You want to look like the best version of yourself. Not like someone else entirely.
That’s exactly what well-placed Juvederm fillers accomplish. Whether you’re addressing volume loss in your cheeks, smoothing smile lines, or adding subtle definition to your lips, the right technique creates results that people notice but can’t quite put their finger on.
You’ll see immediate improvement that continues to look natural as it settles over the following days. Most patients return to their normal activities the same day, with any minor swelling or bruising typically resolving within a few days.
Dr. Scott Kupetz brings medical expertise to every Juvederm treatment at our Niskayuna practice. His background in dentistry provides the anatomical knowledge and steady hand technique essential for precise filler placement.
Located in Schenectady County, we have served the greater Albany area for years. We understand that Niskayuna residents value quality and natural-looking results over trendy, overdone treatments.
Every consultation starts with understanding your specific concerns and aesthetic goals, not pushing you toward the most expensive treatment option.
Your Juvederm treatment begins with a thorough consultation where Dr. Kupetz evaluates your facial structure and discusses your goals. He’ll explain which Juvederm formulation works best for your specific needs – whether that’s Juvederm Ultra for lips, Voluma for cheeks, or Vollure for smile lines.
The actual treatment takes 15-30 minutes. We clean the injection sites and may numb them with topical anesthetic. Dr. Kupetz uses precise injection techniques to place the filler exactly where it’s needed for natural-looking results.
You can return to most normal activities immediately. Some patients experience minor swelling or bruising, which typically resolves within 2-5 days. Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as the product settles.

We offer the complete range of Juvederm treatments tailored to Niskayuna patients’ preferences for subtle, natural enhancement. Lip augmentation with Juvederm Ultra XC adds volume and definition without the “duck lip” effect. Cheek enhancement with Juvederm Voluma restores youthful fullness that naturally diminishes with age.
For addressing smile lines and nasolabial folds, Juvederm Vollure provides smooth, long-lasting correction. Under-eye hollowing responds well to careful placement of Juvederm Volbella, reducing the tired appearance that bothers many patients.
Jawline contouring and chin enhancement create better facial balance and definition. Each treatment is customized based on your facial anatomy, skin thickness, and aesthetic preferences – factors that vary significantly among residents of Schenectady County and the broader Capital Region.
Duration varies by product and treatment area. Juvederm Ultra in the lips typically lasts 6-9 months, while Juvederm Voluma in the cheeks can maintain results for up to 18-24 months.
Factors affecting longevity include your metabolism, the specific area treated, and how much filler was used. Areas with more movement, like the lips, break down filler faster than static areas like the cheeks.
Most patients schedule touch-up appointments before complete fading occurs to maintain their results consistently.
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that’s FDA-approved and has an excellent safety profile. Unlike some other fillers, Juvederm can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if you’re unhappy with results.
The Juvederm family includes different formulations designed for specific areas – Ultra for lips, Voluma for cheeks, Vollure for lines. This allows for more precise treatment compared to one-size-fits-all products.
The smooth gel consistency of Juvederm tends to create more natural-looking results with less risk of lumps or irregularities when injected by an experienced provider.
Juvederm pricing typically ranges from $600-$1,200 per syringe, depending on the specific product and treatment area. Most patients need 1-2 syringes for their desired results.
Lip enhancement usually requires one syringe, while cheek augmentation often needs two syringes for balanced results. Dr. Kupetz provides exact pricing during your consultation based on your specific treatment plan.
Many patients find the cost reasonable when considering the longevity of results and the confidence boost they experience. Payment plans may be available to make treatment more accessible.
Most patients describe Juvederm injections as brief pinching sensations. Many Juvederm products contain lidocaine, a numbing agent, which reduces discomfort during and after treatment.
We can apply topical numbing cream before treatment for sensitive patients. The actual injection process takes just a few minutes per area.
After treatment, you might experience minor swelling, redness, or tenderness at injection sites. These effects are normal and typically resolve within 24-48 hours. Ice packs can help minimize swelling if needed.
Yes, Juvederm treatments can be reversed with hyaluronidase, an enzyme that dissolves hyaluronic acid fillers. This is one of the key safety advantages of choosing Juvederm over permanent fillers.
The reversal process is quick and effective, with results visible within 24-48 hours. However, most patients are satisfied with their Juvederm results when treated by an experienced injector.
Dr. Kupetz takes a conservative approach, often starting with less product to ensure you’re comfortable with the results before adding more if desired.
Juvederm results are visible immediately after treatment, though your final results develop over 1-2 weeks as any swelling subsides and the product settles naturally.
Some patients notice continued improvement for up to a month as the hyaluronic acid attracts water and integrates with your tissue. The initial results you see right after treatment will be very close to your final outcome.
You can return to work and most activities the same day, though you should avoid intense exercise for 24 hours to minimize swelling and bruising risk.
