What is the difference between Juvederm and Juvederm Voluma?

Juvederm is a softer hyaluronic acid filler that
is used primarily in the perioral and lip area. It is excellent in this area
and should not be used in the tear trough area as it can provide too much
volume in this area. Voluma is a deeper volumizing hyaluronic acid filler that
is used primarily in the malar areas and has excellent results. Both are FDA approved, long-lasting fillers that are safe and reversible. These fillers should be injected by
someone with expertise in Filling such as a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon,
Dermatologist, or Otolaryngologist, Oculoplastic surgeon with expertise because
placing the filler in the right area and depth with the right amount is key to optimizing
results and safety.

Nancy45948 Allergan is the manufacturer for both Juvederm and Voluma. While the main ingredient in both is the same, hyaluronic acid, the thickness (g prime) is different. This difference makes Voluma a much better candidate for giving volume and structure to the cheeks and Juvederm ,the filler of choice for the lips.

Voluma is a specific product that will contour and augment the cheek area or hollow beneath the orbit.  Other hyaluronic acid products such as Restylane are more suited for the lip area.  

Hi there thank you for your question. Juvederm voluma is better used in deeper areas of the face such as the cheeks / or chin. I would personally recommend something a little softer in the range for lips such as volift or vobella. Hope this helps!Dr Rupert

Restylane, Juvederm, and Voluma are all hyaluronic acid based products and are similar in many ways. Restylane and Juvederm work well in the lips, but not Voluma. Voluma is best for cheek augmentation and restoring lost volume. It is usually injected more deeply than the other two products, and would be too firm for the lips. It would likely create stiffness and possible nodularity without the smooth texture desired in the lips.
I like Restylane and Restylane Silk for adding definition to the lips, while Juvederm works great for plumping the lips.
All the best,

voluma is made from the same thing as juvederm.  Both are a naturally occurring substance in the body.  Voluma is cross linked more which makes it last longer and act firmer.   Voluma is not typically used in the lips because it is too hard.  It is used along the bone for most applications

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Juvederm is a thinner HA, while Voluma is a bit thicker, thus making it stronger. So Voluma should be used more in the cheeks or chin. Juvederm can be used in the mouth area. It is best to consult with a doctor to see if Juvederm or Restylane will be better in your lips. It tends to be a case by case bases. Good luck!

Voluma is a hyaluronic acid gel product that is ideal for deep injection at the cheeks to add volume and lift. It is not designed for injection into the lips due to the thickness of the product which can cause lumpiness. Juvederm is a great product that is ideal for injection into the lips to increase the volume of the lips. It is also a hyaluronic acid gel product, but it is thinner and better suited for the lip area as well as marionette lines and nasolabial folds. Restylane is similar to Juvederm and may also be injected into the lips. It is always best to obtain a consultation so that you may be evaluated in person and the treatment and products can be explained in detail.

Juvederm is a softer hyaluronic filler good for the lips and for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles such as those around the mouth. It can also be used effectively to reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. Voluma is a denser filler that is formulated specifically to restore lost volume in the cheeks and midface. It is not generally used for lip augmentation, as it is meant to be placed quite deep beneath the skin. However, ultimately, the product used does not matter as much as the physician injecting the product. Be sure to do your research and find an experienced, board-certified dermatologist for any filler injections.

The difference between Juvederm and Voluma is that Voluma is a thicker, longer lasting product that is typically placed in deep tissue planes to correct areas of significant volume loss such as the cheeks. Voluma is not recommended for lips. On the other hand, Juvederm is a slightly thinner product that is excellent for lip volumization.

Juvederm and Voluma are both Hyaluronic acid fillers, the difference between the two is based on how closely bound the hyaluronic acid molecules are in each product. Juvederm is a more loosely bound product, is softer and thinner, and this feature makes it great for treating undereyes, lips, and finer lines around the mouth/marionettes etc. Voluma a thicker product, has a better ability to lift and volumize, we use this for areas like the cheeks and temples, sometimes the nasolabial folds, it helps to elevate depressions because of these properties. Voluma would be too thick for undereyes, or delicate areas like the lips, it would result in a very firm and possibly unsmooth finished look.
