and swelling, please avoid alcohol consumption for at least 24 hours before your treatment.
• Skin Treatments and Procedures: We advise you to avoid other facial treatments—including waxing, chemical peels, laser services, or facials—in the targeted treatment area for at least one week prior to your Juvederm appointment.
• Cold Sore Precautions: If you have a history of cold sores or herpes simplex virus outbreaks, please inform our Renouveau MedSpa team in advance, as injectable treatments may trigger an outbreak. We can provide guidance and recommend preventive measures if necessary.
• Day-of-Appointment Preparation: On the day of your appointment, please arrive with a clean face, free of makeup, skincare products, or lotions. This ensures a sterile treatment environment and optimal results.
• Consultation & Communication: Our highly trained practitioners encourage open and honest communication regarding your treatment goals, expectations, and any concerns or questions you may have.

Following these guidelines will help you enjoy a comfortable experience and achieve optimal results from your Juvederm treatment at Renouveau MedSpa. If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to our knowledgeable staff—we’re here to help!

At Renouveau MedSpa, your comfort, safety, and satisfaction are our top priorities. Following your Juvederm treatment, you may notice mild swelling, redness, tenderness, or slight bruising around the injection areas. Rest assured, these symptoms are typically mild, temporary, and usually subside within a few days. To ease any discomfort and help minimize swelling, we recommend gently applying ice packs intermittently to the treated areas.

It is normal to experience slight asymmetry or firmness in the first few hours after the procedure. These effects will generally resolve quickly as your body naturally adjusts to the filler. We advise you to avoid touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to the injected areas for at least 24 hours to ensure the filler settles evenly and achieves optimal results.

Our specialists also recommend limiting strenuous physical activities, alcohol consumption, excessive sun exposure, and blood-thinning medications for a brief period after your treatment. This guidance helps further reduce potential swelling and bruising, ensuring you experience the best possible aesthetic outcome.

You will likely notice immediate improvement in facial volume, smoothness, and contouring after your Juvederm injections, with the full, beautiful results becoming more evident once any initial swelling subsides. Should you experience severe discomfort, prolonged swelling, or any unusual side effects, please contact Renouveau MedSpa immediately.
