Intensly hydate and revitalise your skin with Juvéderm® Volite the latest in skincare technology

Volite Skinboosters

Volite the next generation skin booster will take your skin to the next level, lasting longer and delivering more intense hydration than previous skin boosters

What are skinboosters?

Skin boosters are a non-surgical, injectable treatment that utilizes hyaluronic acid to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add volume to the face, skin boosters are designed to provide a more subtle and hydration-focused result. Areas that can be treated are: face, neck, hands, decolletage.

How does Volite work?

Volite skinbooster is one of the newest products in the JUVÉDERM® hyaluronic rejuvenation range, hyaluronic acid is a substance is naturally found in our bodies and has an impressive ability to hold water, giving it a powerful moisturising effect. As a result, your skin will be smoother, plumper, and more glowy than ever before! Volite delivers longer-lasting, more intense hydration than previous skin booster treatments. This is done due to a unique cross-linking of its key ingredient, hyaluronic acid.
The treatment also stimulates collagen production, which helps to firm and strengthen the skin over time.

A skin booster treatment is a quick and relatively painless procedure that is typically performed in a dermatologist's office or med spa. The treatment typically takes 30-60 minutes and involves multiple small injections of the hyaluronic acid-based gel into the skin. Most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure.

Results from Volite skin booster treatment are typically seen within a few days, with full results visible in 2-3 weeks. The effects of the treatment typically last for 9months, after which a maintenance treatment may be recommended.

Who Can Benefit From Skinboosters?

Skin boosters are a great option for anyone looking to hydrate and revitalize their skin. They are particularly beneficial for individuals with dehydrated or dull skin, or for those experiencing early signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. However, it's important to note that skin boosters are not a replacement for traditional dermal fillers and are best used as part of a comprehensive skincare regimen.

You should not have skinboosters if you are pregnant or breastfeeding and you should defer treatment if you have any active infections. For 2 weeks before treatment you should avoid dental work or vaccinations. Advise us if you are taking any medications, have allergies or get cold sores.

As with any injectable treatment, we recommend avoiding excessive alcohol consumption and high intensity exercise 24 hours prior to your treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.

Aftercare

We recommend drinking plenty of water in the 24 hours after dermal fillers to help with the result. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, saunas and prolonged sun exposure the rest of the day of treatment.

Immediately after the Skin Booster treatment, there may be redness, swelling, bruising or rarely you may notice tiny bumps due to the intense build-up of moisture underneath the skin. All these side effects are temporary and will settle after one to two days.

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are smooth injectable gels made from synthesised hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring clear, gel-like substance found in our skin. Dermal fillers are injected under your skin to replenish lost volume and hydration, diminishing the depth of wrinkles and improving facial contours. Sublime uses a range of fillers made of both thinner gels which are great for filling fine wrinkles as well as thicker gels for re-sculpting facial contours and restoring lost volume in areas such as the cheeks.

What is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural gooey gel-like carbohydrate present in every tissue of the body and provides support, hydration, and promotes collagen formation. It is found abundantly in youthful skin however, declines with age which contributes to volume loss, development of fine lines and wrinkles, dehydrated skin, and an overall dullness in facial appearance. By restoring lost volume, re-sculpting facial contours, and enhancing lip volume and definition with HA fillers we can help to restore a more youthful appearance with improved skin texture and hydration (HA holds 1000x it’s own weight in water!)

Do you treat wrinkles on the cheeks?

If lines and wrinkles high up on the cheekbone are caused by the lower fibres of the muscle around the eye (Orbicularis oculi) they are considered to be crow’s feet and can be improved with anti-wrinkle injections. If they are caused by the cheekbone muscle (Zygomaticus), they do not respond well to anti-wrinkle injections and trying to treat them can result in an uneven smile. If related to underlying volume loss, then dermal fillers will improve these lines.

What areas can be treated with dermal fillers?

What are the possible side effects?

The treated area will initially look red and swollen and feel tender. Swelling settles within hours, rarely lasting 1-2 weeks depending on the area treated and filler used. Bruising may appear 12-24 hours after treatment, especially in those taking aspirin, anti-inflammatories, garlic, and fish oil. Bruising is not harmful and can be covered with makeup while fading over 1-3 weeks. You may see or feel the filler as a firm lump under the skin before softening occurs over 4-6 weeks. Cold sores can be triggered in predisposed individuals and can be prevented by preventative anti-viral medication taken leading up to your treatment. Due to factors like preexisting underlying facial asymmetry, your result may be slightly uneven despite our very best efforts.

Rarely allergy can occur resulting in redness, lumps, and swelling or filler can enter an artery or vein causing an occlusion – this is treated by dissolving the filler with an enzyme. There is a very small risk of infection, treated by antibiotics and dissolving enzymes.
