JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC in Beverly Hills & Pasadena

What is Juvéderm Voluma® XC?

Juvéderm Voluma® XC is an injectable dermal filler used to add volume to the cheeks and mid-face area. It is made from hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to add moisture and plumpness to the skin.

Juvéderm Voluma® XC is designed to correct age-related volume loss in the cheeks, which can occur due to the natural aging process or weight loss. It can also be used to enhance the cheekbones and create a more youthful and lifted appearance.

The “XC” in the product name indicates that the product contains a small amount of lidocaine, a local anesthetic, which can help to reduce any discomfort during the injection process.

Procedure

The process of receiving Juvéderm Voluma XC injections typically takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on the extent of the treatment area and the number of injections needed.

Recovery

The recovery time after receiving Juvéderm Voluma® XC injections is typically minimal, and most people are able to return to their regular activities immediately following the procedure.

Results
