The short answer
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler used at our Wake Forest location to restore volume in the cheeks, folds, chin and jawline. It is placed in small increments and assessed as treatment proceeds. The result is temporary and can be dissolved if adjustment is required.

Jawline and chin definition has overtaken cheek volume as the most common filler request in this market, and the reason patients give is consistent: they have looked at themselves on video calls. That is a legitimate starting point and it usually leads to a structural discussion rather than a line-filling one.
Juvederm is a family of gels of differing firmness. The firmer gels give structure along the jaw and chin; softer ones belong elsewhere. Matching gel to site is the technical core of the treatment.

A steady share come from Raleigh, twenty-five minutes south on US-1, and from Rolesville and Youngsville. Several arrive with treatment history from a Triangle practice, which is reviewed before anything is added.
