I was told it would take 4- 6 weeks to see full results of Volbella. Is this true? I thought the results were immediate

VolBella results are usually instant,however some improvement continues for the next 3 to 4 days.  Because Vilbella  is minimally hydrophilic  there won't  be that much swelling in the first couple weeks. The results are usually right initially with the injection with some increase in volume over the next 3 to 4 days. It is a fantastic product to shape the lips and to increase some volume.

 Volbella begins plumping your lips as soon as it is injected. However, owing to the trauma of needles and cannulas, you will probably be a little swollen for about two weeks. Once that resolves, your final results will be visible. Consulting with a board-certified dermatologist who has expertise in lip augmentation will help you get the beautiful lips you desire.

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  You will see immediate results from the fillers' volume increase but swelling accompanies the treatment.  Over the first several days to weeks this swelling will dissipate offering you the full long-term results.  Hope this helps.

The volumization is immediate, but the swelling makes the result not final until several weeks have passed. If you have additional concerns, then speak with your injector.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO 

Volbella for the lips will show the results right away. Now the swelling will make the lips look bigger and it takes few days for the swelling to get better and eventually give you the final looks on the lips but not 4-6 weeks.

Volbella like other fillers in the same category augment areas of volume loss almost immediately, although to see fine results, it’s advised to wait a few days till the swelling goes down. 

Since Volbella is an injectable gel filler, you will notice results immediately.  However, best results are appreciated 3-4 days after treatment when any swelling or bruising has resolved.  Volbella is an excellent product for softening lip lines and can last up to one year!

The results of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, like Volbella are immediate. Following your treatment you can expect to experience some swelling and possibly bruising which should resolve within 2-3 weeks. 
The result from the Volbella is indicated to last up to 12 months, but varies from person to person.

The results with hyaluronic acid fillers, like Volbella, are indeed immediate but you can expect some degree of swelling post-treatment. Swelling can take up to 2 weeks to resolve, so after this period you should have your "full results." Volbella is indicated to last for up to 1 year. Some individuals may metabolize HA products like Volbella more quickly or slowly, but the 12 month duration should give you a good ballpark estimate of when you would need your next treatment session to maintain results. Good luck!
