Juvéderm in Aguadilla, PR

At Icala Medical Aesthetics in Aguadilla, PR, Dr. Lilliam Díaz-Vélez offers Juvéderm® treatments to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and refine facial contours with precision and artistry. As a skilled oculoplastic surgeon, Dr. Díaz-Vélez combines advanced injection techniques with an eye for natural balance to help patients achieve youthful, graceful enhancement without surgery.

What Juvéderm Treats

Juvéderm is a hyaluronic acid-based filler designed to replenish volume, smooth facial creases, and define the face. This treatment is ideal for patients who want to address signs of aging or enhance facial features without the need for invasive procedures. Common uses include:

  • Restoring fullness in the cheeks and midface
  • Softening nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Softening drooping downward lines at the corners of the mouth (marionette lines)
  • Defining and volumizing the lips
  • Improving the appearance of under-eye hollows
  • Enhancing jawline contour 
  • Improving overall facial symmetry

Because hyaluronic acid naturally exists in the skin, your body accepts and adapts to its presence seamlessly and immediately. Juvéderm integrates smoothly into the tissue, providing subtle lift and hydration while maintaining flexibility and movement.

How Juvéderm Works

Juvéderm uses cross-linked hyaluronic acid molecules to attract and retain moisture within the skin. These molecules can hold up to 1000 times their weight in water, which makes dermal fillers like Juvéderm an ideal way to rapidly replenish volume, define features, and gently sculpt the face where needed.

Dr. Díaz-Vélez administers the filler using specialized injection techniques that ensure even distribution and precise shaping. There are several formulas, each created for different parts of the face. These include:

  • Juvéderm Ultra XC: Adds fullness to thinning lips and smooths moderate to severe lines around the nose and mouth for up to 12 months.
  • Juvéderm Volbella XC: Subtly enhances lip volume, softens fine lines around the mouth, and treats the undereye area with results lasting up to one year.
  • Juvéderm Vollure XC: Smooths moderate to severe facial lines, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines, for up to 18 months.
  • Juvéderm Voluma XC: Restores lost volume in the cheeks and midface, providing lift and contour that can last up to two years.

What to Expect During and After Treatment

Your session begins with a consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals. Dr. Díaz-Vélez and our talented team customize every Juvéderm plan to create balanced, symmetrical enhancement.

The treatment starts with topical numbing (a cream or gel) that makes the needle sticks more comfortable. In addition, Juvéderm formulas have a lidocaine anesthetic built in to make the process as comfortable as possible. You might feel some pressure and temporary discomfort, but most patients tolerate treatment very well. 

Most appointments take 30-45 minutes, and results are visible immediately. Mild swelling or redness may occur but typically resolves within a day or two.

Dr. Díaz-Vélez and our team provide detailed post-treatment guidance to help maintain results, such as avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and facial pressure for the first day. Follow-up treatments are scheduled as needed to preserve long-term smoothness and definition.

What To Avoid After Juvéderm

After Juvéderm treatment, it’s important to avoid certain activities that may interfere with your results. The following precautions can help minimize swelling and ensure the filler settles properly:

  • Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours
  • Avoid excessive heat, including saunas and direct sun exposure
  • Avoid alcohol consumption for the first day
  • Avoid touching, massaging, or applying pressure to treated areas

Following these guidelines supports smooth, natural-looking results and helps reduce the risk of irritation or uneven settling.
