AUSTIN JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC TREATMENTS

CHOOSE VOLUMA® FOR YOUTHFUL FACIAL CONTOURS austin juvederm filler model

One of the key indicators of beauty is healthy skin and the presence of youthful volume. In our younger years, our faces are rounder and fuller due to normal facial fat. As the years pass however, this facial fat and collagen begins to diminish, causing the face to take on a gaunt, hollowed-out appearance. This causes facial tissues to begin to migrate south and as the skin loses tautness, lines and wrinkles begin to emerge.

The good news is that you have a say in how gracefully you age, and with advanced fillers like JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC, you can achieve youthful fullness and contour to the face with natural-looking results. VOLUMA® restores volume back to the cheeks to give the mid-face a subtle lift and produce a more youthful shape. The result is a smoother facial contour and a more refreshed and vibrant look.

WHAT IS JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC?

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC is the newest hyaluronic acid soft tissue filler by Allergan (the makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic). It is the first and only FDA-approved injectable gel that provides immediate results for re-volumizing the cheek area.

VOLUMA® is from the Juvederm® family of fillers and is scientifically designed to treat large-scale volume loss. This particular filler has proven to be very effective in restoring age-related volume loss in the cheeks, cheekbones and the chin area.

Much like its predecessor, JUVÉDERM® XC, VOLUMA® contains hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring element in human connective tissue. HA is responsible for capturing water, in turn providing the skin with a plump, smooth and hydrated appearance.

An HA molecule is capable of holding up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, making its presence vital to providing support and volume to the skin. As we get older, this vital structural component begins to decline. The depletion of HA causes the skin to become dehydrated, lose its elasticity, and accentuate lines and wrinkles.

VOLUMA® works to restore volume and plump up the skin by replenishing lost hyaluronic acid. Its highly unique formulation allows it to be deeply injected into hollow regions of the face with an ultra fine needle. Once injected, the HA in VOLUMA® binds and absorbs water, creating a subtle lifting and giving the skin a plump, hydrated look.

What distinguishes VOLUMA® from other soft tissue fillers is the unique cross-linking process used in its formulation called VYCROSS™. This special cross-linking also helps decrease the rate of degradation, effectively improving the HA’s persistence at the injection site. In other words, VOLUMA® results are long-lasting. In fact, treatment with this filler can provide patients with a subtle lift and voluminous contour for up to two years with optimal treatment.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR VOLUMA®?

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC restores volume back to the cheeks to give the mid-face a subtle lift and produce a more youthful shape.
