Harnessing the power of plant-derived scaffolding, Spiderwort has developed an injectable formulated to offer medical aesthetics professionals and their clients greater control, minimized adverse events, and longer-lasting results than other conventional fillers. With its distinct viscoelastic properties, CelluJuve® is designed to offer a natural feel, closely resembling the body’s native tissue environment.

CelluJuve® is differentiated from the market and looks to pioneer the future of medical aesthetics with the first cellulose-derived dermal filler. This mission is reinforced by recent recognition for its cutting-edge approach at the Octane Medical Aesthetics Forum earlier this year.

“By bringing together this elite group of medical aesthetics professionals, we are not only amplifying Spiderwort’s commitment to excellence but also ensuring CelluJuve remains at the forefront of aesthetic innovation,” commented Dr. Charles M. Cuerrier, CEO and Co-founder of Spiderwort. “We look forward to working closely with the Clinical Advisory Board as we introduce this next evolution in dermal fillers and regenerative medicine.”
