All other currently approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are made of granular consistency gels.

5. How is Juvederm injectable gel different from BOTOX Cosmetic? Show
Juvederm injectable gel is a "next-generation" hyaluronic acid dermal filler that provides volume and is used to treat wrinkles and folds resulting from a loss of volume beneath the surface of the skin such as perioral lines and nasolabial folds (lines around your mouth and nose). Juvederm restores your skin's volume for a smooth, natural look and feel. BOTOX Cosmetic is not a filler. BOTOX Cosmetic relaxes muscle activity and is used to treat moderate to severe lines caused by the dominant frown muscles between the eyebrows (the glabellar area). This allows the two vertical lines between the brows, often referred to as the "11," to temporarily diminish for a smoother appearance.Hide

Juvederm temporarily adds volume to the skin and may give the appearance of a smoother surface.Hide
