5 Things Juvederm Voluma® Does Best

What does Voluma^® do for your face? Our Philadelphia area-based team recommends this filler for patients who want to enhance the mid-face area since Juvederm Voluma^® is a dermal filler that is designed to restore volume and contour the cheeks. The thick gel is injected beneath the skin to provide both lift and contour. This FDA-approved injectable treatment is made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally throughout the body. In the skin specifically, it helps to hydrate and provide a pleasing plumpness.

Voluma^® is a versatile dermal filler and an excellent option for patients who want to enhance their cheekbones. Although you may have heard of this filler before, you may be unsure of how it really works and whether it’s the right choice for you. Let’s explore the benefits of Voluma^® and what it works best to address.

Restoring Volume to the Cheeks

As we age, our cheeks can become flat and hollow, which can make us look older and more tired. JuvedermVoluma^® can be used to restore volume to the cheeks—specifically an area known as the “apple”—giving them a more youthful and lifted appearance.

Sculpting the Cheeks

Although this filler is often used by patients who want to restore a softer appearance to the cheeks, it can converselyalso add more definition to sculpt a more angular appearanceif that’s what the patient desires.

Creating the Illusion of a Sharper Jawline

While jawline sculpting is not its primary purpose (there’s now Volux™ for that), by lifting the mid-face, Voluma^® can have the effect of making the jawline look more defined. This treatment is popular among patients who have a weak or recessed chin or who want to enhance the definition of their jawline.

Lifting the Face

By adding volume to the mid-face,Voluma^®can help to lift the skin, reducing the appearance of sagging and wrinkles. This treatment can provide a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance without the need for surgery or downtime.

Correcting Asymmetry

Many patients have a natural asymmetry in their facial features, which can be corrected with dermal fillers. Voluma^® can be injected into the cheeks to create a more symmetrical appearance, improving the overall balance and harmony of the face.
