Sun exposure, hormonal changes, and aging all have an impact on your skin's appearance. Over time, your skin begins to lose hyaluronic acid and collagen, resulting in fine line, wrinkles and a loss of fullness and elasticity. Dr. Shenker and his professional nursing staff at The Cosmetic Surgery Clinic use JUVÉDERM® injections in Kitchener-Waterloo to help people from Guelph, London, Windsor, and Cambridge address these signs of aging by diminishing wrinkles and folds by adding volume to sunken skin.

Learn MoreJUVÉDERM® dermal filler is a soft, replenishing, injectable gel made from hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring sugar found in your body. It works by giving volume to your skin to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and thinning skin. It also works to enhance and define lips, cheeks, and jaw line. Hyaluronic acid injections have been shown to stimulate collagen production. Best of all, the results are instant, natural looking, there is no down time, and JUVÉDERM® dermal filler has been demonstrated to be safe for all skin tones.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a complex sugar found in all living cells and an important component of the skin, along with collagen and elastin. HA retains water like a sponge, absorbing more than 1,000 times its weight. This helps to attract and maintain water, hydrate your skin, and increase its volume and density.
JUVÉDERM® dermal filler is injected directly into the skin using a fine needle to reduce injection discomfort. The smooth consistency gel of JUVÉDERM® dermal filler allows it to be administered easily and smoothly. Bruising, tenderness and swelling are possible following JUVÉDERM® dermal filler injections but subside quickly. While improvement may be seen immediately, full results typically become visible over the 2 weeks following treatment and enhance further over the following 6 to 8 weeks; however, experiences vary.
