Juvederm Voluma is a relatively new, yet already incredibly popular filler in the Juvederm product family. It has a huge number of fans, who have already replaced the missing volume and recreated a natural, young face.
Despite the army of fans, there are many people, who have not undergone aesthetic treatments yet. They have a lot of questions related to Juvederm Voluma.
Hi everyone, I’m Anna, the founder of this beauty supply store. And today I will save your time and answer all the questions about this dermal filler!
Read my new article about Juvederm Voluma. Spend 5 minutes of your precious time in a useful way. Today, I am delighted to reveal top 10 things you need to know about Juvederm Voluma, so you understand what it is, what it does and how it can help you restore volume, vitality and softness of your face.
1. WHAT IS JUVEDERM VOLUMA?
Juvederm Voluma is a dermal filler that has become an integral part of anti-aging aesthetic medicine. Why? Because it contains ultrapure superstar ingredient –hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan).
Hyaluronic acid has a well-deserved reputation of the best anti-aging tool, even though other notable skincare products have appeared and disappeared over decades. The magic of this ingredient is its incredible ability to rejuvenate all types of skin.
2. HYALURONIC ACID & ITS CONNECTION TO SIGNS OF AGING
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is not only the main ingredient of Juvederm Voluma, but also a substance, which is always present in our bodies. This type of molecule is partially composed of sugars, so it disintegrates under the forces of nature. The older we get, the faster this happens.
It’s fair to say that aging leads to increased dryness, fine lines, wrinkles and sagging (sob!). The truth is, however, that the main age-related changes on the face are associated with the decrease in the ability to produce HA. Think it over.
3. HOW DOES JUVEDERM VOLUMA WORK?
Our bodies contain about 15 grams of our own anti-aging HA, the amount of which decreases with time. Juvederm Voluma contains 20 mg of HA in every milliliter of solution. Therefore, the filler is able to retain a large amount of moisture, so that the skin is plumped, glowing and soft.
Thanks to its moisture retention ability, Juvederm Voluma is an amazing substance, which erases years from your face. It gently fills lines, wrinkles and depressions, blends into the natural structure of your skin and becomes a part of it.
4. TARGET AREAS FOR JUVEDERM VOLUMA
Your aesthetic medicine specialist can use Juvederm Voluma for the treatment of the following areas:
- Cheeks, including upper cheeks and mid cheek
- Jowls. There is no need to inject filler into this area, yet it can be lifted by upper and mid face injections.
In addition to correcting loss of volume in the middle of the face, Juvederm Voluma also improves facial contours and reduces wrinkles.
5. AREAS NOT SUITABLE FOR TREATMENT
Mid-face is a complicated area for treatment, which explains the thick texture of Juvederm Voluma gel. To let your dreams come true, use dermal fillers only for those areas, for which they are intended.
Here is the list of places, where Juvederm Voluma should not be used:
- Lips
- Around the mouth
- Under the eyes.
These areas require a thinner, more malleable gel to smoothly integrate into the contour of your face. Such fillers exist within Juvederm family, and they are all available for sale on Anna’s Cosmetics.
6. PROCEDURE FOR JUVEDERM VOLUMA
Juvederm Voluma administration is a pretty simple cosmetic procedure. Each injection is made with a syringe in the mid-face region. The gel contains lidocaine, local anesthetic, so the treatment is painless and comfortable.
The injections take only a few minutes at a time, and provide amazingly good results. Depending on the area of the treated zone and the amount of gel injected, the entire treatment, together with pre-treatment and post-treatment procedures, may take 20 to 40 minutes.
That’s all. You can go home or get back to work. No lifestyle changes are required.
7. HOW SOON THE RESULTS BECOME VISIBLE?
Believe it or not, Juvederm Voluma is instant and long lasting. Have the treatment done, take a look in the mirror and see it yourself!
It is worth saying that the final effect usually becomes noticeable within a few days or weeks after the treatment.
8. HOW LONG DOES JUVEDERM VOLUMA LAST?
This is one of the most frequent questions asked by my existing and potential customers, and it is not surprising. After all, not only facial rejuvenation is of great concern, but duration of the results as well.
Here is the best part! Under normal circumstances, Juvederm Voluma dermal filler can work up to two years! It’s obvious that “normal circumstances” is a vague concept. However, it is safe to say that it lasts longer than other types of fillers, including when compared to the other members of Juvederm family.
9. THE MORE, THE BETTER
When it comes to beauty and youth of your face, the more is no longer equal to the better. Overfilling is one of the problems that is increasingly common among fans of facial fillers. Many aesthetic practitioners start talking about fillers being “addictive”.
In my opinion, any aesthetic treatment has a critical point. When it is reached and passed, there comes a moment when you begin looking worse than you did before the very first injection.
10. ARE THERE ANY RISKS OR SIDE EFFECTS?
In the end, I would like to touch on a very important aspect – the side effects of this dermal filler. After all, Juvederm Voluma does not magically fall under the skin. Doctors need to use needles to introduce it. In addition, the gel fills the missing volume and inevitably gets in contact with your cells, even though the action is rather gentle.
Mild and common side effects include temporary swelling, redness and bruising. More severe and unusual side effects are infections. They occur when doctors use needles that are not included in Juvederm Voluma kit, or when the skin is not cleansed properly before and after the treatment.
BOTTOM LINE
Each of us deserves best things in life and one of them is Juvederm Voluma.
Yes, it is not a five-dollar cream. But beauty requires sacrifice, so stay positive and consider the money spent as an investment in your face, health and confidence.
Thanks for taking the time to read my article! I hope it helps you stay beautiful and ageless!
