Juvederm treatments are designed to be comfortable, which is important for patients in Delanson who may feel anxious about cosmetic procedures. Every formula contains lidocaine, a local anesthetic that numbs the treatment area within seconds of injection. Most patients describe the sensation as mild pressure rather than pain.
You might experience some tenderness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites for a few days after treatment. This is completely normal and typically resolves within a week. Applying ice intermittently can help reduce any swelling, and we provide specific aftercare instructions.
Recovery is minimal—most Schenectady County patients return to work immediately after their Juvederm treatment. You should avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol for 24 hours after treatment. No special aftercare products or lengthy downtime required, making it convenient for busy schedules.
