Volbella

What Should I Expect after Volbella?

Volbella results are immediate, and their full impact is recognized within 7 days, once any redness and swelling dissipated. Clients typically notice that their mouth looks fuller, more defined and naturally symmetrical with other facial features. Fine lines and wrinkles also are less noticeable. Lips appear youthful, hydrated, soft and natural. One treatment is often enough to obtain excellent results, however, some clients do require a follow up visit to fully reach their goals. Treatment results often last a year before subsequent visits are necessary.

What Does a Volbella Treatment Consist of?

As with most hyaluronic acid fillers, only minimal preparation is necessary prior to your Volbella treatment session. During your initial consultation, any specifics will be discussed so you have a clear understanding about how to prepare. Most individuals can follow their normal daily routine prior to coming to our facility for their treatment. Eat and drink as normal, and be sure to hydrate well before your appointment. Minimize the potential for bruising by discontinuing any aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, flax seed, vitamin D, vitamin E, ginko or garlic one week prior to your appointment. Smoking also increases your risk of bruising. If you are taking a prescription blood thinner, your risk of bruising is also greater, however, we do not advise discontinuing such medications even temporarily unless your prescribing doctor recommends such.

A typical Volbella treatment session takes about 30 minutes. It is a safe and effective outpatient procedure meaning you can go home or return to work or other activities immediately following your session at Adam and Eve Medical Aesthetics Scottsdale. One of our artistic and professional injectors will cleanse your skin, mark the injection sites and begin the treatment. Volbella contains a small amount of lidocaine, and the filler is injected using a very fine needle. As a result, any discomfort is typically minimal and temporary. Most patients report only feeling a slight pinching sensation.

After your procedure, avoid any strenuous exercise as this can increase swelling. Soreness and bruising is a normal side effect and only temporary. To help with any mild discomfort you might experience, use an ice pack or take Tylenol. For your first night of sleep, prop your head using a pillow to minimize any opportunities for bruising. Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat for a few days following treatment. Adam and Eve Medical Aesthetics Scottsdale will follow up with you in the first week after treatment.
