Elevate your profile with long-lasting volume

Voluma™ XC is the first hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that has received FDA approval to instantly add volume to the all three areas of the cheek (apex, apple, hollow). Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a hydrating substance found naturally in the body with the ability to restore lost water and volume to the skin. HA levels decrease as part of the normal aging process, causing the skin to lose volume and firmness, and potentially leading to a gaunt, aged, or tired appearance. By replenishing depleted HA levels, Voluma™ enhances facial volume, giving the facial contours a subtle, rejuvenating lift, and creating a more youthful profile for up to two years.

Manufactured by Allergan, Voluma™ is infused with lidocaine in order to minimize patient discomfort during and after treatment. Voluma™ is both safe and effective for use in persons of all races and ethnicities, without risk of hyperpigmentation or hypertrophic scarring.

    Combined Treatments

    Complementary cosmetic skin treatments (ie. microdermabrasion, chemical peels) can be performed in conjunction with your Voluma™ injections to maximize and accentuate your results.

    Voluma™ works particularly well as a supplement to Botox® injections, because each injectable is designed to address and correct a different type of wrinkle, and when used together, patients can achieve a remarkable overall facial rejuvenation.

    Your Voluma™ Treatment

    Your Voluma™ treatment will be performed on an outpatient basis, and generally takes no longer than 15 minutes, after which you will notice immediate enhancements in the appearance of your skin.
    • Following your treatment, you may resume your normal daily activities
    • You will be advised to avoid strenuous exercise, consumption of alcoholic beverages, and exposure to sun or heat for at least 24 hours
    • Potential temporary side effects of Voluma™ injections include: tenderness, redness, bruising, swelling, firmness, and bumps at the injection sites. These symptoms are typically mild to moderate in nature and subside within a week
    • Although Voluma™ offers long-lasting results after just one treatment, because every patient metabolizes dermal fillers at a different rate, periodic maintenance treatments may be necessary to preserve and maintain your results.
