vollure allergan before after
Before and after from manufacturer of Vollure XC treatment of nasolabial folds (parentheses), corner and marionette lines. Patient treated with a total of 3.75cc. Source: Allergan. Please see the manufacturer’s Indications and Important Safety Information for further information.

Dr. Zuckerman the latest techniques to perform nasolabial folds filler injections. Informally known as the “parentheses” around the mouth, these lines are most prominent while smiling or performing other facial animations and grow deeper over time. They are effectively treated using Hyaluronic Acid dermal fillers such as Juvederm Ultra Plus XC or Vollure XC.

These two dermal fillers are similar and belong to the same family of products from manufacturer Allergan. Vollure is newer and does not attract as much water as Juvederm Ultra Plus XC, which allows it to be softer and more malleable. This makes it most suitable for mild volume loss in facial wrinkles and folds.

Nasolabial Folds (Parentheses Around the Mouth) Rejuvenation Pretreatment Guidelines

Dr. Zuckerman recommends patients take the following precautions before undergoing nasolabial folds rejuvenation to minimize bruising: no NSAIDs such aspirin or ibuprofen within a couple days before a day after, don’t drink alcohol to excess a day before and a day before, refraining from lying flat or working out within 2 hours after injection.

Nasolabial Folds (Parentheses Around the Mouth) Rejuvenation Recovery (Downtime)

Some patients experience slight redness near the injection sites along the lines of the nasolabial folds immediately post-treatment. There may be minimal bruising as well, but both of these effects generally resolve within 24-48 hours. Most often, Dr. Zuckerman is able to minimize or eliminate such side effects with his techniques, and his patients often go straight back to work after a day-time treatment.

Nasolabial Folds (Parentheses Around the Mouth) Rejuvenation Associated Risks

Nasolabial fold filler injection in general is very safe, but it is important to inject a uniform amount of product along the line of the nasolabial fold, a thin target area. The most common complaint Dr. Zuckerman receives from patients requiring corrective treatment after an unsatisfactory outcome with another practitioner is an unhappiness with the aesthetics of the result. A suboptimal result may include bumps or unevenness.

In the rare event that a patient is allergic to the filler, Dr. Zuckerman’s office will be able to safely and quickly reverse the treatment to eliminate the Hyaluronic Acid. Stay safe by visiting a board-certified plastic surgeon for your treatment.
