Hello, this is Woori Plastic Surgery.
As facial volume decreases or wrinkles become deeper, many people think about improving volume. In many cases, filler procedures come to mind, but there are also many people who hesitate because they are concerned about unnatural changes or an overly pronounced look.
Amid these concerns, interest in Juvéderm Volume has recently been growing as a method that focuses on natural-looking changes. Today, let’s look at what kind of procedure Juvéderm Volume is and how it differs from fillers.
What kind of procedure is Juvéderm Volume?
Juvéderm is a collagen booster based on PDLLA ingredients.
After being injected into the skin, it stimulates collagen production and works in a way that gradually restores volume over time. Its 특징 is that it does not directly fill space with an external substance, but instead creates change through the skin itself.
The injected ingredient is absorbed after a certain period of time, and the collagen formed in this process helps support the skin and may help maintain volume.
It is also divided into types depending on particle size, and the Juvéderm Volume type is used when the goal is to improve volume in sunken areas.
How is it different from fillers?
Fillers create volume at the moment of injection. They are characterized by the ability to bring immediate changes to the desired area, but in some cases, they can feel unnatural as they emphasize fullness.
By contrast, Juvéderm Volume goes through the process of collagen formation, so rather than showing changes immediately after the procedure, it gradually changes over time. In general, it shows a natural increase in volume over the course of 1 to 3 months.
Rather than creating instant volume, it can be seen as a method that is closer to improving overall elasticity and density at the same time.
How do the selection criteria for procedures differ?
The duration of Juvéderm Volume and the extent of change can vary depending on an individual’s skin condition and the degree of collagen production. In general, the gradually formed volume is maintained for a certain period of time, and if needed, it can be supplemented with additional procedures.
Fillers also differ in duration depending on the product type and an individual’s metabolic rate, so it is difficult to say conclusively that one lasts longer than the other.
What matters most is the direction of the desired change.
If you want fast and distinct changes, fillers may be a better fit. If you want gradually increasing volume and improved elasticity, Juvéderm Volume may be more suitable.
Setting a direction while considering your current skin condition, the degree of hollowness, and the image you want can help improve satisfaction.
Juvéderm Volume is not simply a method for filling volume, but a procedure that induces natural changes through collagen formation in the skin.
Because its mechanism of action and the flow of change differ from fillers, it is important to establish the right direction through sufficient consultation in order to choose the method that suits you.
If you are concerned about natural-looking volume improvement, please first check your current condition accurately and then plan the appropriate method.
