Midface volume loss is one of the most common effects of aging, and it can make your face look gaunt, hollow, and tired. The loss of volume also increases the prominence of facial wrinkles and fine lines. Juvéderm Voluma injections restore facial volume making the cheeks, chin and jawline distinct.

Dr. Vial also uses Juvéderm Voluma to perform liquid rhinoplasty.

How is Juvéderm Voluma performed?

Your Juvéderm Voluma treatment starts with a consultation with Dr. Vial. He will review your medical history, examine your facial tissues, and discuss your goals to create the ideal Juvéderm treatment plan. He individually curates all treatments to ensure optimal, safe, and subtle results.

During your treatment, your skin will be cleansed. Dr. Vial will mark the injection spots on your face; Juvéderm will then be injected into the targeted facial tissues using ultrafine needles and cannulas. You may experience a mild pinch. The injections take minutes.

What is the recovery process after Juvéderm Voluma?

Juvéderm Voluma does not involve an extended recovery process. You can resume all your daily activities and work immediately, but you should avoid strenuous workouts for 24 hours. You should also keep your head elevated for a few hours and avoid any additional facial treatments.
