JUVEDERM VOLUMA VS JUVEDERM ULTRA XC
Juvederm Voluma XC is the newest non-surgical filler from Allergan–the makers of Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus XC, and Botox. It’s becoming a very popular option for many clients. The first question we always hear is “What is the difference between Juvederm Voluma and other fillers?” There are three main differences between Voluma and other HA fillers such as Juvederm Ultra XC, Restylane and Perlane.
Texture
When comparing Juvederm Voluma vs Juvederm Ultra XC, you would notice that the texture of Ultra is similar to pudding while the texture of Voluma is closer to Jello. This thicker texture gives the new filler its unique lifting properties and also leads to differences in where it can be placed in the face.
Placement
Voluma is specifically designed to be injected deep in the dermis and to lay right on top of your facial bones. This ability to sit deep and stay in place is exactly what makes Voluma useful for particular injection sites and treatment outcomes. Voluma works best when it’s injected into the upper cheek or middle cheek or the chin. Although other Dermal Fillers can be used, Voluma has the advantage of having longer lasting properties.
List of Common Juvederm Voluma Injections Sites:
- Cheeks (upper cheeks and mid cheek)
- Jowls
- Chin
Voluma will not be used under the eyes, in the lips or along the nasolabial folds (those lines going between the corners of your mouth and your nose). All of those injection sites require a thinner, more moldable filler to smoothly lay into the contour of your face.
List of Injection Sites Juvederm Voluma WILL NOT be Used For:
- Lips
- Under the eyes
- Nasolabial folds
Longevity
How long does Juvederm Voluma last? According to Allergan, under optimal conditions the filler can last up to two years. Conditions vary, but it’s safe to say that you’ll get a longer lasting result from a Voluma treatment than some of your other filler options.
Average Cost of Juvederm Voluma
According to the “Real Patient Reviews” at Realself.com, the national average Juvederm Voluma price is $1,400, the average cost in New England area is $1000/syringe.
Open Talk About Dysport
BREAK THE ICE ON A CONVERSATION ABOUT TREATING FROWN LINES AND FEAR OF THE FROZEN LOOK
“People aren’t talking about it openly, so they don’t have the opportunity to learn about all their options for treating frown lines, including Dysport®, which is a great choice for many people interested in looking their best, with natural-looking results.”
74% of Women and Men Would Be More Interested in Treatment If Results Looked Natural, According to New Survey
FORT WORTH, Texas – April 12, 2016 – Despite injectable treatments like Dysport®* (abobotulinumtoxinA) and professional techniques that enable natural- looking results, concerns and misperceptions are still holding women and men back from treating frown lines between the eyebrows. Despite reporting that a person with frown lines between the eyebrows looks stressed (39%), old (36%) and even angry (24%) and many realizing their face looks older than they feel, few are taking action to learn about treatment options that have natural-looking results. Less than 40% of Americans said they would be comfortable talking about their interest in treatment with a healthcare specialist.
The survey also showed digital technology has transformed Americans’ perceptions of facial aging. More than 70% of respondents report the use of technology made them realize their face looks older than they feel. For many, these digital wake-up calls – seeing themselves in selfies (43%), tagged photos (33%) on social media or “Throwback Thursday” posts (33%) – make it hard to ignore their frown lines. Of the individuals polled in the Break the Ice survey, a majority (64%) have noticed frown lines between their eyebrows as they age, first seeing these lines on average at age 34.
Additionally, 77% reported noticing frown lines on others, such as their friends, family members and coworkers. A surprising 74% reported thinking about their face looking older one or more days a week. Men and women are more aware of their frown lines when they catch a glimpse of themselves in the mirror (70%) and get ready in the morning (56%). “Knowing that so many people worry every week about their frown lines between the eyebrows, but that so few are comfortable discussing treatment options – even with a healthcare specialist like myself – is unfortunate,” said Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank, a dermatologist in New York City. “No one should have frown lines that bother them when an injectable treatment option like Dysport® can provide natural-looking results.”
Dermal Filler without brusing, pain or down time using Microcannulas
The use of cannula for facial enhancement has been quite popular in Europe for several years and now has become favored in the United States. The blunt tip provides a great number of advantages and is an alternative to sharp tipped needles.
Cannula is a small, blunt and flexible needle, it simplifies the filler injection process by requiring fewer punctures, it has the ability to cover a greater area in a single treatment. One or two entry points with the cannula can fill approximately half of a patient’s face, versus the sharp tip needle which requires multiple penetrations and covers less area.
This alone, reduces the length of the procedure as well as the discomfort and potential trauma associated with it. Patients experience less bleeding, swelling and bruising at the injection sites as the blunt tip of the cannula pushes the blood vessels aside instead of puncturing them, decreasing the downtime significantly. Patients are able to return to normal activities almost immediately.
Cosmetic Filler Injections Dermasculpt ® microcannulas are used to administer facial fillers, such as Restylane®, Juvederm®, Perlane®, Radiesse® and Sculptra® to alleviate patient discomfort and maximize results. Dermasculpt® is being credited as the most important innovation in the field since the invention of the HA fillers. The mechanical stimulation of fibroblast generates new collagen which is triggered by the Dermasculpt® microcannula’s back and forth motion. It allows the practitioner to literally sculpt the skin, recreating volume and erasing wrinkles and folds.
The main benefits of using Dermasculpt® microcannulas are: • virtually no bruising • considerably less pain • single point of entry for wider coverage • production of new collagen Contact Age Perfectly for your appointment!
