What Makes Volbella Different?
Volbella is a hyaluronic-acid-based dermal filler in the Juvederm product line. When fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally produced sugar in the body, tissue can absorb it safely and easily.
The major difference between Volbella and other HA fillers is that the gel-like injection was carefully crafted to be a lighter, smoother formula, leaving you with soft natural-looking results.
What Is Volbella Used For?
As we age, our lips become thinner, lose definition, and sag at the corners. Additionally, wrinkles appear around the mouth, which is one of the areas that tend to wrinkle first as we age. These lines are often referred to as perioral lines, lipstick lines, or smoker’s lines.
Volbella is an injectable product aimed at plumping the lips and restoring their definition. It is also used to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth.
Who Can Get Volbella Injections?
Virtually anyone who is looking to enhance their lips with a non-surgical procedure is a candidate to receive Volbella. The best candidates do not have any active skin infections in the targeted region and are in good overall health.
Dermal filler injections are best started in your mid to late 20s as preventative aging care. This is the age range when collagen production and skin elasticity start to naturally decline.
Procedure Expectations
This minimally invasive and non-surgical treatment is administered using a very fine needle, which results in little to no discomfort for patients. Like other injectables in the Juvederm family, Volbella contains a small amount of lidocaine. This local anesthetic numbs the region to any pain or discomfort during your procedure.
Your appointment time will last roughly 30 minutes (including your consultation prior to receiving your injections). The injections themselves should take roughly 15 minutes or less.
Results and Aftercare
There is no downtime or recovery time necessary with injectable cosmetics, and you can immediately return to your day as usual. It is normal to experience swelling, redness, and bruising at the injection site for several hours to days after treatment. Avoid makeup on the area, sun exposure, and exercise for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
Procedure results are typically seen for 9 months to a year after treatment and can be seen almost immediately. However, it is important to keep in mind that everyone is different; the duration of results will vary depending on a person’s metabolism and area of injection. Once results fade, patients can return for additional treatments.
Cost of Volbella Treatment
The price of Juvederm Volbella injections varies. Volbella cost depends on many factors, including the amount of Volbella required to achieve your aesthetic goals. Keep in mind that insurance does not cover elective cosmetic procedures.
