JUVEDERM ® is an injectable substance called a dermal filler that can be used to smooth away wrinkles by filling in areas under the face or body and also influencing the development of collagen for providing a youthful, vibrant appearance.
FDA Approval for JUVEDERM ®
JUVEDERM ® is one of the newest dermal filler products on the market. According to industry sources, it was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2006 for use in correcting some facial lines and wrinkles. JUVEDERM ® is now a common supply in the offices of professional cosmetic dermatologists who administer it through outpatient procedures that are generally scheduled.
Generally, the FDA approval of JUVEDERM ® is based on tests that showed no negative impact on human health. It also helps that JUVEDERM ® has been created to simulate hylauronic acid, a natural substance in the tissues under the skin, so that this type of dermal filler provides a more organic option than some other products known as ?synthetic? or ?permanent? fillers, some of which have been subject to more testing and a less positive regulatory result.
