What Is Voluma®?
Dermatologists at Snyder Dermatology are incredibly skilled and well-trained injectors with many years of experience who can help you accomplish the desired youthful look Voluma® can produce. Voluma® is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) filler used to restore volume and lift to the cheeks. Multiple factors contribute to the loss of volume in the cheeks, such as the natural pull of gravity, trauma, and inherited biology. Naturally, as our bodies age, wrinkles and the loss of fullness begin to form, creating an unflattering appearance. Voluma® is an HA filler gel that temporarily improves the deflated look of aged cheeks or naturally flat cheeks. The results produce a restored, youthful fullness to cheeks and it even improves fine lines around the nose and mouth. Voluma® is a product of the Juvéderm® family but targets different areas of the face.
Who Is a Candidate for Voluma®?
Ideal candidates for Voluma, a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler, typically include individuals seeking to address age-related volume loss in the cheeks and midface area. As we age, we naturally lose fat and collagen in the cheeks, leading to a sunken or hollow appearance. Voluma is specifically formulated to add volume and lift to the cheeks, restoring youthful contours and improving overall facial balance. Candidates may also desire enhancement of cheek definition and augmentation for a more sculpted and youthful appearance. Voluma is suitable for those in good overall health with realistic expectations for the results of the procedure. Consulting with a qualified healthcare provider can help determine if Voluma is the right treatment option for specific aesthetic goals and concerns.

I’ve had two different doctors and have been going to this office since 2021. I’ve had nothing but great experiences. They were knowledgeable and aggressive in getting my eczema flare ups under control. They offer cheaper options for getting expensive prescriptions, which is always a plus! The staff in the front and on the phones are helpful and kind. The nurses ask considerate and relevant questions. I feel like my doctors really understand my concerns and do their best to help me know how to use the medicines correctly. Can’t recommend them enough!

Dr. Parker has been my dermatologist for years, and she is terrific. She saw my 14-year-old for the first time yesterday yesterday, and was very thorough, knowledgeable, and kind. She guided her through a skin care routine, and gave her lots of tips about keeping her skin fresh. We feel so lucky to know Dr. Parker.

Voluma® Treatment
After consultation with a medical professional, target areas are outlined, prepped, and marked for precise injection. To ensure even distribution, your dermatologist may also massage the injection areas. Patients may experience minor pain or pressure from the injection, but the procedure only lasts 30 – 45 minutes.
Voluma® Results and Recovery
Daily activities can be resumed after a few hours from injection. Minor bruising, swelling, and redness may occur but should only last a few days. Results may be immediately evident, but it normally takes about 2 – 7 days for Voluma® to set in the apex and apple of the cheeks. Patients are advised to refrain from overexposure to sunlight and strenuous exercise for 24 hours following the treatment of Voluma®. The flattering results of Voluma® typically last 18 – 24 months, which is a great benefit of using this product.
