Juvederm Volite Skinbooster

Juvederm Volite skinbooster is the latest range of hyaluronic acid skinbooster launched by Juvederm. It is an innovative hyaluronic acid product designed to improve skin hydration, skin elasticity, and nourish the skin from the inside out for up to 9 months.

How is the procedure performed?

 

The Juvederm Volite skinbooster involves a series of micro-injections of long-lasting hyaluronic acid throughout the skin area. The treatment area is first applied with an anaesthetic cream. After considerable anaesthesia has set in, detailed injections of the product using ultra-fine needles are done to ensure correct depth placement of the product throughout the skin. Juvederm Volite is made up of hyaluronic acid molecules mildy cross-linked through the patented Vycross Technology. It absorbs water, and bring deep hydration to the treated areas, as well as conferring elasticity, glow, and firmness.

Individuals who experience dry skin, fine lines, fine wrinkles, and mild skin laxity on their face, neck and back of hands can benefit from this procedure. Those with good skin who want to preserve their youthful looks may also consider Juvederm Volite as a preventive treatment against skin ageing.

Which areas can be treated with Volite skinbooster?

  • Full face for radiance and hydration

  • Lip and perioral regions for hydration and volume

  • Neck and neck lines for rejuvenation and softening

  • Back of hands for rejuvenation

  • Any areas of acne scarring for texture improvement

  • Chest décolletage for hydration and texture improvement

What is the difference between Volite skinbooster and other skinbooster treatments?

Traditional skinbooster injections offered in the market requires 3 injection sessions over a period of 2-3 months, and require a repeat of the whole process within 6 months. On the other hand, Juvederm Volite, through its unique molecular stability, requires only 1 injection session and results can last 6-9 months. This translates to more convenience, lesser downtime, and longer lasting results.

FAQs

  • The procedure can take around 15-30 minutes, depending on the areas injected. The longer part is the preparation phase of the procedure. The patient will have her face cleansed before application of an anesthetic cream on the intended treatment regions for 45 minutes. Subsequently, the anesthetic cream will be removed and the face cleansed and disinfected before commencement of the procedure.

  • An anesthetic cream will be applied throughout the areas to be treated prior to commencement. During the treatment, Juvederm Volite is administered through tiny needles to reduce the discomfort. With incorporation of pain-reduction protocols during the treatment, the whole procedure is very tolerable.

  • Downtime mostly consists of injection marks. These marks will resolve over the next 1-3 days, and patients can choose to conceal them if needed.

  • Common side effects are related to the site of injection, and these include bruising, redness, swelling, pain and tenderness. Longer term side effects like infection at treatment sites is usually a failure to adhere to proper sterile procedural techniques and rules.

That is why we always emphasise the need to only do this procedure with a qualified practitioner in a reputable clinic environment.

    a concurrent illness
    a concurrent skin infection
    if you are taking any medications that increases your risk of bleeding
