Juvederm Ultra 3 – Moderate Folds Filler

Description

Juvederm Ultra 3 with Lidocaine is an elite, sterile, pyrogen-free dermal filler engineered for the correction of moderate-to-deep facial wrinkles, midface contouring, and advanced lip augmentation. Developed by Allergan Aesthetics, this premium injectable leverages proprietary Ultra Ultra™ (Hylacross™) Technology to create a highly cohesive, homogenous, and malleable Hyaluronic Acid (HA) gel. Striking an ideal balance between fluid flexibility and structural support, Juvederm Ultra 3 flows smoothly into mid-to-deep dermal layers, delivering supple, natural-looking volume and seamless integration within highly dynamic expression zones.

Main Benefits of Juvederm Ultra 3

• Versatile Mid-Dermal Volumization: Perfectly balanced consistency allows for both the smooth flattening of moderate wrinkles and the structural shaping of facial features.

• The Lip Augmentation Standard: Widely celebrated by practitioners for adding plumping volume, shaping the body of the lip, and maintaining a soft, natural texture when smiling.

• Hylacross™ Cohesive Matrix: Features a highly cross-linked, single-phase (monophasic) gel that provides a smooth, uniform flow during injection and prevents product fragmentation within the tissue.

• Integrated Local Anesthetic: Infused with 0.3% Lidocaine Hydrochloride, which desensitizes the target area instantly to ensure premium patient comfort and reduced procedural stress.

• Proven Clinical Longevity: The uniform cross-linking network slows enzymatic breakdown, allowing the aesthetic results to persist beautifully for 9 to 12 months.

Indications

Juvederm Ultra 3 is indicated for mid-to-deep dermal integration and lip submucosal deployment to correct volume deficits:

• Moderate Nasolabial Folds: Softening and smoothing out the noticeable lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth.

• Marionette Lines & Oral Commissures: Correcting moderate vertical creases and lifting downturned corners of the mouth.

• Full Lip Augmentation: Injecting volume, symmetry, and plumpness into the body of the upper and lower lips.

• Subtle Cheek & Midface Contouring: Restoring light volume loss in the malar areas to lift the midface structure.

• Perioral Rejuvenation: Filling deeper structural wrinkles surrounding the mouth zone.

Mechanism of Action

The formulation operates through Balanced Homogenous Tissue Expansion:

1. Immediate Cavity Volumization: Upon targeted mid-to-deep dermal placement, the Hylacross gel acts as a smooth, uniform structural mesh that pushes up the depressed wrinkle valleys.

2. Hydrodynamic Fluid Anchoring: The pure HA chains trap and hold water molecules within the interstitial matrices, maintaining the expanded shape and enhancing local tissue suppleness.

3. Resistance to Shear Force: The single-phase gel structure allows the filler to flex and deform naturally with everyday facial movements (talking, smiling) without displacing or fracturing.

4. Sustained Isovolemic Breakdown: As the cross-linked bonds slowly split apart over several months, the remaining HA fragments hold additional moisture, keeping the total volume stable until final absorption.

Administration Protocol

• Technique: Administered using precise linear threading, retrograde fanning, or the pucker/micro-droplet technique for detailed lip sculpting.

• Injection Tool: Delivered utilizing the provided 27G needles or a premium 25G to 27G blunt-tipped cannula to comfortably navigate highly dynamic structural areas while minimizing bruising.

• Injection Depth: Must be placed strictly into the mid-to-deep dermis or the lip submucosa. Overly superficial placement can lead to visible product tracking or small lumps, while deep subcutaneous placement may dilute its lifting capacity on moderate wrinkles.

• Post-Treatment Care: A gentle manual massage by the practitioner immediately post-procedure guarantees a perfectly flat, uniform layout. Patients must avoid makeup for 12 hours, avoid strenuous workouts, and skip saunas or direct heat for 48 hours.

FAQ

Q: How does Juvederm Ultra 3 differ from Juvederm Ultra 2 and Ultra 4?

A: Juvederm Ultra 3 is the medium-viscosity “all-rounder” of the classic Hylacross range. Ultra 2 is a much thinner gel designed strictly for fine, superficial lines and crisp lip borders. Ultra 4 is a highly viscous, heavy gel engineered exclusively for deep folds, cheekbone sculpting, and significant volume replenishment.

Q: Is there downtime after getting Juvederm Ultra 3?

A: Downtime is exceptionally minimal. Because it is highly cohesive and fluid, it causes less tissue trauma. However, when injected into highly vascular regions like the lips, temporary localized swelling, mild redness, and minor bruising may appear, usually subsiding completely within 2 to 5 days.

Q: Can Juvederm Ultra 3 be completely dissolved?

A: Yes. Because Juvederm Ultra 3 is a pure, biocompatible Hyaluronic Acid gel, it can be quickly, safely, and completely dissolved at any time using professional hyaluronidase injections (such as Liporase) in the event of asymmetry or overcorrection.
