Many patients are turning to dermal fillers to refresh their look or solve some of their facial cosmetic concerns. Our faces often bear the brunt of abuse from the elements, pollutant exposure, and sun exposure and are the first to begin to show signs of getting older.
The advancements in cosmetic treatments have delivered alternatives to going under the knife with temporary solutions for certain problem areas. Dermal fillers have become a “go-to” solution for smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles as well as restoring youthful volume to the cheeks, lips, and jawline. There are different formulations that have been created to address a wide range of cosmetic concerns.
Today we are going to talk about what you can expect before and after dermal fillers are used in different areas.
The Juvederm Family Of Dermal Fillers
Correcting cosmetic concerns in different areas of the face requires variations in consistency. To add volume to an area such as the cheeks, a thicker gel would be needed to hold its shape and remain in place. The delicate places under the eyes would need a much more spreadable type of filler since the skin is much thinner in this area, and a thicker filler may provide an unnatural look.
Juvederm offers different products that can address these varying needs. Some Juvederm formulations also contain a small amount of lidocaine, which is a local anesthetic that helps mitigate discomfort at the locations where the injections are administered.
- Juvederm Voluma
- This is the thickest formulation of the Juvederm family, so it is best suited for restoring volume to cheeks that have lost volume due to aging and augmenting the jawline for a more balanced and defined appearance.
- If you search for dermal filler before and after pictures, you will find many that depict cheeks that have been refreshed using Juvederm Voluma. There will be a noticeable difference in the volume of the cheeks as well as fewer fine lines around the mouth.
- Another side benefit of adding volume to the cheeks is that it often helps reduce the dark circles and hollows under the eyes, leaving behind a more “refreshed” and “less tired” appearance.

Facial rejuvenation with Juvéderm® Voluma and Botox® - Juvederm Vollure
- Vollure’s medium consistency is a great combination that is both durable and allows for it to spread enough to cover moderate to severe lines, wrinkles, and folds, as well as touchy areas such as the laugh lines that form outside the mouth and nose without inhibiting natural expressions or movements of the face.
-
Lip contouring with Juvederm® Vollure - Juvederm Volbella
- Volbella is the most suitable for the delicate under-eye area and can be used to fill lip lines or add subtle volume to the lips due to its thinner consistency.
- Volbella dermal filler before and after pictures showcase its effectiveness in adding subtle volume to the lips and correcting symmetry. When used under the eyes, the results show the reduction or elimination of dark circles and puffiness, leaving a more “well-rested” and fresh appearance.

Can Dermal Fillers Stretch Out The Skin On Your Face?
People have said that repeated filler injections in the same place can cause the skin to loosen and stretch if special care is not taken when giving certain fillers. This may make it necessary to use a greater volume of filler during subsequent treatments.
Certain filler products are designed to mitigate this issue, but your cosmetic surgeon may also caution you to avoid certain areas of your face when using fillers.
When multiple cosmetic surgeons were questioned about whether this was a possibility with Juvederm Voluma or the Juvederm family of products, they all agreed that it was highly unlikely, especially in the hands of a qualified professional.
Fillers that are composed of hyaluronic acid (a naturally occurring substance contained in the skin) wear off slowly over an extended period of time. These fillers are used to restore natural fullness to areas that aging has reduced, and they wear off so gradually that they won’t leave excess empty spaces or skin as it dissipates.
Although injectable dermal fillers are among the most popular cosmetic procedures, not everyone has the proper training to do your procedure. Choosing a qualified injector to conduct the procedure is essential to both your safety and the results.
Furthermore, an inexperienced injector would have to place a significantly high volume of filler in the same area, and the patient would have to have very poor skin quality for this to even become a possibility.
Seven Helpful Skin Benefits Of Dermal Fillers
Many ask if dermal fillers will change their skin and the ones that contain hyaluronic acid do actually offer some skin-improving benefits. Here are the top seven.
- Keeps the skin plump and healthy looking;
- Increases the resilience of the skin by strengthening the natural barrier layer to help protect the skin from damage from outside factors related to the environment, sun exposure, etc;
- Keeps the skin well hydrated because hyaluronic acid attracts moisture;
- Makes skin appear tighter and firmer;
- Helps promote skin cell regeneration which makes skin look younger and healthier;
- Can help improve skin texture and clear up discoloration spots by promoting quicker cell turnover;
- Can significantly improve skin texture making it feel and appear smoother.
How Do I Know The Best Dermal Filler To Use?
As a patient, you can rely on your expertly skilled provider to help you choose the products to use. Knowing what to look for in an injectables provider, such as proper medical training, a detailed understanding of the facial structure, skilled artistry, and expertise in the different products available, is one of the most important elements in getting the results you want.
A professional with these traits will be able to assess your skin, your goals, and your tastes to determine which filler will give you the best results and then administer the injections in a safe and effective manner so that you can achieve your aesthetic goals.
Often, the best, most long-lasting results are typically achieved by combining several different types of fillers.
