Choosing the best Juvederm provider for your needs should be based on a number of factors, including the expertise of the clinician, the specific conditions you hope to correct and your own expectations.
Before your initial consultation with any potential Juvederm provider, it’s a good idea to spend some time researching the procedure, as well as the Juvederm material itself, to get a better understanding of the types of conditions that are best treated with the procedure, the types of outcomes you can expect, and the overall procedure, as well as any potential side effects. Be sure to write down any questions you may have about these or other considerations so that you may discuss them during your consultation visit.
In addition to any general questions you may have about the Juvederm material, procedure or outcomes, also be sure to ask your potential treatment provider about his or her credentials, as well as about any special training he or she may have received regarding Juvederm and its use. Also ask about general cosmetic treatment experience, and whether or not the practitioner has any special certifications.
Because there are three specific formulations of Juvederm, you may want to discuss how much experience your provider has had with the different forms. Even though you will probably receive one specific type of Juvederm formulation, making sure the practitioner has worked with all three solutions ensures that he or she will be better able to evaluate your needs with respect to these different formulas.
The consultation visit is also an ideal time to ask to see before and after photos of other patients who have been treated with Juvederm. To get the best idea of how Juvederm will work for your needs, ask to see photos of men and women with conditions similar to your own.
