The Hyaluronic acid in Juvederm is a natural substance found in your body. High concentrations are found in soft connective tissues and in the fluid surrounding your eyes. It's also in some cartilage and joint fluids, as well as skin tissue. It is extracted and reformulated and now has become one of the most popular kinds of injectable fillers. If the term sounds familiar, it's because the same substance is often injected into the aching joints of people with arthritis to ease pain and provide extra cushioning.

Restylane works by placing volume underneath your skin where you’ve lost collagen and other tissue. This helps smooth out and lift skin, making it look plumper. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane clings to your skin and the water in the acid provides volume. The acid also attracts more water, helping to preserve the recently added volume.

RHA:
RHA fillers are the latest advancement in HA filler technology. RHA fillers are used for nasolabial dynamic wrinkles and folds in adults 22 or older. The RHA Collection uses an innovative and gentle manufacturing process to create a soft and long-lasting injectable gel. This process preserves the natural structure of the HA so it more closely mimics the hyaluronic acid in your own skin. That similarity reduces the unnatural look that many fillers can create. The RHA Collection consists of three approved formulas: RHA 2, RHA 3, and RHA 4. During your consultation for RHA Fillers, Vive Aesthetics and Wellness will meet with you to determine the best formula to suit your needs.
