Voluma is a dermal filler that works very well in the restoration of facial contours, especially because of its highly cross-linked hyaluronic acid molecular structure. This structure forms a stable support network within tissues, maintaining results for 18-24 months, compared to the 3-6 months that are usually realized with uncross-linked hyaluronic acid. The highly cross-linked HA resists rapid enzymatic degradation once injected, thus assuring sustained filling and support in soft tissues, a situation which effectively addresses contour loss in sunken facial areas.
With deep injections, Voluma can be delivered precisely to the periosteum in order to give deep structural support for deep-seated soft tissue volume deficiencies. This will definitely restore around 30%-35% of facially lost volume and will be really helpful in correcting sunken cheeks, camouflaging the jawline. Moreover, in over 90% of the patients, highly significantly positive results were reported within one week of injection and 87% retained full contour definition even after 18 months of the period.
Voluma is a dermal filler based on Vycrossâ„¢ cross-linking technology, where 10% high molecular weight HA is combined with 90% low molecular weight HA to produce a more stable and uniform cross-linked structure. This increases tissue permeability and resistance to degradation, while post-injection swelling is significantly reduced. Data indicates that less than 5% of cases with Voluma present mild swelling, compared to 15%-20% with conventional high molecular weight HA fillers.
Hyaluronic acid is an excellent water-binding bioactive agent; one gram of HA can absorb and retain 1,000 times its weight in water. Thus, Voluma restores facial volume and significantly improves hydration and elasticity in the area treated, enhancing overall skin quality. Data shows that more than 80% of users had noticeably improved skin elasticity, with a 12%-15% increase in hydration within four weeks of injection, leading to smooth, youthful skin.
Long-Lasting Effects
Voluma is well-recognized for its very durable and steady effect because of its highly cross-linked HA structure and Vycrossâ„¢ cross-linking technology. While regular HA fillers normally last from 6 to 12 months, the results of Voluma can last for 18-24 months, making it unique among similar products. The high cross-linking ratio develops a denser molecular network which slows down HA degradation, enabling users to enjoy a fuller facial contour for an extended period.
Studies have demonstrated that HA in Voluma not only has excellent resistance to breakdown but also retains soft tissue volume through molecular water-locking functions. Within six months of injection, its volume remains almost unchanged, while at 18 months, it retains 70%-75% of its initial effect. In comparison with other fillers, the volume retention rate of Voluma is about 30% higher, reducing the need for frequent touch-ups.
In addition, low molecular weight HA allows better tissue permeability for the filler to mingle with skin tissues and avoid problems of early uneven absorption and deformation. This provides excellent immediate sculpting with superior long-term support and natural transitions. It was indicated that more than 75% of users expressed a high level of satisfaction with results during the two-year follow-up, where facial lines remained smooth and did not change.
To extend the optimal effect with Voluma, one should keep the facial tissues hydrated, avoid extreme exercise, and stay away from extremely hot environments. These will help HA last longer in the body. In addition, since Voluma rarely presents any significant swelling, most people need only one touch-up session for long-lasting rejuvenation.
Rapid Recovery
The Voluma dermal filler provides shorter downtime, generally not affecting one’s daily life. This is highly because of the new Vycrossâ„¢ technology that limits large molecular aggregation, which means even distribution in tissues, therefore minimizing local irritation and swelling. Over 90% of users are able to return to normal activities within 24-48 hours after injection, with only a small number developing mild redness or bruising at the injection site.
The high-purity HA formula enhances tissue compatibility, reducing the possibility of allergic reactions and inflammation, enabling the body to quickly adapt to the filler. Data indicates that more than 85% of users had no significant discomfort within 1-2 days post-injection and could resume daily activities without special care. This is compared with traditional fillers, which can take 3-5 days or longer to recover from.
Voluma injections usually involve the use of fine needles or blunt cannulas, which further reduces trauma to tissues and enhances the precision of injections. Fine needles are applied for superficial injections, allowing precise modeling and minimizing subcutaneous wounds, while blunt cannulas are used for deeper fillings in order not to damage vessels and nerves, reducing the risk of bruising and bleeding. According to data presented, only 5% of patients who had blunt cannulas experienced mild bruising, while 15-20% did with traditional fine needles.
Besides, because of its highly cross-linked HA molecular structure, Voluma quickly stabilizes at the site of injection without allowing any irregular movements or diffusions. That means there will not be a need for fixation or prolonged compression after the injection to avoid secondary adjustments, which is common with the unstable positioning of the traditionally used fillers. This material gives the busy consumer a “walk-in, walk-out” convenience.
Improves Skin Elasticity
Voluma is a dermal filler that not only restores facial contours but also significantly enhances skin elasticity and firmness due to its hydrating and deep support properties from highly cross-linked HA. Because each gram of HA absorbs and retains 1,000 times its weight in water, it improves hydration in the injected area, making the skin plumper and more supple. It is shown that more than 80% of the subjects noticed an improvement in skin elasticity within four weeks of injection, with fine lines and dryness reduced, thus leaving the skin soft and firm to the touch.
After injection, Voluma forms a stable “scaffolding” under the skin, filling in the tissue defects and stimulating collagen production, thus further enhancing its anti-aging effects. It has been reported that repeated use of highly cross-linked HA can result in a 15-20% increase in the density of collagen fibers in the skin, thus being an effective management of skin laxity. This support is very strong in the cheeks and zygomatic areas, constituting it significantly reduces facial sag and is much fresher in general outline.
High molecular weight HA acts as a physical barrier in the subcutaneous layer, preventing moisture loss, while low molecular weight HA penetrates the dermis to promote deep hydration. This double mechanism of action offers long-lasting skin-barrier protection, effectively reducing dryness in the treated area. Data indicates that, within eight weeks following injection, there was a 12%-15% increase in skin moisture levels in users, thus sustaining smooth and refined skin quality over time.
No Surgical Risks
Voluma dermal filler is a non-surgical injection therapy; therefore, there are no incisions or anesthesia required, which hugely minimizes the risk of post-operative complications. Unlike traditional surgery, Voluma injections avoid bleeding, infection, and scarring issues. Data shows that over 95% of users experienced no severe adverse reactions after injection, with only a small number reporting mild redness or bruising that usually subsides within 24-48 hours.
Compered to surgical methods, which presuppose a long recovery period and are notably painful, Voluma injections cause minimal trauma, leaving only small puncture marks on the skin surface. Most users experience no considerable discomfort during injections, which rules out the necessity of sedatives or strong painkillers; almost 90% describe the procedure as comfortable.
Voluma uses ultrapure HA to simulate natural body components, ensuring no rejection reactions during absorption, and hence significantly less possibility of causing inflammation and the formation of nodules. Less than 1% of users reported hard lumps, whereas the complication rates arising from traditional facial filling surgeries have been 5%-10%.
Since Voluma does not include invasive surgery, users can schedule the injections flexibly without disrupting daily work or social life. The entire injection process takes about 30 minutes, and most people can resume normal activities immediately. This “walk-in, walk-out” convenience makes Voluma a top choice for those seeking nonsurgical anti-aging solutions.
