What is VOLBELLA?
So, what is VOLBELLA? JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler specifically made for delicate areas like the lips. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is produced in the body and helps skin retain moisture and volume. By carefully administering the filler beneath the skin, patients can see smooth, natural-looking plumpness without an invasive procedure or weeks of downtime.
Can VOLBELLA be used long-term?
VOLBELLA injections are safe for repeated use over time. Because HA is a substance your body already produces, it's well-tolerated and carries minimal risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects.
VOLBELLA gradually breaks down over time, typically up to 18 months after treatment. Once the effects wear off, you can return for additional injections without causing harm to your skin or lips. In fact, many patients choose to have maintenance sessions to keep their results consistent.
Why our patients choose VOLBELLA
VOLBELLA is specifically designed to address subtle concerns in the lip area. It adds volume to thin lips without creating an overdone look. For lines around the mouth, including vertical lip lines (sometimes called smoker's lines), VOLBELLA smoothes these wrinkles and restores a more youthful appearance.
Because the gel is designed for delicate areas, it doesn't feel heavy or stiff. You'll still be able to smile, talk, and eat normally without discomfort or restriction.
Your VOLBELLA appointment explained
VOLBELLA injections are performed at our office in Butte, MT, and take about 15 – 30 minutes. During treatment, Patience will carefully administer the filler into the targeted areas using a thin needle.
Afterward, you may experience swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. These side effects are common and resolve within a few days. You can return to most activities right away, though it's best to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for 24 hours.
VOLBELLA results and longevity
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA results can last up to 18 months, though this varies depending on factors like your metabolism, lifestyle, and the area treated. Some patients notice their results lasting slightly longer with repeated treatments as the filler helps stimulate collagen production over time.
When you're ready for a touch-up, scheduling regular maintenance appointments ensures your results remain consistent. Many patients find that maintaining their outcomes requires less product over time compared to their initial treatment.
