A Top-Tier Volume Enhancer

Juvéderm is a versatile dermal filler Dr. Elizabeth Chance loves using for cheek, lip, and jawline contouring at her C + Co Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics in Charlottesville, Virginia. The secret to success with dermal fillers is a skilled practitioner who knows how much filler to use and where to place it. Juvéderm has a whole suite of products, each designed to remedy a specific concern.

What Is Juvéderm?

Juvéderm is one of the best quality dermal fillers on the market. A smooth viscous gel that is injected under the skin, Juvederm produces immediate results and can last for up to a year. Juvéderm is one of many hyaluronic acid fillers on the market. This type of filler is easy to mold and has a natural look and feel.

Hyaluronic acid is actually produced by the body already, which means adverse reactions are uncommon. One of the best parts of fillers like Juvederm is that they are easily reversible.

How Does It Work?

Juvéderm is injected deep or right under the skin to provide volume to the face using a needle or cannula. Typically patients do not experience any discomfort greater than a pinch or a slight tingling sensation, because Juvéderm contains the numbing agent lidocaine. We recommend and prescribe topical numbing agents for increased comfort.

Though it may look simple, years of training and an exhaustive knowledge of facial anatomy are required for natural results that seamlessly enhance rather than overpower the face. Dermal fillers that are applied by an expert will result in natural, beautiful results.

Is Juvéderm Right for Me?

At Chance + Co Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics, we often recommend Juvéderm because it’s versatile, effective, and delivers natural-looking results. This hyaluronic acid-based filler is ideal for those looking to restore volume, lift the midface, and maintain a soft, youthful contour—without surgery. It can also be skillfully used to sculpt the lips, define the jawline and chin, and even soften the appearance of hollows under the eyes or around the forehead.

The benefits of juvéderm in Charlottesville include:

  • Non-surgical and minimally invasive – Quick in-office treatment with little to no downtime
  • Immediate results – Enjoy visible improvement right after your appointment
  • Long-lasting effects – Results can last 6 to 18 months, depending on the area treated and product used
  • Reversible if needed – Can be dissolved with hyaluronidase for added peace of mind

  • Customizable for multiple areas – Effective for cheeks, lips, chin, jawline, and under-eye hollows

Recovery From Juvéderm

Below are some side effects that are normal but short-lived:

  • Itching

Words from our patients

Reviews media

Dr. Chance is a joy. I adore people who are amazing at their job but don’t take themselves too seriously. I went to her to smatter Botox and filler all over my face and little did I know she would change my life. I happened to mention that I clench my jaw and she suggested injecting Botox into my masseter muscles. Within a week, the chronic pain that I had suffered with in my jaw, neck, back, and hip for YEARS had disappeared. Please take all my money and don’t ever leave.

Not only is Dr. Chance an incredible surgeon, she is humble, kind, and compassionate. Truly, one of a kind!!!! She delivers natural looking results. Subtle facial rejuvenation, yet so impactful. The entire Chance + Co team is incredible. And their new office is stunning. Warm, elegant, inviting.. white-glove experience!

- Rachel C.

I have been blessed to be a patient of Dr. Chance and Kimmy for the past 5 years. I trust her sense of aesthetics and skillfulness as a surgeon completely. There have been times when I wanted more and she gently steered me to less, and times when she knew what I desired and helped me achieve it through surgery. I think because she pours so much of her own heart into her work, the result is always beautiful.

- Ashley.

Have been a patient of Dr Chance for over ten years—some Botox, a little filler, and recently did my upper eyelids. Am thrilled with the results! Have never felt overdone or unlike myself, which is important to me. Kimmy is always super helpful and kind. I’ve seen the major work she has done on friends and my own mother—Elizabeth Chance is a gifted surgeon.
