JUVÉDERM VOLUX™ in Maryland

JUVÉDERM® VOLUX™ is quickly gaining attention as a cutting-edge option for those who seek facial rejuvenation without going under the knife. This innovative injectable is designed to give you a more youthful and refreshed appearance by sculpting and contouring your facial features. With Dr. Rachel Cappuccino's skilled hands, as well as our dedicated team of nurses, you can look forward to a personalized approach tailored to enhance your desired look.

What Is JUVÉDERM® VOLUX™?

This dermal filler enhances your facial features with hyaluronic acid gel, a naturally occurring substance in your body. VOLUX™ is particularly effective at adding volume and definition to your chin and jawline, giving you a more balanced and youthful appearance.

The process is simple: Dr. Cappuccino or one of our nurse injectors will injects VOLUX™ into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The gel then binds with water molecules in your skin, providing immediate volume and lift. Over time, your body naturally metabolizes the hyaluronic acid, so results are temporary but can last up to two years.

Am I a Good Candidate?

When considering VOLUX™ as a treatment option, here are some factors that can help you decide if you're a good candidate:

Age: Individuals between 30 and 60 are considered ideal candidates for this treatment.
Skin elasticity: Those with good skin elasticity and facial muscle tone are likelier to experience optimal results.
Health: You should be in good overall health, with no underlying medical conditions that could affect your healing process or increase the risk of complications.

Benefits of JUVÉDERM® VOLUX™

Some of the benefits you may experience with VOLUX™ include the following:

Enhanced volume, definition, and projection: It helps sculpt and sharpen your jawline's contour and can add volume to your chin and cheeks to improve facial harmony and balance.

Natural-looking, long-lasting results: As a hyaluronic acid-based filler, VOLUX™ integrates seamlessly into the skin, adding volume to your facial tissues, with results that can last up to 18-24 months.

Non-surgical treatment: Since VOLUX™ is a non-invasive procedure, you can avoid the risks and lengthy recovery times associated with surgery, making it a flexible option for busy patients.

Safety: JUVÉDERM® is a reputable and well-known brand of dermal fillers, ensuring that you receive a high-quality, safe product. Having the treatment administered by a qualified and experienced specialist, such as Dr. Cappuccino, provides the best results and minimizes potential risks.

How Does The Procedure Work?

Preparation: Dr. Cappuccino or one of our nurses will cleanse the area to be treated and may apply a numbing cream for your comfort.
Injection: Then she'll carefully inject the VOLUX™ gel into the designated areas using a fine needle.
Massage: Lastly, she may gently massage the treated area to ensure the even distribution of the gel.

The entire procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the treated area.

Aftercare

To ensure optimal results and minimize any potential side effects, follow these aftercare recommendations:

Avoid touching the treated area for six hours. After this time, you may gently cleanse the area with soap and water.
Minimize exposure to extensive sun or heat for the first few days. Use sunblock if you do need to be outdoors.

Refrain from consuming alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment.
Postpone any strenuous exercise or activities for the first two days following the procedure.
Schedule follow-up appointments with Dr. Cappuccino to assess your results and discuss future treatments.
Some common side effects of JUVÉDERM® VOLUX™ might include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These should subside within a couple of days.

Results from VOLUX™

Overall, the results of VOLUX™ are often described as natural-looking and long-lasting, with patients achieving a more defined and rejuvenated chin and jawline. These results typically last 18-24 months, an extended duration due to the filler's unique formulation, designed to provide structural support and volume in the targeted areas. The hyaluronic acid-based gel VOLUX™ gradually breaks down over time, allowing for a gradual return to the pre-treatment state. Regular maintenance treatments can help sustain the desired outcome beyond the initial duration.

Can JUVÉDERM VOLUX™ be combined with other injectables or treatments?

Yes, VOLUX™ can be effectively combined with other treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Many patients pair VOLUX™ with neuromodulators like BOTOX or DAXXIFY to address both volume loss and dynamic wrinkles.

What makes JUVÉDERM VOLUX™ different from other JUVÉDERM fillers?

VOLUX™ is specifically formulated with a firmer, more robust gel consistency designed for structural support in the jawline and chin area. Unlike softer JUVÉDERM products intended for lips or fine lines, VOLUX™ provides the projection and definition needed to sculpt and contour the lower face, making it uniquely suited for creating a more chiseled, defined appearance.

Is there any downtime after JUVÉDERM VOLUX™ injections?

Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to work and normal activities immediately following their VOLUX™ treatment. While some temporary swelling, redness, or bruising may occur at the injection sites, these side effects typically resolve within a few days and can be easily concealed with makeup if needed.

How soon will I see results from my VOLUX™ treatment?

You'll notice immediate volume and definition following your VOLUX™ injection. However, final results become fully apparent within 2-4 weeks once any initial swelling subsides and the hyaluronic acid fully integrates with your facial tissues.

Can JUVÉDERM VOLUX™ be reversed if I'm not satisfied with my results?

Yes, one advantage of hyaluronic acid-based fillers like VOLUX™ is that they can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if needed. While our experienced team takes great care to achieve your desired outcome, this reversibility provides peace of mind knowing that adjustments can be made if necessary.

What is the difference between using a needle versus a cannula for VOLUX™ injections?

Both techniques can be effective for administering VOLUX™. Fine needles allow precise placement and are often used for targeted definition, while cannulas (blunt-tipped instruments) can reduce bruising and enable smoother product distribution.

Are there any medical conditions or medications that would prevent me from getting VOLUX™?

Certain conditions may make you unsuitable for VOLUX™ treatment, including active skin infections, bleeding disorders, or allergies to hyaluronic acid. Additionally, if you're taking blood-thinning medications or supplements, you may have an increased risk of bruising.

How do I maintain my VOLUX™ results for as long as possible?

While VOLUX™ naturally metabolizes over 18-24 months, you can help extend your results by maintaining a stable weight, staying well-hydrated, protecting your skin from sun damage, and following a comprehensive skincare routine.
