Why Our Faces Age
Fat thins out, cheekbones lose density and the production of collagen decreases. Then, gravity pulls this loose skin down toward the jaw. Dr. Tal Roudner is helping restore his patients’ youthful appearance with the FDA approved, award-winning injectable filler Juvederm Voluma® XC.
Juvederm® XC vs Juvederm Voluma® XC – What’s the Difference?
While Juvederm® XC is designed to smooth moderate to severe folds and wrinkles, such as the smile lines from the nose to the mouth, Juvederm Voluma® XC is designed to add volume to areas like the cheeks.
Juvederm Voluma® XC Lifts the Cheeks
Juvederm Voluma® XC is unique in that it adds volume to the cheeks, which leads to in a subtle lift. Results are instant and are clinically proven to last up to 2 years. Juvederm Voluma® XC is available to patients who are over the age of 21. Juvederm Voluma® XC is a filler that consists of hyaluronic acid (HA), which is a hydrating substance that is naturally found in the skin. As we age, the amount of hyaluronic acid in our skin decreases. This causes the skin to lose both structure and volume.
How it Works
When a surgical facelift is performed, the sagging cheek fat is repositioned. Although Juvederm Voluma® XC cannot reposition a patient’s cheek fat; its thick, cross-linked formula adds volume, thus restoring the contour of the midface that is lost due to aging.
