The loss of collagen and elastin is a normal part of your skin’s aging process. This is often accelerated by external elements such as pollution, use of hard water and exposure to the sun’ rays and chemicals, all of which leads to the loss of hyaluronic acid (HA), a key molecule in our natural skin that binds and retains water molecules and as a result keeps your skin youthful and firm.
Research into how our skin works has now made it possible to have treatments that use the natural substances found in our skin to rejuvenate the tissues in the dermis and epidermis to help the skin be supple, firm and glowy.
Volite is one such treatment. An anti-ageing injectable treatment from Juvéderm—the makers of Botox—Volite is a hyaluronic acid treatment that works to rejuvenate and heal your skin from within. It comprises of a sterile pyrogen-free physiological solution of cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) which is not of animal origin.
Volite can be effectively used to address skin aging issues such as
- fine lines and deep wrinkles
- loss of hydration and elasticity
- lip augmentation
- jawline contouring
- décolletage smoothening
- nasolabial fold treatment
The filler is administered below a wrinkle or area in which you want your skin rejuvenated. The HA will replenish your skin’s natural healing properties and give you the benefits you seek — a firm, supple and youthful looking skin. As the product contains lidocaine, a pain killer, you should not experience much pain during the treatment. The course of injections typically takes place over a two-week interval depending on how you respond.
As with any filler treatment, Volite too requires a professional to administer the injectable in order to be effective. At Kaya, our dermatologists have both the experience and expertise to rightly administer the correct doses of the drug as well as to choose the most appropriate areas of your skin that will help you achieve the best possible results aesthetically.
Volite works by filling out creases and wrinkles, and add more volume to areas such as the lips, jawlines, chins and nasolabial folds. Depending on your skin and the areas of treatment, your dermatologist will recommend what’s best for your skin. The procedure for Volite typically takes anywhere between 30 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the area treated and the intensity of the treatment.
All dermal fillers, including Volite, have to be administered following a set procedure. At Kaya, our dermatologists ensure that all procedures are met as per set standards of quality and safety. Your treatment is effectively managed keeping your skin care goals in mind.
