About Juvederm®
Juvederm® is the number one recommended filler in Canada and is highly recommended by doctors around the world.

What You should know about Juvederm® Treatments at LightTouch Med Spa
Juvederm® is a safe way to stimulate collagen production, as it is made primarily of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm® enhance volume, replenish elasticity, and foster smoothness and structure. Our Nurse Practitioner will determine how many vials of Juvederm® are appropriate for you based on the area being treated. Juvederm® treatments last from 1 year up to 18 months. Since hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in your body, it is a safe way to reduce the look of wrinkles and lines, while plumping areas of your face that have become thinner or less voluminous with age.

Our Nurse Practitioner will help you determine the appropriate of filler for your individual goals.
How much do dermal fillers cost?
The cost of dermal fillers will vary from client to client, as every individual has different skincare and beauty goals. Furthermore, everyone has a unique facial structure and will require a varied amount. This is why we offer complimentary consultations– so that our Nurse Practitioner can assess you and offer you her professional opinion as to how much you’ll need.
Can I consume alcohol near the time of my appointment?
We recommend that you avoid medications that prolong bleeding for up to two days before your appointment. You should avoid aspirin and alcoholic beverages, and be sure to ask if you should refrain from any other routines before treatment.
What can I expect during my treatment?
Right before treatment, our Nurse Practitioner will cleanse the injection site and offer you a numbing agent to reduce any discomfort you may otherwise experience. Mild discomfort may be experienced, but overall it is not a painful process. The amount of filler required for your individual treatment will be administered through a cannula needle into the injection site. The Nurse will then smooth out the filler once it has been injected below the dermis, to ensure that the filler has been properly placed into the correct areas.
Why do you use cannula needles?
Our Nurse Injectors use Cannula needles to administer Juvederm® in order to minimize bruising and swelling after treatment. Cannula needles are preferred over sharp tipped needles, as often, sharp tipped needles result in more discomfort during treatments and bruising after treatment.
What can I expect after my treatment?
After the treatment is concluded, you may experience slight tenderness, temporary redness, swelling, and in 10 percent of cases, slight bruising. These symptoms are usually mild, and typically ice packs help to relieve swelling and discomfort. Our Nurse Practitioner offers complimentary follow-up appointments so that you can sit in and discuss your results to ensure your satisfaction.

Some treatments are contraindications to dermal filler treatments. Depending on the nature of other treatments you are receiving, we may not recommend Juvederm® or other dermal fillers at this time.
