Differences in JUVÉDERM products

Cheeks

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC

What is JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC?

As you get older, the cheeks can lose their fullness and the skin may start to droop. This happens due to the natural decrease in volume in the cheek region, known as age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC addresses this by adding volume below the skin's surface, lifting and contouring the cheek area for a more youthful appearance.

What is its duration of effectiveness?

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC delivers natural-looking results that can endure for up to 2 years with the right treatment approach.

How does it work?

As we age, the cheeks lose their youthful contour, often flattening out and leading to sagging skin. JUVEDERM VOLUMA XC injectable gel is formulated to temporarily counteract these aging indicators. By injecting this gel into the cheeks, it lifts the skin, adding temporary volume that creates a smoother, more youthful facial contour.

Potential Side Effects

Common side effects comprised temporary responses at the treatment site like tenderness, swelling, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, pain, redness, discoloration, and itching. These side effects were typically moderate (uncomfortable) and typically resolved within 2 to 4 weeks. As with any skin injection procedure, there is a risk of infection.

Chin

How does it work?

JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is skillfully administered to the chin region to enhance chin projection.

The incorporation of lidocaine aids in enhancing injection comfort by minimizing pain sensitivity.

Potential Side Effects

Common side effects comprised temporary responses at the treatment site like tenderness, swelling, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, pain, redness, discoloration, and itching.
