HOUSTON, TX, May 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) Of the many fillers used to restore a youthful appearance, Juvederm ranks at the top of the list for many of the country's top cosmetic surgeons. So, why this product when there are so many fillers on the market? While the others are as effective as they ever were, Juvederm ups the ante significantly.
About Juvederm
Juvederm is made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar that occurs naturally in human tissues. HA is believed to play a role in healing, especially of the skin. HA binds with water to produce a plumping effect, up to 1,000 times its volume. HA helps skin absorb and retain moisture and nutrients. This is especially beneficial to aging skin because with age comes the loss of retention.
Juvederm is a Favorite Choice
Juvederm is favored by plastic surgeons over other formulations and fillers for several reasons.
Juvederm :
- Comes in four concentrations of gel making it more versatile than other formulations. Higher concentrations can be used for treating deeper skin folds. Lower concentrations are ideal for fine or medium lines or wrinkles.
- Gel is absorbed more slowly than other brands and formulations so it lasts longer, up to one year.
- Is a smooth gel that requires smaller needles and less pressure to inject. This means less discomfort for you.
- Treatments can be completed in 30 minutes or less.
- Results are immediate.
- Requires no recovery time, so you can return to your usual routine immediately.
- Can be used in combination with BOTOX for deeper wrinkles and even furrows that occur, commonly, in the forehead.
- Is effective with any skin type.
- Often gives great results when other fillers have failed.
Candidates for Juvederm
Juvederm treats wrinkles and creases that develop from repeated muscle movements around your mouth, nose or forehead. Juvederm can be used as a filler for lip augmentation, as filler for facial contouring, and to improve scars-especially those caused by acne.
Results are long-lasting but temporary. If you don't like the results, HA is eventually absorbed by your system. But if you do like the results, you can enjoy them longer because Juvederm treatments last from six months to as long a one year.
Side Effects are Minimal
Juvederm's few side effects are more advantageous than it might appear. Although you might experience some redness and tenderness around the injection sites, bear in mind that HA is a component of the natural healing process, which produces inflammation wherever the skin is broken. Inflammation is a positive indication of healing, and it will clear up within hours to a couple days.
Juvederm is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breast feeding, for treating areas with loose or very thin skin or for treating enlarged scars.

How Much Of A Problem Is Distracted Driving?
2011-05-15
A recent USA Today article discusses the question of distracted driving and the recent publicity campaign by the Department of Transportation (DOT), including the personal presence of Secretary Ray LaHood.

New Motorcycle Safety Technology for Motorists Could Help Prevent Accidents
2011-05-15
When cars and cycles collide, the motorcyclist is most at risk of serious injuries. There is so little protection, there on the bike, whereas the drivers of cars are encased in steel.
Now, new technology may be able to warn passenger car drivers when they are within a "threat range" of a motorcycle. Guiseppe Pino Mileto, an inventor based in Toronto, has announced plans for a transmitter/receiver device called the Motorcycle Warning System. It could potentially reduce accidents significantly by making passenger vehicles more aware of motorcycles.
Why a Warning ...

If charged with and convicted of state or federal crimes, college students could face serious legal consequences that may limit their future potential. While college students may be capable and intelligent enough to handle many difficult situations, they need the help and support of their parents and an experienced criminal defense attorney to minimize the impact of criminal charges.

Educating heart patients, families cut one hospital's falls by 64 percent
2011-05-15
Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center had noticed that, despite a hospital-wide program to prevent patient falls, the cardiovascular progressive care unit experienced an increase in the rate of patient falls. To address the problem, investigators reviewed current literature about fall prevention and designed an education program. Using some basic guidelines from Ryu, Roche, and Brunton (2009), the program incorporated education for patients as well as families and included a booklet and a poster for each patient room.
In the two months before the program ...
Primary stroke centers more likely to be in states with certification programs
2011-05-15
Searching public databases in 2010, researchers looked at the distribution of primary stroke centers, designated such by state health departments or national organizations (such as The Joint Commission in collaboration with the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association). They found that 24 percent of acute general hospitals are certified stroke centers.
Notably, in the eight states that have a state-based program that designates such hospitals, the percentage (63 percent) of certified stroke centers was higher than in states that don't (13 percent).

Artificial Hip Failures Increasingly Common, Lead to Recall
2011-05-15
Hip replacement surgery has become a fairly common procedure in the U.S., with more than 193,000 total hip replacement procedures performed annually. Well-known people ranging from 41st president George Bush to rocker Eddie Van Halen have had the surgery, and continue to lead successful lives.
