Q: What is Elevess™?
A: Elevess™ is the first FDA-approved injectable hyaluronic acid-based wrinkle filler that contains the anesthetic lidocaine for easier, more comfortable correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as smile lines. After just one in-office treatment, you’ll enjoy the renewed smoothness in your skin that makes you feel good and look great.
Q: What is hyaluronic acid?
A: Hyaluronic acid is a sugar that is a naturally occurring component of healthy and hydrated skin. It functions as a framework to hold together collagen and elastin. When injected into the skin in a gel form, hyaluronic acid attracts water and provides volume to easily fill your creases and folds, such as smile lines.
Q: How does Elevess™ work?
A: Elevess™ is a soft gel that your doctor quickly and precisely injects into the wrinkles of the skin. The hyaluronic acid in Elevess™ immediately adds a natural fullness that smoothes and corrects unwanted wrinkles and folds.
Q: Does the treatment hurt?
A: Elevess™ is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid wrinkle filler that contains lidocaine, an anesthetic which makes the treatment experience easier and more comfortable than other dermal fillers. Lidocaine often eliminates the inconvenience of a nerve block during the procedure.
Q: How is Elevess™ different from other fillers?
A: Elevess provides the same rejuvenating benefits as other hyaluronic acid-based wrinkle fillers, but with an easier, more comfortable injection experience. In addition, as a long-lasting, affordable treatment option, Elevess offers you a new way to get more from your wrinkle filler than ever before.
Important Treatment Considerations for Patients*
Elevess is indicated to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds). It is injected directly into the skin. Extensive pre-approval clinical studies demonstrated the safety and efficacy of Elevess. Some bruising, swelling, redness, tenderness, itching and nodule (small bumps) formation were recorded in clinical trials and may occur after injection. This will normally last less than seven days. Until the initial bruising and swelling is resolved, exposure to sun or other UV sources and extreme cold should be minimized.
In rare circumstances, other complications could occur (refer to product labeling for complete warnings and precautions information). More prominent bruising and bleeding may occur with people who are taking anti-coagulant drugs (blood thinners). The safety of Elevess for pregnant and nursing women has not been investigated. Elevess should be used with caution in people undergoing immunosuppressive therapy. Subsequent laser treatment, chemical peeling or other dermal procedures may cause a possible risk of inflammatory response at the injection site. This also applies if Elevess is administered before the skin has healed after such procedures. The use of Elevess should be postponed in the case of certain inflammatory skin disorders, such as skin sores, rashes, cysts, hives or infection at the injection site.
Elevess is composed of cross-linked hyaluronic acid and lidocaine, and contains sodium metabisulfite as an antioxidant. Although rare, sulfites may cause an allergic reaction in sensitive individuals. It may contain trace amounts of gram positive bacterial proteins. Elevess should not be used in patients with a history of allergies to such material. Elevess should not be used in patients with severe allergies manifested by a history of anaphylaxis or a history or presence of multiple severe allergies.
