Juvederm Voluma in Lake Mary

Voluma is FDA-approved for the cheeks and mid-face and for improving chin profile. It is a firm, supportive gel that sits deep, close to the bone, to restore structure. It is not used in the lips, where a softer gel like Volbella or Ultra is more suitable. Your provider will discuss which areas suit you.

In the cheeks, Voluma can last up to two years, which makes it one of the longer-lasting hyaluronic acid fillers. Chin results are similar for many clients. How long it lasts depends on how much is used, your metabolism and lifestyle factors such as sun exposure. Many clients maintain with smaller amounts over time.

Not when it is placed with restraint. Voluma is used to replace the support that thins with age, not to add new volume. Restoring the cheeks often makes the lower face look lifted and less tired. Your provider starts conservatively and can add more at a follow-up if you want.

Both are firm hyaluronic acid fillers for the cheeks. Voluma, from the Juvederm family, is also approved for the chin and often lasts up to two years. Restylane Lyft is also approved for smile lines and the backs of the hands, and typically lasts up to a year in the cheeks. Your provider will recommend one based on your anatomy.

Most clients feel pressure more than pain. Voluma contains lidocaine, a local anesthetic, and numbing cream can be applied first. Providers often use a cannula, a blunt-tipped tool, which can reduce bruising. Some tenderness when touching or chewing may last a few days.
