Product: Juvederm Volux
Juvederm Volux from Allergan is considered a true innovation in the world of cosmetology! The filler has unique properties thanks to the patented VYCROSS™ technology.
The product is used for filling and volumetric correction of the lower third of the face, chin area, and angles of the lower jaw. It is worth noting that Volux is much denser than all other products presented in the Juvederm series.
About VYCROSS™ technology
VYCROSS™ technology has been successfully used by Allergan for several years. The uniqueness of this technology is that the molecular weight of hyaluronic acid is significantly lower. Due to this, Juvederm Volux has a soft and elastic structure and is distributed evenly in the tissues. Also, the use of the new formula allows the gel to remain under the skin for a long time. The approximate period is about two years. Visually, we see a more natural picture, as well as a lifting and rejuvenating effect after the procedure.
Indications and expected effect
The main indication is a lack of volume in the soft tissues of the face. The filler allows you to eliminate sagging in the area of the cheekbones, cheeks, chin, and can also be used for:
- correction of nasolabial folds;
- changes in the shape and volume of the lips.
Juvederm Volift filler not only eliminates folds and wrinkles, filling voids, but also significantly improves the overall condition of the skin. It becomes smoother, denser, moisturized, smooth texture and healthy color are restored. The manufacturer offers several varieties of this filler, including Juvederm Volift (higher viscosity) and Juvederm Volift Retouch (the composition and action is the same as the standard Juvederm Volift, but is available in smaller syringes).

The appearance of nasolabial folds
The appearance of nasolabial folds can depend on many factors: a person’s lifestyle, facial expressions, diet, ecology, and individual characteristics of the body.
The formation of such folds is expected in childhood. This is especially true for temperamental people who have pronounced, active facial expressions. With age, nasolabial wrinkles begin to appear because over time the skin:
- Becomes inelastic, flabby;
- Loses elasticity and tone.
This adds years to a person, the face takes on an eternally sad and dissatisfied look. In thin people, the folds become even more expressive.
There are other reasons for the appearance of nasolabial wrinkles, but basically they simply aggravate the existing problem, namely:
- Age-related prolapse of soft tissues;
- Decreased tone of all muscles.
The way out of this situation is to eliminate them at an early stage of formation. For these purposes, the drug Juvederm Ultra appeared in modern cosmetology.

Carrying out the procedure

.
On the day of the procedure, do not drink coffee or energy drinks
.
Do not use blood thinning medications
.
Do not perform the procedure on menstruation days
.
During the procedure, the patient’s face is cleaned and treated with an antiseptic. If necessary, anesthesia is used: injections or cream.
The drug is opened in front of the patient and the expiration date is shown. The sticker from the packaging is pasted into the card.
How is the drug administered?
The filler is injected into the deep layers of the skin slowly. After this, gently knead with massage movements.
How often should I inject?
Since the gel has a high density, the duration of the effect from its administration reaches 12 months or more. The duration is also affected by the patient’s lifestyle. So physical activity, regular sauna and steam baths reduce this period. On average, corrections are made once a year.
How the drug works
The drug contains hyaluronic acid of animal origin. It fills voids, returning volume to the fabric. There are no protein molecules or traces of them in the product. This minimizes the risk of allergic reactions.
Hyaluronic acid, which is part of the product, is obtained synthetically. Its molecules are connected in a lattice using a special technology. They are reliably connected to each other, which complicates the process of destruction of the substance. As a result, the drug is not eliminated from the body quickly. It will attract water molecules to itself, preventing sagging.
How is the procedure performed?
The procedure is carried out according to the following scheme:
- The doctor interviews the patient and identifies the presence of contraindications.
- If there are no contraindications, primary treatment of the area and removal of contaminants is carried out. The specialist then uses an antiseptic to disinfect the injection site.
- The cosmetologist prepares the drug, calculating its volume, and also determines the administration schedule.
- The product is injected under the skin in the area requiring correction.
- The affected area is re-treated and a soothing and healing agent is applied.
- The doctor advises the patient on subsequent care and accelerating the healing process, possible side effects and rules for responding to them.
