Which is thicker, juvederm ultra plus or voluma? Which will last longer when used in the face?
Answer: Which is thicker, juvederm ultra plus or voluma? Thank you for your question. Voluma is a very good filler for your cheeks and midface. It is a bit of a larger molecule, so it is usually placed deeper in the skin, (subdermal). The sales people will tell you it lasts about 2 years. In our experience it last about a year and a half. As far as Juvederm Ultra Plus, (which we like for the nasolabial folds), and Juvederm Ultra, (which we like for the lips), the sales people will tell you it lasts about a year, in reality about 9 months. Every person is different so it can last a longer or shorter time period, depending on the patient. It has been our experience that some folks that are hypermetabolic, (in the gym twice a day, etc.), tend to break down Botox and Fillers faster. Our very expressive patients also tend to break down the products faster. Each individual is different. Please see a well trained, experienced injector. Discuss your goals, and you should be able to come up with a plan. Jeffrey J. Roth, M.D., F.A.C.S.Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLas Vegas Plastic Surgery

Answer: Which is thicker, juvederm ultra plus or voluma? Thanks for your query. Voluma is thicker and has high density but is designed for certain areas like cheek augmentation or chin augmentation or jaw defining , Juvederm ultra plus is a little less in density than voluma and is suited for nasolabial folds, marionette lines , temporal hollowing and the lightest of all is ultra which is suited for lips and tear troughs. So the type of filler used highly various with area to be filled. All the fillers last for around 8 months to 1 year and volume can last for around 2 years. Hope it helps.All The Best

Answer: Juvaderm vs voluma Thank you for your question. Voluma is thicker product and will last up to 2 years, whereas juvaderm lasts about 1 year. This being said, these products are used for different areas and for different goals. You should not make a decision based on which will last longer. An experienced injector can examine you and determine what product is best for you and your desired goals. Many time a combination of a few different fillers is recommended. Good luck to you.

Answer: Longer lasting--Voluma for the win! They are both made by allergan but voluma lasts up to 2 years, is thicker and needs to be injected more deeply as it has vycross technology and acts more like an implant as compared to juvederm ultra or ultra plus. Best, Dr. Emer.
