Voluma Q & A
What is Voluma?
Juvederm is the newest member of the Juvederm family of dermal fillers. This filler is specially formulated for use in the mid-face area, typically for adding volume to the cheeks. At this time, Voluma is approved only for use in the middle of the face, so people who want volume in areas like the lips can opt for other fillers in the Juvederm family.
Who is a good vandidate for Voluma?
People who suffer from reduced volume due to aging may be ideal candidates for Juvederm Voluma XC. It is natural to lose collagen and hyaluronic acid within the body over time, and one of the areas where this loss is most obvious tends to be the cheeks. Some people may also have a sunken look in their cheeks due to weight loss, or simply due to the natural structure of their face. Anyone who wants to flesh out the cheek area of their face, making it look younger and more revitalized, can be a good candidate for Juvederm Voluma XC.
How long does Voluma last?
Juvederm Voluma XC typically lasts for 9 to 12 months in the cheek area, but it could last as long as 2 years in some patients. This makes Juvederm Voluma XC the hyaluronic acid dermal filler with the most potential longevity.
What is recovery like after Voluma injections?
Recovery is extremely easy and fast for the majority of patients. There is no downtime required, and patients can even return to work right away after the treatment if they desire. It's normal to have mild swelling for a day or two following treatment with Juvederm Voluma XC, but this will resolve very quickly. Some people may have tiny red marks at the injection sites for a few days after treatment, but this is easily covered with concealer if desired.
