At FacesFirst Cosmetic Surgery, we understand that age-related volume loss in the cheeks and mid-face can leave you looking more tired or aged than you feel. If you’re seeking a non-surgical solution to restore youthful contours and facial harmony, Juvéderm® Voluma XC may be the answer. Offered at our conveniently located offices in Denver and Lone Tree, CO, this FDA-approved dermal filler helps lift and define your facial features for a naturally rejuvenated appearance.
What Is Juvéderm® Voluma XC?
Juvéderm® Voluma XC is the first and only hyaluronic acid-based filler FDA-approved specifically to address volume loss in the mid-face, including the apples of the cheeks, cheekbones, and surrounding areas. As part of the trusted Juvéderm® family of fillers, Voluma is designed to deliver subtle lift and long-lasting contour without surgery or downtime.
Unlike traditional wrinkle fillers, Voluma is formulated with VYCROSS® technology, which blends hyaluronic acid molecules of different weights. This results in a smoother, more cohesive gel that provides both lift and longevity, lasting up to two years in many patients.
How Aging Affects Facial Volume
Over time, our skin loses elasticity, collagen, and underlying fat that gives the face its youthful structure. This natural aging process can lead to hollow cheeks, sagging skin, and a loss of definition around the jawline and temples.
Voluma XC addresses these changes by replenishing lost volume beneath the skin’s surface. The result is a smoother transition from the lower eyelids to the cheeks, a more sculpted mid-face, and a refreshed overall appearance.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
While Juvéderm® Voluma XC is most commonly used in the cheek area and mid-face, it can also be used in select cases to enhance other areas, including:
- Jawline to create more definition
- Chin for better facial balance
- Temples to smooth hollowness
- Lower face in combination with other treatments for full facial rejuvenation
At FacesFirst, your treatment plan will be customized to enhance your natural beauty while addressing your individual goals.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Your comfort is a priority at FacesFirst. Before treatment, we’ll apply a topical numbing cream to ensure a comfortable experience. Juvéderm® Voluma XC also contains lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to further reduce discomfort during injection.
The procedure typically takes 30 to 45 minutes and requires little to no downtime. You may return to most normal activities right away, though we advise avoiding strenuous exercise or alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment to minimize swelling or bruising.
When Will I See Results?
Results with Voluma XC are visible immediately after your appointment. You’ll notice fuller, more youthful contours that continue to improve as minor injection site swelling resolves over the next few days. Best of all, results can last up to 24 months, making this one of the longest-lasting fillers available today.
