It’s big news for patients looking for mid face facial rejuvenation and volume restoration. Juvéderm Voluma XC, the newest injectable filler used to treat age-related volume loss, has arrived on the U.S. market!

“‘New’ is an interesting way to describe this product,” says Dr. Adam Mamelak, Canadian and U.S. board-certified dermatologist that practices at Sanova Dermatology in Austin. “We’ve been using it for years!”

It’s true. While Juvéderm Voluma is new to the United States, it has been approved fro use in Europe, Canada and other countries around the world for a number of years.  Dr. Mamelak recently relocated to Texas from Toronto, Canada where he treated numerous patients for age-related volume loss.

Voluma is the newest member of the Juvéderm family and is specifically designed to treat the cheeks and mid face. This injectable filler smoothes wrinkles and restores contour to the cheeks ultimately providing you with a more youthful, rejuvenating  look.

“It was one of my ‘go to’s’ for mid face rejuvenation,” claims Dr. Miriam Hanson, a U.S. trained dermatologist that spent 3 1/2 years practicing dermatology and aesthetic medicine in Toronto, Canada at one of the top cosmetic practices in the country.

“The position and shape of our cheek actually changes over time,” says Dr. Hanson.”With a little bit of time and gravity, our cheeks tend to fall, causing a hollowness in the mid face, but also contributing to or even accentuating other age-related changes on the face such as prominent smile lines, marionette lines and jowls.”

JuvédermVoluma XC contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a natural, hydrating substance found in the skin. The function of HA in the skin is to bind water, and ultimately gives the skin its plumpness. As we age, we produce less HA causing our skin to lose volume.

Juvéderm Voluma replaces the HA that we naturally lose as we age, providing a fuller, youthful appearance. Also, Juvéderm Voluma is safe to use and is the first and only filler approved by the FDA specifically for the treatment of the mid face and cheeks. 

“It’s a highly effective way to restore the youthful contours of our cheeks that we lose over time,” claims Dr. Mamelak.

Clinical studies show that Juvéderm Voluma provides lasting effects for up to 2 years. Side effects associated with Juvéderm Voluma are similar to other HA dermal fillers and the procedure well-tolerated. Side effects can include tenderness, bruising, swelling, pain, itching, and discoloration such as redness, which for the most part resolve after 24 hours.
