What Is Volbella?

Volbella is an FDA-approved injectable in the Juvederm family that adds fullness to the lips. The lips get naturally thinner with age, but with the help of Volbella, New York City clients can restore lip volume. This hyaluronic acid (HA) based product can also smooth out perioral lip lines, also known as lipstick lines or smoker’s lines.

Is Volbella Right for Me?

Volbella injectable filler is perfect for patients with thin lips or downturned corners of their mouth. Patients with fine lines or superficial scarring around their mouth are also excellent candidates.

Volbella is perfect for patients ages 22 years and older who want to enhance their lip aesthetic. Candidates want to regain the curved shape of their lips, restore or enhance lip projection, and improve lip symmetry.

Good candidates are healthy and are not taking any blood-thinning medications.

They are not pregnant or allergic to lidocaine (an injectable anesthetic present in Volbella). Candidates must have realistic goals.

What to Expect During a Consultation

We will ask about your aesthetic goals for your lips. We will evaluate your medical records and examine your lips. To ensure that you are comfortable with the process, we will address all your concerns.

A specific treatment plan will be developed that can best achieve your goals. We will explain the treatment process, aftercare, and the cost.

What Happens During a Treatment Session?

The treatment session is quick and convenient. We will start by cleaning the lips and will then apply a topical numbing cream. Next, we will inject specific amounts of Volbella into the targeted areas.

What Is Aftercare Like?

There is no recovery process required after Volbella injections, and you can go back to normal activities after the treatment.

You will need to avoid heat and sun exposure for a time. It is important to stay hydrated and to moisturize your lips.

How Long Will Results Last?

You will be able to see an immediate increase in lip volume after treatment. Fine lines will also be filled. The results can last around one year, after which a follow-up treatment will be needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Medique's education and experience in plastic surgery contribute to allowing your providers to achieve better aesthetic results for patients?

No one knows the anatomy of the face and body better than a board-certified plastic surgeon and their team. Medique is not a spa made up of nurses with a non-existent MD director. It’s a team of plastic surgeons and physician associates, all qualified specialists in both invasive and non-invasive aesthetics.

From a patient experience perspective, (consultation, follow-up care, etc.), what are some things that would immediately stand out relative to going to a med spa owned/operated by a non MD business owner?

Complications can be avoided by searching for the correct provider to perform your procedure. Medique is where patients who want experts in plastic surgery caring for them come for care which is very different from an aesthetic injector (nurse, dentist, medical assistant) who has much less experience and knowledge.

How does Volbella differ from other Juvederm products?

Volbella, part of the Juvederm collection, is specifically designed for the lips and perioral area, focusing on subtle enhancement and smoothing of lip lines. Unlike other Juvederm products that target volume and contour in various facial areas, Volbella uses Vycross technology to provide a smooth, natural look and feel, ensuring your lips retain natural movement and softness.

How long do the effects of Volbella last?

The duration of Volbella's effects can vary based on individual factors, such as metabolism, lifestyle, and the specific area treated. Generally, patients can expect the results to last up to 12 months. Regular follow-up sessions can maintain the desired aesthetic.

Is a Volbella treatment painful, and what kind of anesthesia is used?

Patient comfort is paramount during Volbella treatments. Most patients report a mild sensation with minimal discomfort, thanks to the lidocaine in the product. Additionally, topical or local anesthesia may be used to ensure a comfortable experience throughout the procedure.

Can Volbella be combined with other cosmetic treatments?

Yes, Volbella can be part of a holistic treatment plan, complementing other non-invasive treatments such as Botox or skincare regimens. When combined thoughtfully, treatments can enhance overall facial aesthetics, providing a balanced and rejuvenated appearance.

How much does a Volbella treatment cost, and is it covered by insurance?

The cost of Volbella treatments varies depending on the treatment area and the amount of product used. Volbella is considered a cosmetic procedure and is typically not covered by insurance. Financing options and payment plans may be available to help manage the costs.

What Should I Expect During My First Volbella Treatment Session?

Your first session will begin with a consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals and review your medical history. The actual treatment is quick, usually taking less than an hour. Post-treatment, some patients may experience slight swelling or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days.
