Juvederm Voluma filler based on hyaluronic acid with lidocaine 1 ml

Main characteristics of Juvederm Voluma filler based on hyaluronic acid with lidocaine 1 ml

The intradermal biodegradable implant is the second thickest of the Juvederm brand Vycross series. The thickest one is Volux, the lighter ones are Volbella and Volift (including the version with reduced Retouch syringe volume). 

The components of the gel for injection are:

• hyaluronic acid (20 mg/ml), cross-linked by the VYCROSS brand technology - HA molecules are 9 times smaller than usual, so the filler is more plastic and less hydrophilic;
• lidocaine (3 mg/ml), which relieves pain during skin puncture and gel injection into the derma. Keeping the client in a relaxed state facilitates the work of the cosmetologist and increases the effectiveness of the correction;
• phosphate buffer (pH 7.2), also reducing swelling after injections.

Hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, which is well accepted by skin tissues and does not cause allergic reactions, is used for the production of the preparation. The unique technology of cross-linking long and short hyaluronic chains makes the gel plastic and easy to work with, provides a natural effect on the one hand and slows down the biodegradation of the filler on the other.

Juvederm Voluma Injectable Bioimplant is available on our website in ready-to-use sterile syringes of 1 ml with 27G ½ needles, in a box of 2 syringes and 4 needles.
