You walk out looking refreshed, not different. That’s the difference between getting Juvederm from someone who’s been perfecting facial aesthetics for over three decades versus someone still learning the craft.
Your face regains the volume and smoothness it had years ago. Fine lines soften. Your lips look fuller but still yours. Cheeks lift naturally. The hollow under-eye area fills in subtly.
Most importantly, people notice you look great but can’t quite put their finger on what changed. That’s exactly what you want from a dermal filler treatment.
Dr. Scott Kupetz has been one of the only dentists in Pleasant Valley offering Juvederm and Botox since these treatments became available. That’s over 30 years of experience helping Dutchess County residents look and feel their best.
We’re not new to facial anatomy or injection techniques. We’ve been working with the delicate structures of your face longer than most providers have been in practice.
Our approach is conservative and natural-looking because we understand that good aesthetic work shouldn’t announce itself. You should look like the best version of yourself, not like someone who had work done.
First, Dr. Kupetz examines your face and discusses your goals. We explain which Juvederm product will work best for your specific concerns and show you exactly where we’ll inject.
The treatment itself takes 15-30 minutes. The injection sites are marked, then the Juvederm gel is carefully placed using fine needles. Each product contains lidocaine, so discomfort is minimal.
You see results immediately, though the final outcome emerges over the next two weeks as any minor swelling subsides. Most people return to work the same day with no one knowing they had anything done.

We offer the full range of Juvederm products, each designed for specific areas and concerns. Voluma XC for cheek and chin volume that lasts up to two years. Vollure XC for nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Volbella XC for subtle lip enhancement and under-eye hollows.
Ultra and Ultra Plus for more dramatic lip augmentation and deeper facial lines. Volux XC for jawline definition and contouring. Each product has different consistencies and longevity, which is why experience matters in choosing the right one.
In Pleasant Valley and throughout Dutchess County, patients appreciate having access to all these options in one location, with a provider who understands which product will give them the results they’re actually looking for.
Juvederm results typically last 9 months to 2 years depending on which product is used and where it’s injected. Voluma XC in the cheeks can last up to 2 years, while Ultra in the lips usually lasts 9-12 months.
Your individual results depend on your metabolism, the area treated, and how your body processes the hyaluronic acid. Dr. Kupetz will give you a realistic timeline during your consultation based on the specific treatment plan we recommend for your goals.
Most patients in Pleasant Valley schedule touch-up appointments before their results completely fade to maintain their look consistently.
Each Juvederm product has a different consistency and is designed for specific areas. Voluma XC is the thickest and best for adding volume to cheeks and chin. Vollure XC is medium consistency for nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
Volbella XC is the softest for delicate areas like lips and under-eyes. Ultra and Ultra Plus are classic formulations for lips and moderate to severe facial lines. Volux XC is the newest, designed specifically for jawline definition.
We often combine different products in one session to address multiple concerns. Our experience helps us choose the right product for each area to achieve natural-looking results that enhance your features.
Juvederm treatments typically range from $600-$1,400 per syringe, depending on which product you choose and how many areas you’re treating. Most patients need 1-2 syringes for their desired results.
The exact cost depends on your individual treatment plan. During your consultation, Dr. Kupetz will examine your face, discuss your goals, and provide a detailed quote based on the specific products and amounts needed.
Many patients find the cost reasonable when they consider how long the results last and the confidence boost they get from looking refreshed and natural.
Juvederm is FDA-approved and has an excellent safety profile when administered by experienced providers like Dr. Kupetz. All Juvederm products are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your body.
The most common side effects are temporary swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites, which typically resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when treatments are performed by qualified professionals.
Dr. Kupetz’s 30+ years of experience with facial anatomy and injection techniques, combined with our conservative approach, minimizes risks and ensures you get safe, natural-looking results.
Yes, Juvederm can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you’re not satisfied with your results. This is one of the major advantages of hyaluronic acid-based fillers over permanent options.
However, with our conservative approach and extensive experience, most patients in Pleasant Valley are very happy with their results. We take time to understand your goals and use techniques that create natural-looking enhancements.
The ability to reverse treatments provides peace of mind, but our track record of satisfied patients means dissolution is rarely necessary in our practice.
Most patients return to normal activities immediately after Juvederm treatments. You might have minor swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites for 1-3 days, but these are usually mild and easily covered with makeup.
Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and alcohol for 24 hours after treatment. Don’t massage the treated areas unless Dr. Kupetz specifically instructs you to do so.
Your final results will be apparent within 2 weeks as any swelling subsides and the product settles naturally. Many Pleasant Valley patients schedule their appointments on Friday afternoons so they have the weekend to let any minor swelling resolve before returning to work.
