What is Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine Used For?

Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine is specifically formulated to improve facial structure and add volume. It is used to treat fine lines, medium-sized skin depressions, enhance lip volume, and correct structural defects in the lips.

How Does Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine Work?

Hyaluronic acid, a natural hydrating sugar molecule, is vital for maintaining skin hydration and health. It supports collagen production and cell function. However, as we age, the body’s production of hyaluronic acid diminishes, leading to drier, weaker skin that sags and wrinkles. Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine aims to combat these aging signs. Developed using patented Vycross Technology, the cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel ensures longer-lasting results by minimizing water attraction from surrounding tissues, reducing noticeable swelling. This advanced formulation also prolongs the gel’s presence in the body, providing patients with youthful, rejuvenated skin and fuller lips for an extended period.

How to Inject Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine

Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine should only be administered by a licensed medical practitioner. Before proceeding, ensure a thorough review of the patient’s medical history and any recent skin treatments (such as dermabrasion or skin lifting) to minimize adverse reactions. Educate the patient on potential contraindications and side effects. The treatment area should be thoroughly disinfected before injecting the filler into the dermis or lip mucous membrane. Avoid injecting into areas that are injured, inflamed, or infected. After injection, gently massage the area to ensure even distribution of the filler.

Duration of Results

Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine provides results that can last up to 12 months with a single treatment, thanks to its slow metabolism in the body. Regular maintenance treatments may be necessary to sustain optimal results.

Is Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine Safe?

Juvederm Volbella with Lidocaine is highly safe, manufactured under sterile conditions. However, it is contraindicated for certain individuals, including:

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women
• Individuals with known hypersensitivity to lidocaine, hyaluronic acid, or gram-positive bacterial proteins
• Individuals prone to keloid formation
