At Rouge & Wright, we understand that aging gracefully is an important aspect of life.

We’ve compiled a comprehensive FAQ guide to help answer your questions about Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC.
What is Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC?
Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC is a cosmetic injectable made from hyaluronic acid, which is a natural sugar found in the body that helps to hydrate and add volume to the skin. It’s designed to fill in moderate-to-severe wrinkles and lines, including smile lines and marionette lines.
How does Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC work?
Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC works by restoring volume to areas where it’s lost due to skin aging. The hyaluronic acid in the injectable binds with water molecules in the skin to plump up and smooth out wrinkles and lines. The XC in the name stands for extra comfort, as it has lidocaine added for a more comfortable injection experience.
What areas of the face can Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC treat?
Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC is commonly used to treat smile lines, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. It can also be used to add volume to the cheeks, chin, and lips.
How long will the results last?
Results from Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC can last up to one year. Over time, the hyaluronic acid is naturally broken down and absorbed by the body, so the treatment will need to be repeated to maintain the desired results.
Is there any downtime?
Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC is a non-surgical treatment, so there is no downtime. You can go about your daily life immediately following the treatment.
Are there any side effects?
As with any injectable treatment, there may be some swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site. These side effects are typically mild and will resolve within a few days.
Is Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC safe?
Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds. It’s also been extensively studied and deemed safe for most patients.
Who is a good candidate for Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC?
Anyone who is concerned about facial wrinkles or loss of volume is a potential candidate for Juvéderm Ultra Plus XC. However, we recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our providers to determine if it’s the best treatment for your specific needs.
Is there anything I should do to prepare for the treatment?
We advise that you avoid alcohol, blood thinners, and aspirin for several days prior to your treatment to minimize any bruising or bleeding at the injection site.
