What’s the secret ingredient to youthful, plump skin? Hyaluronic acid! Our bodies naturally produce hyaluronic acid, however, as we age our bodies will slow both hyaluronic acid and collagen production. Coincidentally, Juvederm® XC and Juvederm® Voluma XC are Hyaluronic acid based injectable fillers that can help to resore lost volume to the face.
Juvederm® XC
Juvederm® XC fills the soft tissue of the facial dermis for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds such as laugh lines, smile lines, and “parenthesis” lines. The results are a softer look where wrinkles and lines are filled in and become less noticeable.
Juvéderm® Voluma XC
Juvéderm® Voluma XC was the first injectable gel that instantly adds volume to your cheek area to lift and fill age-related volume loss in patients over the age of 21. It can create a more youthful contour and lifted look for up to two years.
Which One is Right for Me?
Depending on your aesthetic goals, you may benefit from both or just one. If you are still relatively young but you are starting to see lines around the mouth that stick around even when your face is resting, then Juvederm® XC can soften the appearance of these lines. Juvederm® Voluma is used for an entirely different area of the face and uses hyaluronic acid and VYCROSS technology to give the cheeks a smooth and lifted appearance.
