Volux

The jawline plays an important role in facial symmetry, and many people wish they could achieve a more defined or chiseled jaw. Genetics can cause you to naturally have a weak or less-defined jaw, and aging can also result in a loss of definition of the lower border of the face. Volux^® at New Jersey’s The Peer Group is an FDA-approved facial filler that joined the respected JUVÉDERM^® line in 2022.

This filler adds structure and definition to create the look of a sharper jawline. Volux^® is the first and only hyaluronic acid injectable dermal filler the FDA has approved for treating the jawline area specifically.

Procedure

An increasing number of patients are considering fillers to enhance the appearance of their jawline as they learn that the shape of the jaw has a major impact on the face. For some people, fat reduction treatments will be the best solution for targeting double chin fat, while others would benefit most from sharpening the bony support of the jaw.

Volux^® is an injectable facial filler for the jaw and chin that is part of the JUVÉDERM collection. Like the other fillers in this line, it contains hyaluronic acid (or HA). This is a substance that’s naturally found in the body and is very effective at providing hydration since it can retain 1,000 times its weight in water.

Facial fillers such as Volux^® are gels that are injected beneath the skin, where they temporarily add volume. In addition to minimizing creases, fillers can also restore the foundations of the face.

Volux^® is highly cohesive and has more structure and lift capacity than its counterparts in the JUVÉDERM collection. Since it is much denser than any other filler in the line, it is ideal for improving the structure and shape of the jawline. It is injected deep into the jaw and chin. This filler can address the appearance of the jowls, strengthen the jaw and chin, improve facial harmony, reduce the appearance of a double chin, or improve the contours of the jaw. By improving facial balance and harmony, it can help to make a patient look like the best version of themselves.

Treatment

This filler has been approved for the treatment of moderate to severe loss of jawline definition in adults aged 21 and older.

Recovery

Volux^® is a simple, quick treatment that has minimal downtime and side effects. All hyaluronic acid fillers have potential mild, temporary side effects including redness, swelling, tenderness, lumps, and firmness at the injection site, but these effects will go away within two weeks.

Results

Volux^® will improve the appearance of the jawline right away. It provides smooth, natural-looking, and long-lasting contouring results for the lower face. With optimal treatment, the results from JUVÉDERM Volux^® could last for up to one year.

Cost

We will discuss the costs of a JUVÉDERM Volux^® treatment during your consultation, when we can go over specifics unique to you. Keep in mind that maintenance injections may be needed to preserve the results of this treatment.

Other Options

If diet-resistant fat is causing your jawline to look less defined, The Peer Group provides non-surgical cosmetic treatments to reduce the stubborn volume from the area below the chin. Kybella^® contains an acid that breaks down fat cells, SculpSure^® is a laser-based device that heats fat cells to kill them, and CoolSculpting^® uses cool temperatures to cause unwanted fat cells to freeze. All of these treatments ultimately cause fat to gradually break down and be metabolized by the body so the chin and neck look slimmer and sleeker.

Other facial fillers in the JUVÉDERM^® and Restylane^® collections can be used to add definition to more areas of the face, such as the cheeks, or to reduce facial creases, like nasolabial folds. For patients with more severe signs of aging, a facelift or neck lift could be a better option for improving the jaw area.
