If you have been searching for a lip filler that can plump your lips with natural-looking results, Juvederm® Volbella may be for you! Juvederm Volbella is part of a family of dermal fillers used for cosmetic enhancement. This FDA-approved filler is a great non-surgical procedure option for lip augmentation, designed to provide subtle, natural-looking results.
What is Juvederm® Volbella?
Juvederm® Volbella is a hyaluronic acid-based injectable filler to plump the lips and minimize the appearance of lines around the lips, also known as perioral lines, in patients 21 years and older. Juvederm Volbella’s unique formulation uses proprietary Vycross technology, which cross-links hyaluronic acid molecules for a smoother gel, reduced swelling, and natural-looking results with enhanced comfort.
During treatment, Volbella will be injected into the targeted treatment area(s) using an ultra-fine needle. The treatment area is carefully selected based on the patient’s goals to add volume, improve the shape of the lips, and address concerns at the corners of the mouth. Because Volbella contains a small amount of lidocaine, the procedure is designed to minimize pain and maximize comfort. Treatment is quick, commonly lasting 15-20 minutes. Volbella is a smoother gel compared to other fillers, providing subtle contour and a more even, natural appearance.
A consultation is needed to determine the best filler and approach for each patient, ensuring the treatment plan is customized to their unique needs. Juvéderm Volbella XC is effective for addressing volume loss due to aging, and can be used to treat nasolabial folds and smile lines for a more youthful look. While Volbella is ideal for lips and fine lines, other fillers like Juvederm Ultra XC are used to add volume to the cheeks and jawline for more dramatic contouring. These minimally invasive treatments are tailored to deliver customizable, natural-looking results.
How Does It Work?
Made up of Vycross technology, this filler’s smooth consistency yields natural-looking and beautiful results. Juvederm® Volbella is made up of smaller hyaluronic acid particles than other Juvederm products, making it perfect to treat fine lines and delicate areas like the lips.
FDA Approval and Safety
Juvederm Volbella XC stands out as an FDA-approved dermal filler specifically designed for lip augmentation and the correction of perioral rhytids, or those fine lines and wrinkles that often develop around the mouth as part of the natural aging process. Its safety and effectiveness have been thoroughly validated in clinical studies, which have shown that Juvederm Volbella XC is highly effective at temporarily adding volume to the lips and smoothing upper lip lines and vertical lip lines for a more youthful appearance.
The unique formulation of Juvederm Volbella XC is based on hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin that helps retain moisture and maintain structure. Thanks to Vycross technology, this filler delivers a smooth, natural-looking result, making it an excellent choice for patients who want to enhance lip volume and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without looking overdone.
Before receiving treatment, it’s important for patients to discuss their medical history with their provider to ensure they are suitable candidates for dermal filler injections. To minimize discomfort during the procedure, a numbing cream or ice pack may be applied to the injection site, helping to ensure a comfortable experience. After treatment, some patients may notice mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the treated area, but these effects are typically short-lived and resolve within a few days.
Choosing a skilled and experienced provider is essential to reduce the risk of rare complications, such as skin necrosis or pigmentation disorders. Following your provider’s post-treatment instructions, such as applying a cold compress, avoiding strenuous exercise, and protecting the treated area from excessive sun exposure, can further support a smooth recovery and optimal results.
With its proven safety profile and ability to restore lost volume while delivering natural-looking results, Juvederm Volbella XC remains a popular option for those seeking to achieve fuller lips, smooth fine lines, and enjoy a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Juvederm® Volbella Results
There is no downtime needed after treatment, so patients can go about their daily routines. Common side effects of Volbella include swelling, bruising, redness, and itching at the injection site, though these are temporary and should resolve with time. Results are noticeable for as long as a year, making a great option for those who do not wish to receive touch-ups every few months. However, touch-up treatments may be recommended to maintain optimal results as the filler gradually diminishes.
