I want to get longer term injectable . I need to uplift and fill my lines at the corners of my lips. Can Voluma be used for this type of fill?
Answer: Voluma for the corners of the mouth Voluma is an excellent choice for midface volume enhancement. It is not ideal for other areas of the face until longterm studies have been performed. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Answer: Optimal filler results with Voluma Voluma is one of the most robust fillers we have, providing smooth volume and a stronger lift than most or all of the other hyaluronic acid fillers. Its indicated for use in the cheeks, but can be used off label wherever the doc and patient feel comfortable. So yes it can be used in the marionette lines. However the fine, superficial lines near the corner of the mouth are not well treated with voluma. Softer fillers such as the juvederm line, or restylane products are more efficient here. And while they may not last as long as voluma, they are still very effective.

Answer: Voluma for Mouth Corners Voluma can work wonders for anywhere there is loss of volume or lift/contour. It is currently approved for the midface but works well in other areas if injected properly. I suggest a filler expert who uses microcannulas, as this can limit complications. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Using Voluma For Marionette Lines Around The Mouth Voluma is FDA approved for volumization of the cheeks. It is also used "off-label" in the jawline area as well as the chin and nose by some. Technically, there is no rule that says you can't use it for treating the downturned corners of the mouth (marionette lines). But, because Voluma is a bulky filler, using it around the mouth can cause lumps and bumps. I do not use it around the mouth. I think you can achieve better results with Juvederm or Juvederm Ultra Plus which can last for up to 1 year. Hope this helps answer your question.

Answer: Filler around the mouth Voluma is FDA approved for use in the mid-face (cheeks). It is a very "thick" filler made of hyaluronic acid. It is best used when placed right along the bones and can really build up cheeks. It is also great along the jawline. If you only have issues with the corners of your mouth, or a downturned smile, one of the other fillers like Restylane or Juvederm Ultra would be better choices. Belotero and Restylane Silk are great for fine lines along the lip line.
