Some patients require only a small amount of Voluma to amplify and highlight their cheeks. Those patients are generally younger, in their 30's or early 40's, and have good bone structure and only a small amount of fat loss in the area. These younger patients can benefit from as little as 1/2 syringe of Voluma on each side. Most patients, however, require a little more volume to augment cheek projection, fill hollows, and create graceful angles. One syringe of Voluma on each side (one per cheek) is probably the most common volume used. However, elderly patients, patients with advanced fat loss, and patients that have extremely poor bone structure require larger amounts of product. When injecting larger volumes of Voluma, the patient can elect to be injected in a single visit, or have smaller amounts of product injected at more frequently intervals.
Hi there,Thank you for your question. Quantity is very variable and dependant on the individual and how much is required for the results. However on average I use 1ml (0.5ml each side) for a nice subtle cheek augmentation using juvéderm voluma. Hope this helps!Best wishes,Dr Rupert
Each patient is different in the treatment they require. That being said, I like to start out with one syringe of Voluma and split it, using .5 on each cheek. For a subtle, natural result, I like to start with using small amounts and building over time, rather than using too much and being stuck with an over done, or unnatural look. Make sure Voluma is the right filler for you. Some people may benefit from different types of injections, so it important to be well educated by a Physician who performs many injections and who is a certified injector.
Thank you for your question on cheek augmentation with Voluma. Juvederm Voluma is a smooth, dense product that is FDA approved formid-face volumization and has been found to last up to 2 years. It isinjected deeply, right over the cheekbone to give support and lift to themid-face. We place Voluma starting with the upper, lateral cheek as thisprovides the best lift to the mid-face (including naso-labial folds). This technique results in a higher, more rounded and youthful curve tothe face and can even help improve the look of the under eye ("teartrough") area as well as corners of the mouth. The amount of Voluma used varies from patient to patient,depending on their age, quality of skin, volume loss, and sagging. Anaverage of one per syringe per side is very common, but some patients may needmore and some less (eg a more deflated balloon requires a greater amount of airfor reinflation compared to one that's lost very little air). It's important to seek out an experienced, qualified injector whohas extensive experience in order to achieve your best and safest result. Inour office, we have Master Injectors who are experts in the most advancedinjection techniques - giving our patients excellent, natural-looking outcomes.
Every patient is different. Some have significant volume loss, particularly older patients, that may require 2-3 cc per cheek. Younger patients may be able to get away with only 1-2 cc divided between the two cheeks. Most patients will need 1-2 cc per cheek to see a significant difference. I also believe that adding more product increases the longevity.All the best,
