Question

Should I choose juvederm voluma or volux if I want tons of volume In my lips? I metabolize fast and did research I’m comfortable using other and I don’t necessarily mind bumps because I know how to massage well I did it for my friends lips. Would juvederm volux give me more volume or is it the same as voluma just firmer feeling?

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Neither Voluma nor Volux is FDA-approved for use in the lips. Voluma is typically used to add volume to the cheeks and chin, and Volux is designed for defining the jawline. The best next step is to schedule a consultation with an experienced provider who can evaluate your goals and create a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically to you.

Regarding the choice between Juvederm Voluma and Volux for achieving significant volume in your lips. Both products are part of the Juvederm family, but they are designed for different purposes, which can influence your decision.

Juvederm Voluma:

Purpose: Primarily used for adding volume to the cheeks and midface area. It is designed to create contour and lift.
Characteristics: Provides a softer feel and is formulated for deeper injection, which might not be ideal for the delicate lip area.
Juvederm Volux:

Purpose: Specifically formulated to enhance and define the jawline, but it can also be used in other areas requiring structural volume.
Characteristics: Offers a firmer gel consistency, which may provide more structural support and volume compared to Voluma. This could potentially result in a more pronounced volumizing effect for the lips.
Given your desire for significant volume and your comfort with managing potential side effects like bumps, Juvederm Volux might be the better option for achieving the full, voluminous lips you desire. However, it's important to note that neither product is specifically designed for lip enhancement, and their use in this area should be carefully considered.

I recommend consulting with a board-certified dermatologist or a licensed injector who has experience with both products. They can assess your individual needs and help you choose the most appropriate filler to achieve your desired results while ensuring safety and effectiveness.

If you have any further questions or need assistance in scheduling a consultation, feel free to reach out.

Thank you for posting your question. Many products may be used to augment the volume of the lips. I prefer.Restylane Kysse for volume with natural results. See an experienced oculofacial surgeon for detailed evaluation, discussion of options and proper guidance.

John L. Burns Jr., MD · Answer

Both Volume and Volux are very dense fillers better suited to body enhancement.  Lips need a softer filler like Restylane Define/Refine or Juvederm Volbella or Ultra.

David Hansen, MD · Answer

Consider lip implants for that permanent fullness.  They are easy to put in and easy to remove. You can still supplement the lips with fillers as well if you want to add  volume or change shape.  Cost is roughly $3500 per implant and will save you tons of money in  the long run (not to mention pain from every 3 months filler injections.)

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Both fillers are thicker and will give you more significant volume.  Voluma is typically used to address the cheek and mid face while Volux is more commonly used to define the jawline.  Both will result in a firmer feel.  Speak with your injector about what is best for you.
