Juvéderm®Voluma
What makes Juvéderm Voluma XC different?
While other dermal fillers are used primarily to fill in lines and plump only surface areas like the lips, Juvéderm Voluma is the first and only product that was specifically developed to add volume underneath the skin. Because it is used subdermally, Juvéderm Voluma plumps from below, adding firmness and fullness back to the cheeks, chin and jaw.
A cousin of Juvéderm Ultra and Ultra Plus , the Voluma product was created with different technology that allows it to actually lift and volumize skin while also lasting longer than other injectable products.
Although Voluma is different from other dermal fillers, it was not intended to replace them. Voluma has a job separate from other products like Juvéderm Ultra and Ultra Plus . While Voluma volumizes and plumps, Juvéderm Ultra and Ultra Plus fill lines and wrinkles. Used together, these two types of dermal products create a dramatic difference.

Consider Blood Thinners
To minimize the likelihood of bruising, the use of blood thinning medications and supplements should be discontinued for 2 weeks before your treatment.
Decrease Alcohol
Avoiding alcohol the evening before your BOTOX treatment and for 4 hours after your treatment will also minimize your chances of bruising.
Avoid Invasive Procedures
Invasive procedures should be avoided before and after your filler appointment to avoid infection. Please avoid any of these for 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after treatment.
Be Healthy
Filler treatments may not be performed if you have an active infection or illness or are being treated for one. All prescribed antibiotics must be completed 2 weeks prior to treatment and any infections or illnesses must be completely resolved before you can safely get Filler.
History of Cold Sores
If you have a history of facial cold sores, please notify us in advance so that we may provide you with a prescription for antiviral medication to start before your treatment.
Remove Makeup and Creams
Please come to your appointment with a clean face – remove all makeup, creams and lotions.
Side Effects
Tenderness and swelling at the injection site after the treatment are common and should resolve within 24-48 hours. Bruising is also common and should resolve within 7-10 days.
Apply Ice
Ice may be applied to the area after Juvéderm Ultra/Ultra Plus/Volbella/Vollure/Volux treatment to help reduce swelling. Ice should not be applied to the area after Juvederm Voluma injections to avoid infection.
Keep Area Clean
Keep the treated area clean and do not apply makeup to the area for 24 hours following your treatment. Refrain from touching your face or allowing anything unclean to come in contact with your face.
Gentle Cleansers
For 48 hours post treatment, use only gentle cleansers, and apply gentle pressure when cleansing the treated area – do not use cleaning tools (i.e., Clarisonic) or facial scrubs on the area.
Avoid Heat / Exercise
For 24 hours after your treatment, avoid straining, heavy lifting, vigorous exercise and all forms of heat such as hot tubs, saunas, sun exposure and tanning beds.
Results
Filler results can last from 8 to 24 months, depending on the type and amount of Filler injected. To maintain best results, the area should be retreated as recommended by your provider and/or as soon as you notice lines and wrinkles are starting to reappear in the treated area.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long will Juvéderm Voluma XC last?
Results from a Juvéderm Voluma treatment are immediate, and typically only one treatment is needed for optimal results. Clinical studies have shown Juvéderm Voluma to last as long as two years before maintenance was needed, however, you can probably expect it to last between 12 and 18 months.
Who should get Juvéderm Voluma XC?
Juvéderm Voluma is an ideal solution to facial volume loss. Hollowness, drooping and sagging caused by age or weight loss as well as facial asymmetry can all be corrected with a Juvéderm Voluma treatment.
Does Juvéderm Voluma XC Hurt?
During treatment, patients will feel an initial prick, but Juvéderm Voluma contains a small amount of lidocaine, which should diminish discomfort. A topical anesthetic can be applied to the injection area before treatment begins to offer additional relief.
What is the best way to prepare for a Juvéderm Voluma XC treatment?
Before a Juvéderm Voluma treatment, avoid any medications that can prolong bleeding (aspirin, NSAIDs and Fish Oil) for at least a week. This will help reduce the risk of bruising and bleeding at the injection site.
Will a Juvéderm Voluma XC Treatment Make Me Look Fake or Unnatural?
Juvéderm Voluma imparts a very natural look. It’s made from hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that occurs naturally in your body. Your face will still have complete movement, and the change will be subtle. Friends and coworkers will probably mention that you look great and think you’ve been sleeping better.
Is there any downtime with Juvéderm Voluma XC?
There is little to no downtime with a Juvéderm Voluma treatment, and you can resume normal activity immediately. It’s best to avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol and sun exposure for 24 hours after treatment. You may experience tenderness, swelling, lumps or bumps, bruising, redness or itching at the site of injection, but all symptoms are mild to moderate and will clear up within one to four weeks.
