Aging causes our skin to lose its natural volume and elasticity, causing sagging and fine lines to form. Dermal filler injections can return the lost volume and restore the smooth youthful appearance of your skin without surgical intervention and affecting facial movement.
What is Juvederm Voluma®?
Juvederm Voluma®is a type of injectable filler, which was formulated specifically for adding volume and lifting larger areas of the face, such as cheeks and jawline. This filler was formulated, using hyaluronic acid, a complex sugar naturally found in your skin and widely utilized by the cosmetic industry. Juvederm Voluma®has a gel-like consistency, which stops it from spreading and slowing down the absorption rate, restoring the volume and ensuring natural and long-lasting results.
The treatment can cause some discomfort around the injection site and can be performed with topical numbing ointments. Patients may experience redness, some swelling, and minor bruising, which usually subside after 14 days. We recommend staying away from consuming alcohol for 24 hours and taking anti-inflammatory drugs 4 to 5 days before the procedure.
Benefits include:
-
Significant reduction of fine lines and deep wrinkles
-
Revolumizing of cheeks
-
Correction of jowls and nasolabial folds
How long do the results last?
It is important to remember that Juvederm Voluma®injections provide a temporary solution because the filler is gradually absorbed by the body. The effect from the procedure can last up to 2 years with optimal treatment.
Aftercare:
• Avoid intense exercise after the treatment as it can intensify the swelling a bruising
• Avoid excessive heat, such as hot baths and saunas
• Wear full spectrum SPF and try to stay away from direct sunlight
• We recommend not wearing makeup for at least 24 to 48 hours after the procedure
