Thank you for sharing your excellent question. Without photographs to help guide treatment I would recommend a thinner filler like Vollure or Juvederm Ultra Plus to treat the marionette lines. This will afford a more natural look and feel as Voluma can be too thick and stiff unless placed deeply. Hope this helps.
Voluma is a beautiful product to inject very deep,right on top of bone and approved for enhancement of the cheeks. It lifts the face, softening the nasolabial folds at the same time. With that said, it would be too thick to inject on marionette lines. There are better products to inject in that area like the new Vollure which will last you up to 18 months.
No. I would not recommend Voluma for your marionette lines. I much prefer something like Vollure. It will deliver a more a natural looking results. Voluma is really best for restoring volume to the mid-face/cheek area. Best of luck.
Thank you for your question. I would not use Voluma to treat your marionette lines. Voluma is generally used for areas such as cheeks and nasolabial folds. For marionette lines, I recommend using Restylane Refyne or Juvederm Vollure. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist.
Thank your for your question. Voluma is a good filler for deep lines or volume loss. It would be hard to determine what you are a good candidate for without photos or an in office consultation. Just so you are aware, Voluma is packaged in syringes not vials. So please double check with the individual that you consulted with to confirm you are both talking about the same product. Using a combination treatment of dermal filler with a neuromodulator to the depressor angularis oris muscle is a very good correction of mild to moderate marionette lines. Beware of the individual that will inject you, if you have very deep marionette lines with jowling. Injecting this can sometimes make the area appear even heavier. This is when a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon is waranted to determine if you are a better candidate for a facelift, or other surgical correction. I hope this is helpful
Fillers are packaged in syringes, while Botox® is packaged in vials. Vollure® is my current top choice for filling the marionette lines, but Voluma® is a good option if the lines are deep.
Voluma is a thick filler that is intended to replace volume loss in the mid-face and lift the cheeks. This can improve the appearance of the nasolabial folds and to a lesser extend the marionette lines. If there is a lot of volume loss in the lower face you can use Voluma deep and layer it with a thinner filler. However I prefer to use a softer, more pliable filler in the marionette area like Restylane Defyne, layered with Restylane Refyne for a natural look. Make sure you see an experienced board certified physician. Good luck!
Without seeing a photo it's hard to know what products would be right for you. That being said, Voluma would not be the product I would choose first for marionette lines in general. Voluma is indicated for the mid-face (cheek area) and I find it too "thick" for the lower face. I would likely choose a product like the new Juvederm Vollure or Restylane Defyne to inject in the marionette lines. Good luck!
Voluma is great long lasting filler that has a lot of lifting power. I use it to contour and lift the lower face and jowls. Make sure you have a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon doing your facial work as this is a filler that should be used by experts.
One day after a Voluma injection into the cheeks, there would still be some expected swelling present and this can mask the true result of your treatment. I would wait at least 1-2 weeks before judging your results. If you feel there is still some difference between the sides of your face, t...
Hi @Earl. Juvederm Voluma is a very thick and heavy filler. Restylane and Belotero work great for the tear trough. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!
This appears to be a regular bruise, which is common after filler injections. It can take up to a day for a bruise to show up and it usually resolves in 1-2 weeks. Necrosis of the skin or an embolism leading to blindness is caused by injecting filler into a blood vessel, which is a rare...
