It is said that the jawline is one of the most defining features of the face. Unfortunately, not all of us were born with a chiseled jawline to frame and highlight the rest of our facial features. In some cases, it can also be the result of aging. For those individuals with a less-than-perfect jawline, dermal fillers have become a popular alternative to cosmetic surgery to strengthen and define the jawline. Now there is a new addition to the Juvederm family of fillers – Juvederm Volux XC. So, if you’ve been looking in the mirror wishing or wondering how to get a chiseled jawline, we have the solution. Vive Aesthetic and Wellness is proud to be one of the first Juvederm providers in the US to offer Volux XC.
What is Juvederm Volux XC?
Volux XC is a safe and effective dermal filler that contains hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in our skin. It is the first and only HA filler to be approved for improvement of the jawline. Volux XC’s volumizing technology can be the perfect solution for individuals looking to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe jawline imperfections.
Volux XC is injected into the jawline using an ultra-fine needle. In addition to hyaluronic acid, the clear gel filler contains a small amount of lidocaine to prevent any discomfort during treatment. The volume provided by the newest addition to the Juvederm collection increases the contour and structure of the lower face. The result is a natural-looking, more defined jawline.
Wait…There’s More
Juvederm Volux XC is also effective for jowl reduction. Lax or sagging jowls are often the result of aging. Meant only for the treatment of individuals aged 21 years or older, Volux XC can reduce this by creating a smooth contour along the jawline, giving your face a more youthful appearance.
What to Expect
The treatment time for this jawline-defining treatment varies depending on the amount of Volux XC require to achieve the desired results. This is determined by your provider during your initial consultation. On average, treatment time is approximately 30 minutes.
There could be a few days of social downtime. You may experience minor swelling and redness at or surrounding the injection site, very similar to other Juvederm fillers. Ice is recommended to alleviate this which will dissipate throughout the day. Many individuals return to work or other normal activities immediately following treatment.
How Long Do the Results Last?
Jawline definition and jowl reduction results created by Juvedern Volux XC are not permanent. However, clinical studies have shown that on average, results lasted approximately one year. Results varied depending on the individual and in some cases, a touch-up treatment was necessary to achieve the desired improvement. If necessary, touch-up injections are typically administered one month after the initial treatment.
Not Just For Men
While the term “chiseled jawline” may evoke a more masculine vision, women can also benefit from Volux XC injections. Increased definition of the jawline or reduction of the jowls can significantly enhance feminine facial features and reduce signs of aging.
