Overview
Juvéderm Volbella XC is a specialized hyaluronic acid dermal filler designed specifically for subtle lip enhancement and the treatment of fine lines around the mouth. At The Art of Braces in Las Vegas, NV, Dr. Saoly Benson offers Volbella injections to help patients achieve beautifully enhanced lips and a smoother perioral area with natural-looking results.
What Makes Volbella Special?
Volbella uses Vycross technology, which creates a smooth gel that integrates seamlessly with your lip tissue. This advanced formulation allows for subtle, natural-looking enhancement rather than an overdone appearance. Volbella is ideal for patients who want to add shape and definition to their lips while also addressing vertical lip lines, often called "smoker's lines" or "lipstick lines."

What to Expect
During your treatment, Dr. Benson will carefully inject Volbella into the targeted areas of your lips and/or the lines around your mouth. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes. Volbella contains lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to help minimize any discomfort during the injection. Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to their normal activities right away.
Recovery
After your Volbella treatment, you may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. These effects are typically temporary and resolve within a few days. Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat for 24 hours after treatment. Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as any swelling subsides.
