Have you started to notice the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your face? Are you also seeing a loss of facial volume in the cheek area? If so, don’t just sit back and think there’s nothing you can do about it! Thanks to dermal fillers like Voluma, you can reverse these common signs of aging on your face. Voluma offers an alternative that is overall less risky than traditional cosmetic surgery.
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are simply injectable substances that flow easily into the treatment areas. They help fill in lines and wrinkles and add volume to areas that commonly lose it, such as the area around the cheeks.
A Closer Look at Voluma
Voluma is a dermal filler consisting of a gel containing something called hyaluronic acid. This substance is already present in the human body. It contributes to skin hydration by holding water, combining with collagen and elastin to support skin structure and elasticity.
Over time, your body begins producing less hyaluronic acid, and the amount you do have begins breaking down more quickly. This leads to a loss of facial volume, as well as those pesky fine lines and wrinkles that can make you appear tired and older than your age.
Voluma helps to restore your normal, youthful levels of hyaluronic acid, creating a soft, natural-looking result. Your results will be immediate and will continue to improve over the following days. Since you are only restoring your levels of hyaluronic acid that have been depleted, your results will appear very natural and subtle. You will simply look like a younger, more refreshed version of yourself.
The Procedure
Voluma is a non-surgical treatment administered in the comfort of our office through skillful injections. The procedure typically takes just minutes to perform, and little to no downtime is involved! Most clients can resume their everyday activities immediately after the treatment session.
What About the Results?
One advantage that comes with Voluma treatment is that your results are immediate. The special cross-linking formulation used to create the product will slow down your hyaluronic acid metabolism, leading to results that can last for up to two years! Since the Voluma solution will gradually be absorbed and broken down by your body, you will eventually require touch-up treatments to maintain your results.
