Revitalize your appearance with Voluma® gel and restore the youthful contours of your cheeks and Jowl area to reduce the signs of aging—all with one procedure.Voluma® is similar to Juvederm® in that they are composed of hyaluronic acid, except Voluma® has larger gel particles and is injected deeper into the skin than Juvederm®. The effects of Voluma can last 2 years with adequate volumeinjected to start.

During the procedure Dr. Gray injects Voluma® deep under the skin to restorevolume and correct moderate to severe deep volume loss in the cheeks that most people experience with aging and weight loss.

Voluma, Perrlane, Bellafill/Artefill and Radiesse are not intended for injection into the lips and therefore cannot be used to treat superficial fine lines and wrinkles. Fine lines and wrinkles are treated with laser resurfacing, Botox and to a lesser degree, Restylane and Juvederm. Perlane, Bellafill/Artefill and Radiesse can be injected deep into skin and under the skin whereas Voluma is only injected deep to the skin.

With Voluma®XC there is no downtime and no recovery. This is the same as you might expect with any type of injection.
