Overview
From the Juvéderm® family, Voluma is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) filler that instantaneously adds lift and volume to the cheeks to give you back the face and profile of your youth. As we age, there is a natural loss of volume that occurs in the cheeks. This creates a sunken, hollow look that can be addressed with a painless dermal injectable by our board-certified cosmetic surgeons, Dr. Holden and Dr. Tsujimura, in Scottsdale, AZ. Voluma addresses the apples and hollows of the cheeks to help fill in lost volume, which helps improve moderate to severe wrinkles around the nose and mouth, and is prepared with lidocaine for added comfort.

What to Expect
Using a think syringe, the cosmetic surgeon injects Voluma into the apex, apple and hollow of the patient’s cheek. Results are immediate, and can last up to 2 years. Side effects are considered mild to moderate, and can last between 2 and 4 weeks. The most common side effects are tenderness, swelling, firmness, bumps, bruising, redness, itching or discoloration at the injection site.

Voluma FAQs
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
This is a naturally occurring substance that helps bind water to cells. Its cross-linking abilities help provide lifting capacity, which restores volume in the cheeks and mid-face.
Best Candidate?
The plastic surgeon will help you create a unique treatment plan during your consultation. With extensive experience in a wide array of different fillers and relaxers, the cosmetic surgeon may include a combination of different fillers and techniques to achieve the desired results.
Any Downtime?
There is no downtime after a Voluma treatment. Patients can return to their normal activities, but it is suggested that patients avoid strenuous activities for the first 24 hours after any injectable filler treatments.
Lasting Results?
The results can be seen immediately, and can last up to 2 years. The duration of the results depends on the area being treated, and the rate the patient’s tissue breaks down the filler.
