Juvéderm may be non-surgical, but placement still takes skill, which is why it’s important to choose someone with medical training. Dr. David Bogue is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Boca Raton with years of experience in cosmetic procedures. He and his team will walk you through exactly when to schedule your treatment at his office in Boca Raton, Florida – but here’s an idea of what to expect.
Give Your Skin Time to Settle
If you’ve got an event coming up, be sure to schedule your appointment with enough time for everything to settle. Juvéderm does add volume and smooth lines right away, but it’s not a true “walk out the door ready” treatment.
Swelling typically takes one to two weeks to go down, and it can also take that long for the product to fully appear. Some people also experience mild bruising, especially around the lips or under the eyes.
To play it safe, we usually recommend scheduling your appointment at least three to four weeks before your event. This gives you time to heal, see your results, and schedule a quick touch-up if needed.
Your Juvéderm treatment can last six to 12 months, so you can also choose to get it done several months before your event if you want.
Timeline Tips Based on the Event
Here’s a general idea of how early you should plan:
- Weddings or bridal portraits: Book at least four weeks ahead
- Vacations or weekend getaways: Two to three weeks ahead
- Reunions, parties, or photo shoots: Two to four weeks ahead
Last-minute injections can be tempting, but it’s best not to cut it too close.
