Dermal fillers are increasingly becoming popular because they address facial aging in a way other injectable treatments can not.
The Juvederm line of products is a leader in hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. These fillers are made by Allergan, the same company that makes Botox. One of the products in the family is Juvederm Vollure. Continue reading to learn everything there is to know about Juvederm Vollure.
Juvederm Vollure is an FDA-approved injectable dermal filler that contains hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that is present in abundant quantities throughout the body, especially the skin. Vollure is a clear, gel-like substance that can be safely injected into the skin.
Schedule an appointmentYou do not need to do anything specific leading up to your Vollure filler appointment. However, you should ensure that you get treatment from a licensed medical provider in your area. Here at the Beauty Barn, our providers will examine and discuss your skin concerns during the consultation. Together you will make a plan to reach your aesthetic facial goals.
The hyaluronic acid in Vollure is a hydrophilic substance, i.e., it attracts water. When it is injected into areas where fine lines, wrinkles, creases, and folds are present, Vollure fills and corrects these skin imperfections.
In particular, Vollure is very effective in correcting prominent nasolabial folds. The nasolabial folds are the creases that extend from the corners of the mouth to the nose on either side. With age, the nasolabial folds tend to become deeper due to the repetitive movement of facial muscles.
Deep and prominent nasolabial folds can give the face an aged appearance, and Vollure can correct this problem as well as smile lines and laugh lines around the mouth.
A dermal filler treatment with Vollure is pretty straightforward. Your provider will clean your skin and inject Vollure with very fine needles into target areas. All the dermal fillers in the Juvederm family, including Vollure, contain lidocaine (a numbing agent) as one of the ingredients. This helps to make the injections less uncomfortable for patients. The entire treatment process takes less than an hour. There is no downtime, and you can return home and do all normal activities the same day.

Vollure results are noticeable immediately after the injections. Your skin will continue to improve over the next week or two as the hyaluronic acid filler settles in the skin tissues and any minor swelling subsides.
The results obtained from Vollure dermal filler are long-lasting, but they are not permanent. At 6 months out, roughly 80% of patients are pleased with the results. At 18 months out, roughly 60% of patients are happy with the treatment.
In most patients, Vollure effects last about 18 months, at which time a maintenance filler treatment can be done.
It is worth noting that the duration of results from Vollure is significantly longer than some other types of wrinkle treatments like Botox, which usually lasts up to 4 months.
Common side effects of all dermal fillers, including Vollure, are injection-related, including mild bruising, swelling, and discomfort in the treated area. These symptoms are temporary and usually subside within a couple of days.
In the hands of a licensed, experienced provider, Vollure dermal filler injections are safe, and the risk of adverse effects is low.
All three products – Vollure, Voluma, and Volbella – belong to the Juvederm family and are made by the same company. Each of these dermal fillers has been developed to address specific concerns. Vollure is indicated to fill deep nasolabial folds and smile lines surrounding the lips. Voluma is used in the cheeks and chin, and Volbella is recommended to restore volume in the lips and under the eyes. Your medical provider here at The Beauty Barn will help you decide which one of these products is best suited for your concerns. They may even recommend a combination of fillers.
Vollure is one of the newest facial fillers on the market. It features a cutting-edge Vycross technology which makes it more stable and prevents it from being broken down quickly by the body, thereby prolonging the results. Also, Vollure is lighter and more fluid than some other types of dermal fillers, which means the results are more natural-looking. Essentially, Vollure hits the sweet spot – it is firm enough to fill lines and creases but soft enough to allow natural facial expressions.
If you feel that your face has started developing some lines, wrinkles, and folds, a filler treatment with Vollure can correct these concerns and soften your appearance.
