Dr. Mary Lupo is an experienced, board certified dermatologist available to patients in the New Orleans area and offers medical and aesthetic dermatology solutions for healthy, youthful looking skin. Using some of the latest techniques and applications, she is able to provide her patients with an innovative wide range of options for turning back the hands of time. Many patients enjoy using dermal fillers to address fine lines, wrinkles, and folds that make them look older than they truly feel. One of the more popular fillers used in her practice is Juvéderm.
Juvéderm is a common choice for patients combating the signs of aging because it is safe, effective, affordable, and can provide long-term results. Juvéderm is an FDA-approved injectable for cosmetic use and is formulated with hyaluronic acid. In 2004, Dr. Lupo was part of the clinical trial for FDA approval of Juvederm. Hyaluronic acid is known for lubricating the areas in which it is injected because it attracts water molecules. This means that when it is injected directly in lines and wrinkles, it can reduce their depth and make them far less noticeable. It can even out the texture of the skin and provide many months of beautiful, natural-looking results.
Dr. Mary Lupo and her team of professionals at the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology use Juvéderm treatment for patients who are interested in rejuvenating their appearance. When injected into the marionette lines, laugh lines, and other areas of the face, it can immediately enhance one's appearance. Patients who have injectable fillers used on their face will look well rested, youthful, and more attractive. The injectable is naturally absorbed by the skin over the course of many months, so periodic injections are necessary to maintain the results. Regular Juvéderm treatments can successfully slow the signs of aging over the years and allow patients to feel more confident with the way they look.
