Can I have a Juvederm treatment instead of a second treatment of Voluma?

You may have different fillers injected, but the products are different in terms of thickness and longevity. Voluma is thicker and lasts longer than other Juvederm products, so you may end up needing more Juvederm to achieve a similar result that you would get with Voluma. The best thing to do is have your injector evaluate you and determine which product will best address your needs.

Clinical Context

Different fillers behave differently once injected. Voluma is thicker and firmer, so it stays where placed and works well over bone, but requires careful technique near blood vessels. Juvederm formulas are softer and blend more into surrounding tissue. Because each product has different properties, the right choice depends on your anatomy and goals, which is best assessed during an in-person exam with your injector rather than a general rule.
