Question: I have been informed that there is a form a Juvederm that has been formulated with Lidocaine. Are Juvederm injections so painful that they would need this addition, and would it actually minimize pain?
Answer: Juvederm XC has lidocaine. It makes the injection more comfortable but technique is much more important in determining not only comfort but also swelling and bruising after Juvederm injections, with or without lidocaine.
