Over time, the natural aging process can cause the skin to lose its volume and elasticity, as well as develop fine lines and wrinkles. JUVEDERM® VOLUMA™ XC is currently the first and only injectable dermal filler approved by the FDA for treating the cheeks and midfacial region. We offer this treatment option at our Las Vegas med spa to help restore lost volume to the cheeks and smooth out moderate to severe wrinkles in the midfacial region. With JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC, you can achieve your goals with beautiful results!
How does it work?
Similar to the original JUVEDERM solution, JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC is made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally-occurring substance in the human body. Hyaluronic acid helps the skin’s collagen and elastin ward off wrinkles and sagginess, and also works as a natural moisturizer. The clear solution is injected into the treatment sites with a thin needle and typically begins working almost immediately. JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC helps fill in wrinkles and signs of aging along the face and can be very useful for adding volume to cheeks that have taken on a hollow or “sunken” appearance.
Does it hurt?
JUVEDERM VOLUMA™ XC contains a local anesthetic in its solution that works to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Most patients say they experience little to no discomfort during treatment.
How long is a treatment session?
Treatment is relatively quick and usually takes about 30 minutes. It can typically be completed during a lunch break.
