Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Juvederm is a medication that can be purchased over the counter and used to treat wrinkles, face lines, and skin folds. It is administered via injection and can also be used to augment lips. The active ingredient, Hyaluronic Acid, helps to hold water at the injection site, resulting in smoother and more voluminous skin. It's important to note that the effects of Juvederm are temporary, and users may need to get another injection within 9-12 months of the initial one.

If you are thinking about getting Juvederm injections, it is important to understand that only a trained cosmetic medical professional should administer them. These injections are designed to be injected into the mid-to-deep dermis layer of the face, and it is not advisable to try to administer them on your own.
When getting Juvederm gel injections, be sure to avoid injecting into blood vessels due to the risk of blockage. You may experience temporary discomfort or stinging pain during the injection. Injection may cause swelling, although this is not a cause for concern. For relief you can place an ice pack or cold compress over the injection site.
If you have a history of severe allergies or anaphylaxis or have excessive scarring or skin pigmentation disorders, it's best to consult a doctor or dermatologist before purchasing Juvederm online.
After the injection, avoid extended sun or heat exposure, strenuous exercise, or alcohol consumption for 24 hours. Women should refrain from applying makeup to their faces for several days, up to a week.
Although there are currently no known major drug interactions between Hyaluronic Acid and prescription medications, it is still advisable to consult with the dispensing pharmacist before purchasing Juvederm if you have any concerns about the medications you are taking.
Juvederm side effects are a possibility, and some users may have redness, pain or tenderness, firmness, swelling, lumps or bruises, itching, or discoloration. If any of these side effects are seen, you may want to discontinue use and speak with a dermatologist about skin wrinkle reduction treatment options.
