Top Benefits of Juvederm Volbella

Juvederm, one of the top brands in dermal fillers, has many different products to help improve your appearance using hyaluronic acid. Dermal fillers can be used to smooth lines and wrinkles, add volume to the lips or reduce hollows under the eyes. Knowing the right product for the area you want to treat is vital to getting the results you desire. One of the popular products by Juvederm is Volbella, which offers these cosmetic benefits for the lips:

  • Reduce lines and wrinkles. When the skin on the lips and around lips lose volume, wrinkles occur. Juvederm Volbella can gently plump under the skin, smoothing lines and wrinkles on and around the lips for a more youthful appearance.
  • Softer, natural lips. Volbella has a softer feel than many other dermal fillers, creating fuller lips that feel more natural.
  • Definition. The small chain molecules of hyaluronic acid in Volbella help create the definition that is so important in lip enhancement. The filler stays in place through quick integration with the skin and can help create the beautiful cupid’s bow, which so many women prefer.
  • Longer-lasting effects. While some dermal fillers can begin to diminish in six short months, requiring another treatment, Volbella can last up to 12 months or longer.

Juvederm Volbella has become one of the favorite dermal fillers for adding lip volume and definition. It is also popular for improving tear troughs. If you are interested in learning more about the line of Juvederm products or undergoing Volbella treatment for fuller lips, contact a local facial plastic surgeon that offers Juvederm injection treatments. This ensures you get medically-trained professionals for the best results.

Temporary vs Permanent Lip Augmentation

Lips are the outline of your smile, the pout when you’re sad, and an important part of your facial appearance. Lips that are full are equated with sensuality and youthful attractiveness, but not everyone has the plump, defined lips they prefer. Cosmetic treatments can help add volume to lips either temporarily or permanently. Here are the differences between the options available if you are considering lip augmentation.

Temporary Lip Volume

There are two main options to temporarily add volume to your lips: dermal fillers and fat injections. Dermal fillers can be injected to add volume to lips for anywhere from six months to over a year. Fillers can plump the lips and smooth lines and wrinkles around the mouth. Fat injections adds your own transferred fat to thicken lips, but it only lasts about six months. Both options need to be repeated to maintain the results.

Permanent Lip Enhancements

For permanent changes to your lips, plastic surgery can be performed. To add volume, implants or fat grafting can be performed to permanently augment the lips. Surgery can also be used to create a more pronounced Cupid’s bow or change the shape of the lips. The results will not go away, so repeated procedures are not needed to keep the appearance.

Temporary cosmetic procedures are a great way to “try on” more volume for your lips. But, if you want to change the shape or get long-lasting volume, plastic surgery is the best option. Experienced facial plastic surgeons can offer both procedures to help you get the lips you desire, whether you want to try a temporary filler or undergo permanent cosmetic surgery.
