10 Things to Know about Voluma
Juvederm Voluma® is an injectible filler that is made of hyaluronic acid with a special structure that makes it firmer than other hyaluronic fillers. It is well-suited to restoring deep volume in the cheeks, temples, and other facial areas. Patients who undergo treatment with Voluma® at our Chicago and North Suburban locations benefit from Dr. John Q. Cook’s 15 year experience with facial volumization.
Hand Rejuvenation
We offer a three tiered strategy for hand rejuvenation. This consists of deep volume restoration with fat transfer or Radiesse®, skin restoration with an advanced oxygen delivery system, and restoration of uniform skin color with intense pulsed light.
Limits to Facial Fillers
The single best correction from fillers occurs in the nasolabial fold, the depression between the cheek and upper lip that deepens as we age. Injectible fillers provide a framework beneath the fold and make the shadow that occurs there less visible.
A Plea for Sanity with Facial Fillers
Facial fillers used in a sensible way, almost always produce very happy patients. Pushed to extremes, however, some very peculiar things can happen.
