What is the difference between voluma and Volift?

Thank you for your question.  Voluma and Volift (marketed as Vollure in the United States) are both hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers in Juvederm family of products.  Both products are smooth gels made from highly-crosslinked HA molecules, which makes them longer-lasting than some of the earlier HA products on the market.    Voluma is a thicker, more dense product, primarily designed for deep injections into the cheek and the midface, while Volift/Vollure is slightly thinner filler designed for more superficial injections in the skin.  Because it is a denser and more robust product, Voluma lasts a little longer than Volift/Vollure - in studies, Voluma lasted up to 24 months, while Vollure lasted up to 18.  There is also a third filler in the same family of products available in the US at this time, Volbella - this is the thinnest product in the family, and is designed for subtle enhancement of the lips.Most governmental regulatory agencies (including the US FDA) require scientific studies demonstrating the efficacy and safety of medications prior to their release.  As a result, these fillers are often only studied in only one particular part of the face, to consistently demonstrate their efficacy, even if they can be used safely and effectively in other parts of the face.  It is ultimately the responsibility of your dermatologist or plastic surgeon to know the specific properties of each product and to thoroughly assess your facial structure and anatomy to determine which products would be best for you.  Even though Voluma is technically for the cheeks and Volift/Vollure is technically for the nasolabial folds, there are patients for whom I would recommend Voluma in the nasolabial folds, etc.  I would suggest consulting with an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you.  Best of luck!    

Volift is known as Vollure in the US and is FDA approved. Voluma and Vollure are both Juvederm fillers. For any procedure please make sure you contact a board-certified physician or other qualified practitioners to get the best results.

Hello and thank you for your question.  Volift is called juvederm vollure in the states.  Volift is best for folds around mouth as well as the lips.  Volift is a  "medium thickness" filler made by Allergan.  Voluma is the thickest made by Allergan.  The third is volbella a thin filler perfect for under eyes and above upper lip.  So the difference is the thickness of the filler.  Voluma is the best choice for cheeks and Volift is the best choice for folds, in my opinion!  Good luck to you!!

Thank you for
your question Alfie3. Vollure (Volift) is a
hyaluronic acid filler designed to enhance the appearance of wrinkles and folds
on the face. Voluma is another filler in the Juvederm family. These two fillers both use the new Vycross technology which allows them to last longer than other fillers. The difference is the concentration of hyaluronic acid in the products. Voluma has a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid and is suitably for volumizing the upper cheeks to restore the youthful apple of the cheek, providing a lift to the lower face. Vollure, on the other hand, has a lower level of hyaluronic acid and is suitable for the nasolabial folds which go from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth and the marionette lines which continue from the nasolabial folds at the corners of the mouth to the jawline. Volbella is the third filler with Vycross technology and has an even lower concentration of hyaluronic acid than Vollure and is suitable for subtle enhancement of the lips and the areas around them. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

VoLift was launched in Europe in 2013 and is a HA filler made by Allergan with lidocaine.Voluma is the name of the long-lasting 2-year HA filler by Allergan in the USA, it also has lidocaine.  Volift is not available in the USA, to the best of my knowledge.

See the video for explanation. Both of these fillers are made by Juvederm- Voluma as the name suggest gives volume, I use this as a foundation filler to help really hollow cheeks, as well as areas such as the jawline. Volift is softer and has lifting properties (all fillers do, but this is exceptionally good). Volift last 18 months, Voluma last 24 months and beyond . Excellent fillers in the correct hands.
