A Closer Look at Hyaluronic Acid
What Is Hyaluronic Acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the human body, particularly in the skin, eyes, joints, connective tissues, and more. Its function is to retain moisture, which helps keep tissues well-lubricated and healthy. This unique molecule can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water and is especially important for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity.
The Role of Hyaluronic Acid in Skincare
In skincare, hyaluronic acid is renowned for its powerful hydrating properties. It helps to replenish moisture in the skin, leading to a smoother, more supple appearance. As we age, the natural levels of hyaluronic acid in our skin decrease, contributing to dryness and the formation of wrinkles. By incorporating hyaluronic acid into skincare products and treatments, we can combat these signs of aging and improve overall skin health.
What Is JUVÉDERM VOLUMA?
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is a dermal filler specifically formulated to add volume to the cheeks and mid-face area. This injectable gel is composed of hyaluronic acid, which helps to restore lost volume and enhance facial contours. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is designed to provide natural-looking results with a smooth, even finish, helping patients achieve a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
How JUVÉDERM VOLUMA Uses Hyaluronic Acid
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC utilizes hyaluronic acid to deliver its volumizing effects. The hyaluronic acid in this formula works by attracting and retaining water, which helps to fill out and lift the treated areas. This not only adds volume but also improves skin hydration. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is specifically cross-linked to provide longer-lasting results.
Target Areas for JUVÉDERM VOLUMA
- Cheeks: JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is commonly used to add volume to the cheeks. This treatment can help restore the natural contours of your face and fill any areas where you have started to notice a loss of volume due to aging.
- Chin: For those looking to enhance their chin, JUVÉDERM treatments can provide subtle yet effective results. By adding volume, it can help improve the overall balance and proportion of your facial features. It is often used to correct chin retrusion.
- Mid-Face Region: The mid-face region often shows the earliest signs of aging, such as sagging and loss of volume. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA targets this area to lift and rejuvenate.
The Science Behind JUVÉDERM VOLUMA
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA features Vycross® technology, which combines low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid. This approach improves cross-linking efficiency, resulting in a smoother consistency and more enduring results compared to other fillers. The distinctive formulation of JUVÉDERM VOLUMA creates a gel that is firm enough to lift while remaining soft enough to integrate seamlessly with your natural facial contours.
Why Choose JUVÉDERM VOLUMA?
A Natural Look and Feel
JUVÉDERM filler is designed to integrate smoothly with your facial tissues, providing a natural look and feel. The smooth consistency of the gel allows for precise application, enhancing your features without looking overdone. This makes JUVÉDERM VOLUMA an excellent choice for those seeking subtle yet effective facial rejuvenation.
Immediate Effects
Another benefit of JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is that you can see results almost immediately after the treatment. The added volume and lifted appearance are visible right away, allowing you to enjoy the rejuvenating effects without a long waiting period.
Reversible
An added advantage of JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is its reversibility. If, for any reason, you wish to adjust the filler or change your look, an enzyme called hyaluronidase can be used to dissolve the hyaluronic acid. This feature provides peace of mind, knowing that any changes can be made if desired.
What to Expect From the Treatment Process
JUVÉDERM treatments involve a fast and hassle-free series of injections. Each session takes around 30 minutes to complete. Injections are performed with a very small needle, and while you will feel a pinch with each injection, our patients find the process tolerable.
You can ask about topical numbing cream if you want additional comfort measures. A small amount of filler will be injected into each area, and your injector will assess the results as the treatment proceeds to make sure you are getting the look you want.
Post-Treatment Care
Following your JUVÉDERM treatment, adhering to the recommended post-treatment guidelines is essential for optimal results. Mild swelling or redness at the injection sites is normal and typically diminishes within a few days. To facilitate a smooth recovery, refrain from vigorous activities, limit sun exposure, and avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
How Long Does JUVÉDERM VOLUMA Last?
One of the appealing aspects of JUVÉDERM filler is its longevity. Typically, the results from JUVÉDERM VOLUMA can last up to one year in the chin and two years in the cheeks. The unique Vycross technology used in the filler helps the product to remain in place and provides lasting volume and lift, reducing the frequency of touch-up treatments.
Suitable Candidates for JUVÉDERM VOLUMA
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is ideal for adults looking to address age-related volume loss in their cheeks and mid-face region. It’s suitable for those who want to achieve a more youthful appearance without undergoing surgery and who have healthy skin.
