What is JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA®?
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC is a crystal-clear gel that is injected directly into and around the lips using an ultra-fine needle to temporarily plump the lips for lip augmentation and to smooth the appearance of lines around the mouth. The lidocaine gel improves the comfort of the injection by reducing sensitivity to pain.
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC can also be used to add volume to improve the appearance of undereye hollowing. Undereye hollows are depressed, sunken, or hollow areas below the eyes that contribute to a tired-looking appearance.
How long does JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® last?
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC lasts up to 1 year, with optimal treatment.
What are the potential side effects of JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA®?
The most common side effects included temporary reactions at the treatment site such as tenderness, swelling, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, pain, redness, discoloration, and itching.
