Juvéderm Volbella® XC

Lips are one of the first indicators of age. As we age, our lips may begin to thin and the area between the upper lip and nose can lengthen. Enhancing your lips to a plumper appearance and reducing the appearance of vertical lines will help restore a youthful look. Juvéderm Volbella XC can revive your lips to without appearing unnatural. For all-encompassing cosmetic procedures and Gainesville plastic surgery, consult Dr. Poser at Poser Plastic Surgery Center.

How Long Do Lip Injections Last?

After a period of time, the hyaluronic acid will break down and be absorbed into surrounding tissues. However, positive effects may remain for up to twice the amount of time traditional collagen treatments. A significant portion of our patients who receive lip injections of Juvéderm Volbella XC experience improved satisfaction with their overall lips as well as increased volume to vertical lines on the lips one year following initial treatment. When treated with Juvéderm Volbella XC one year following initial treatment, patients often require less product to achieve their desired results.
