JUVÉDERM Voluma® XC
Unfortunately as we age, our skin changes; lines and wrinkles seem to appear overnight. Botox and Juvederm are the go to injectables to treat these concerns, but what about loss of volume in the cheeks? Allergan (the maker of Botox and Juvederm) have an option for you called Voluma®. This injectable gel helps with loss of volume and saggy skin. Voluma is hyaluronic acid filler which are made from long chains of sugars that occur naturally in the skin. Juvederm Voluma is unique in that the hyaluronic acid is cross-linked through a process called VYCROSS® that helps provide an excellent lifting capacity. The special cross linking makes Voluma last longer than some other injectables. Get a more youthful appearance in just one treatment!
