Volbella – A New Hyaluronic Acid Derived Filler

Volbella is the newest hyaluronic acid based filler from Allergan. Other hyaluronic acid based fillers from Allergan include Juvederm, Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus and Voluma. Volbella is the first hyaluronic acid based soft tissue filler approved for use in the lips that has been shown to last up to 12 months. Up to this point, all of the patients that we have treated with Volbella have been extremely happy. Advantages over other hyaluronic acid fillers include decreased discomort during the treatment and decreased bruising following the treatment. From an injector standpoint, the product flows very smoothly allowing for excellent placement accuracy. In addition to being used in the lips, Volbella is also indicated for cheek and temple filling. All in all, a valuable new addition to the array of soft tissue fillers available to patients in Canada.
