Volume Replacement
Volume Augmentation provide Long lasting Improvement to Facial Symmetry and Folds
How long does volumisation last?
Duration depends on many factors, such as the individual's skin type, skin condition, lifestyle and age. Volumising products are often used in conjunction with wrinkle improvement and can last up to 9 months.
How is volumization done?
Volumising products are very quick and easy to perform. It starts by using a local anesthetic so that the procedure is virtually pain free. After this, the whole area to be treated is thoroughly cleaned with disinfectant and tiny needles are used to inject the gel into the skin.
