VOLUMA - restoring face volume

VOLUMA

RETRIEVING YOUR FACIAL VOLUME

Some areas of our body are significantly exposed to fat loss. The disappearance of the volume particularly affects the intra-facial area (around the cheeks, cheekbones, corners of the lips and nasolabial regions). To a small extent this applies to the jaw and chin.

Volumetric facial restoration restores the lost volume and outline of the face and neck. During the treatment special preparations based on hyaluronic acid, characterized by high density, are used, or the so-called solid fillers. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia.

The combination of volumetric methods with the correction of wrinkles with low-density hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin are becoming an alternative to surgical face lifting.

The best aesthetic medicine clinics in the world carry out not only treatments to eliminate individual wrinkles, but also treatments to restore facial volume.

During the treatment, VOLUMA preparations are used. They are distinguished by a high density of hyaluronic acid. They are administered in deep parts of the skin, intended to restore the volume of the face. The effect is immediate and guarantees a natural look.
