Hear from Our Customers
You want to look like yourself—just better. That’s exactly what happens when Juvederm is done right.
The results speak for themselves: smoother skin where you had lines, fuller lips that still move naturally, and cheeks that look lifted without looking artificial. You’ll notice the difference immediately, but so will everyone else—they just won’t be able to put their finger on exactly what changed.
Most patients tell us they feel more confident in photos again. They stop avoiding mirrors. They actually look forward to seeing people they haven’t seen in a while, instead of dreading those conversations about “how tired” they look.
Dr. Scott Kupetz has been serving families throughout Rensselaer County since 1988, building relationships that span generations. Our practice in nearby Wappingers Falls has become the go-to destination for residents of Hoosick Falls who want aesthetic treatments from someone they can trust.
What sets Dr. Kupetz apart isn’t just his three decades of experience—it’s his understanding of what patients actually want. He knows you’re not looking to completely change your face. You want subtle improvements that make you feel more like yourself.
His expertise in sedation dentistry also means he’s uniquely qualified to help patients who feel anxious about injections. Many of our Juvederm patients specifically chose us because they knew we could keep them comfortable throughout the entire process.
Your Juvederm treatment starts with a detailed consultation where Dr. Kupetz listens to your concerns and examines your facial structure. He’ll explain exactly what Juvederm can and cannot do for your specific situation—no overselling, just honest assessment.
During treatment, he uses proven injection techniques to place the hyaluronic acid gel precisely where it’s needed. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is, especially with the numbing cream and sedation options we offer. The entire appointment typically takes 30-45 minutes.
You’ll see immediate improvement, though final results develop over the next few days as any minor swelling subsides. Dr. Kupetz provides detailed aftercare instructions and schedules a follow-up to ensure you’re completely satisfied with your results.

We offer the full spectrum of Juvederm products, each designed for specific areas and concerns. Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus work beautifully for lip enhancement and moderate facial lines. Juvederm Voluma provides excellent cheek lifting and midface volume restoration that can last up to two years.
For patients in Hoosick Falls dealing with deeper nasolabial folds or marionette lines, Juvederm Vollure offers natural-looking correction that moves with your facial expressions. The newer Juvederm Volbella is perfect for subtle lip enhancement and those fine vertical lip lines that become more noticeable over time.
What makes the difference in Rensselaer County is having a provider who understands facial anatomy and has the experience to choose the right product for your specific needs. Dr. Kupetz’s background in dentistry gives him an intimate understanding of facial structure that translates into more precise, natural-looking results.
Juvederm results typically last 6-18 months, depending on which product is used and the treatment area. The climate in Hoosick Falls and Rensselaer County doesn’t significantly impact longevity—your body’s natural metabolism is the main factor.
Lip treatments generally last 6-9 months since that area has more movement and blood flow. Cheek enhancement with Juvederm Voluma can last up to two years. Most patients find they want touch-ups before the product is completely gone, usually when they notice they’re about 70% of the way back to where they started.
Dr. Kupetz will give you a realistic timeline during your consultation based on the specific areas you want to treat and which Juvederm products will work best for your goals.
Dr. Kupetz’s dental background provides significant advantages for facial aesthetic treatments. His understanding of facial anatomy, particularly around the mouth and lower face, is more detailed than most providers who focus only on surface aesthetics.
Dentists also have extensive experience with facial injections and managing patient comfort during procedures. Dr. Kupetz has been giving injections in the facial area for over 30 years, so the technical skills transfer naturally to cosmetic treatments.
Perhaps most importantly, his experience with sedation dentistry means we can offer comfort options that many other providers cannot. If you’re nervous about needles or have had bad experiences with injections before, this expertise can make your Juvederm treatment much more pleasant.
Juvederm pricing varies based on the specific product used and the amount needed to achieve your goals. Most treatments in the Rensselaer County area range from $600-$1,200 per syringe, with most patients needing 1-2 syringes for their desired results.
Dr. Kupetz provides transparent pricing during your consultation after he’s assessed exactly what you need. He won’t try to oversell you on treatments you don’t need, and he’ll prioritize the areas that will give you the most improvement for your investment.
Many patients find that the longevity of Juvederm makes it cost-effective compared to other treatments they’ve tried. When you break down the cost over 12-18 months, it often works out to less than many people spend on skincare products that don’t provide nearly the same level of improvement.
Juvederm is FDA-approved and has an excellent safety record when administered by experienced providers. The hyaluronic acid in Juvederm is identical to what your body naturally produces, which minimizes the risk of allergic reactions.
Common side effects are typically mild and temporary: slight swelling, redness, or tenderness at injection sites that resolves within a few days. Some patients experience minor bruising, especially if they take blood thinners or certain supplements.
Dr. Kupetz’s experience significantly reduces your risk of complications. He understands facial anatomy thoroughly and uses proper injection techniques. He also provides detailed pre-treatment instructions to minimize bruising and ensures you know exactly what to expect during recovery.
When done correctly, Juvederm should enhance your natural features rather than change them dramatically. The goal is for people to notice you look refreshed and rested, not to identify that you’ve had cosmetic work done.
Dr. Kupetz specializes in natural-looking results because he understands that most patients in the Hoosick Falls area want subtle improvements. He uses conservative amounts initially and builds gradually if needed, rather than trying to achieve dramatic changes in one session.
The key is working with someone who listens to your concerns and has the restraint to know when to stop. Many patients tell Dr. Kupetz that friends and family comment on how great they look but can’t pinpoint exactly what’s different—which is exactly the result most people want.
Preparation is straightforward but important for optimal results. Stop taking blood thinners, aspirin, and supplements like fish oil or vitamin E one week before treatment to minimize bruising. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment.
Recovery is minimal for most patients. You can return to normal activities immediately, though you should avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours. Some swelling and tenderness is normal and typically resolves within 2-3 days.
Dr. Kupetz provides detailed aftercare instructions and is available if you have any concerns during recovery. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how easy the process is, especially compared to what they expected. The key is following the pre-treatment guidelines and being patient as your final results develop over the first week.
