Volume loss is one of the primary reasons why the face can appear older. As you age, you lose facial volume, especially in your mid-face. Your cheeks get flatter, and skin that was once full of youthful volume starts to droop and sag.
Juvéderm Voluma XC is an exciting facial injectable treatment option available at Chernoff Cosmetic Surgery in Santa Rosa, CA. Juvéderm Voluma is an advanced dermal filler designed to add volume, lift and contour to the cheek area.
For many years, Dr. Greg Chernoff has led the way in using dermal fillers at his Facial Center of Excellence in Santa Rosa where he offers a variety of fillers including the Juvéderm® collection of dermal fillers which includes Juvéderm Voluma XC, Juvéderm® XC and Ultra XC, Juvéderm Vollure™ XC, and Juvéderm Volbella® XC.

What Is Juvéderm Voluma XC
Hyaluronic acid fillers have become popular soft tissue filler augmentation agents over the years. Over time, the cosmetic dermal filler companies have developed customized injectables to address target specific areas of the face. Juvéderm Voluma XC is one such facial filler that is FDA-approved to add volume beneath the skin’s surface, which provides lift and contour to the cheek area.
Juvéderm Voluma XC is primarily made from a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally-occurring complex sugar found in the human body, and it’s what gives your skin its ability to hold onto moisture. HA adapts to each person’s unique skin qualities to make your more voluminous cheeks look as beautiful as ever.
Juvéderm Voluma XC uses a new advanced technology from Allergan® which is called Vycross® that results in a smooth gel that flows. This patented cross-linking technology produces the lift and fill that contributes to Voluma’s long-lasting natural-looking results.*
Everyone can benefit from Juvéderm Voluma, regardless of their skin type. This is a safe treatment that has been reviewed and approved by the FDA as a non-surgical way to treat facial volume loss.
Who Is An Ideal Candidate For Juvéderm Voluma XC?
Men and women looking for a non-surgical way to reverse mid-face volume loss and restoring their face to a more youthful contour may be a good candidate for Juvéderm Voluma XC. This filler was specially designed and is FDA-approved to fill and lift the mid-face and cheeks.
One of the major aesthetic advantages of Juvéderm Voluma XC is the fact that the positive changes it makes in your appearance have been shown to last for up to two years.*
