Juvederm Ultra and Juvederm Ultra Plus are both hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, but they differ in terms of their consistency, intended use, and areas of treatment. Here's a comparison of the two:

1. Consistency and Viscosity:

• Juvederm Ultra: Has a smoother, softer consistency. It's designed for more delicate, superficial areas where you want a natural look and feel.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus: Has a thicker, more robust consistency. It's more viscous and designed for deeper wrinkles or areas that require more volume and lifting.

2. Treatment Areas:

• Juvederm Ultra: Primarily used for fine lines and wrinkles in areas like the lips and around the mouth. It's often used for lip augmentation (enhancing lip volume or definition) and mild wrinkles or folds.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus: Typically used for deeper folds and wrinkles, such as the nasolabial folds (smile lines) or marionette lines. It’s also used for facial volume restoration.

3. Results:

• Juvederm Ultra: Results tend to be a bit more subtle due to its softer texture, and it’s usually used for more moderate correction.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus: Provides more noticeable and longer-lasting results due to its thicker consistency. It’s ideal for individuals who need more significant volume or deeper wrinkle correction.

4. Longevity:

• Both products are designed to last around 6 to 12 months depending on the area treated, individual factors, and the type of correction needed.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus may last slightly longer in some cases due to its thicker consistency and ability to provide more structure to the skin.

5. Treatment Depth:

• Juvederm Ultra is injected into more superficial layers of the skin.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus is injected into deeper layers for more significant volume restoration.

6. Ideal Candidates:

• Juvederm Ultra is best suited for people looking for subtle enhancements or those who are new to dermal fillers.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus is often recommended for individuals who need more substantial volume restoration or have deeper lines and folds.

Summary:

• Juvederm Ultra is more for fine lines and subtle volume enhancement, especially in areas like the lips or superficial wrinkles.
• Juvederm Ultra Plus is thicker and designed for deeper wrinkles, folds, or volume loss in the face.

Your choice between the two depends on the specific areas you want to treat and the level of correction required. Consulting with one of our aesthetic professionals can help determine which filler is best suited to your goals.
