Voluma
How long does it take for the full effects of Voluma XC injections to take effect?
With Voluma, you should see instantaneous results. In addition, you will have some swelling and possibly bruising. The swelling normally subsides and you should see your final result in about 2 weeks. 1 syringe of Voluma is a conservative treatment, so it will not be unusual for you to feel like you may need additional product once the swelling has subsided.
Clinical Context
Voluma is a thicker, more cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel designed to restore volume and structure, especially in the cheeks, rather than smooth fine lines. Because it's denser, it holds its shape and integrates into tissue somewhat differently than thinner fillers used for lips or superficial lines. You'll notice volume immediately, but final contour becomes clear once swelling fully resolves.
