i had fat grafting but the results are not dramatic, so i anticipate doing voluma on the submalar area at the three month mark. are you able to achieve a softer look in the submalar area with on syringe each. how long will it last.
Answer: Voluma adds volume to submalar area; Consider sculptra Voluma is a great product for the mid face. I routinely choose Voluma for augmenting and lifting cheeks. As well, it softens submalar hollows, but depending on the amount of correction, it can take a lot of voluma to soften those submalar hollows. For pronounced submalar hollows in thin faces, I often use sculptra. Sculptra's effect is a softer, more gradual, lifting effect.There are studies to show that voluma should last 2 years. The real question is how long before you will desire a touchup. That really depends on how quickly you are aging. The amount of time it takes before a 25 year old needs a touchup is much longer than the amount of time before a 60 year old needs a touchup. If you go to an experienced injector, s/he will be able to explain what products will be the best for your particular situation.

Answer: Voluma in the cheeks. Thank you for your question. Voluma is an excellent choice for adding volume to the midface area. Voluma can last approx. 2 years and sometimes even longer. You will require an in person examination to determine the amount of product right for the desired outcome. Best,

Answer: Voluma to midface and submalar region You can have Voluma injected into the submalar and midfacial zones of the face after fat grafting. Its certainly a more reliable filler than fat grafting, but does not have some of the benefits that fat grafting offers (improvement of overlying skin appearance etc)

Answer: True duration of Voluma During my fellowship training in Los Angeles, I saw patients from the initial Voluma trial who were maintaining correction for significant durations beyond 2 years. Derek Jones was the lead investigator on that trial and was one of my faculty members at UCLA, he had great insight to the product. The initial trials used more volume of product than most people use today in clinical practice, and the trials looked specifically at the midface, but when they got towards their initial endpoint the FDA realized that people were maintaining their correction and had Allergan extend the follow up to 2 years. That is where the often quoted two year duration comes from, but it is definitely longer in a significant number of people.

Answer: Juvederm Voluma Thank you for your question about VolumaIn our experience, it takes a minimum of two syringes per side.We began injecting Voluma at our practice in January 2014. We will let you know if it lasts 2 years in our patients. To be sure, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have Voluma. I hope this helps.
