Fillers: There are many fillers available. Have your face evaluated by a board certified facial plastic surgeon with experience in injectables who can suggest which is best for you.

Great product: Voluma is a hyaluronic acid that is man-made. It is great for enhancement of the cheeks. It supposedly remains around longer than many other fillers. When injected in an artistic manner it fills and contours the mid-face in a natural manner. www.artofplasticsurgery.com

Yes: Voluma is the newest in the Juvederm family of HA fillers. It is a thicker gel and is used to lift and replace volume in the mid face. Because it is so much thicker it does last longer, up to 2 years. However because it is thicker it is not indicated for filling finer lines since it would not look or feel as natural.
