Voluma is coming to the States! The makers of Juvederm have perfected a long lasting facial injectable that restores volume to the face, giving it a softer, more youthful look. Already available in Canada and Europe, Voluma is the latest generation of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers that claims to last up to 18 months! This news is a sign of relief for patients who have been getting injections every 6-9 months to restore volume. Voluma is intended to restore loss of facial volume in the cheeks, cheekbones and chin that can be lost during weight loss or aging.
Comparative fillers such as Radiesse, Sculptra, or Restylane all have common side effects including lumps and product migration. Voluma contains particles that are easier to inject, resulting in a smooth, natural appearance. Voluma also fits in perfectly with Dr. Stong’s cannula technique, a revolutionary method for injecting fillers that is less painful than needles without the bruising and swelling. Just in case you’re among the small 2% of products testers who would not recommend Voluma to their friends… it’s reversible! Look for Voluma to be available at Kalos in the fall.
