A well-defined jawline gives you an air of youth, beauty, and confidence. But not everyone is born with perfectly chiseled facial features. With age, volume loss in your cheeks can cause wrinkles and sagging skin, obscuring even the strongest jawlines into hanging jowls. While you can attract attention away from your jaw with scarves, turtlenecks, and carefully applied makeup, these will not solve your problem in the long term.
For people seeking new, effective non-surgical treatments for anti-aging benefits and facial enhancements, Dr. Scott Farber offers Juvéderm’s latest addition to the dermal filler family. Juvéderm Volux delivers the same HYCROSS technology fillers like Vollure, Voluma, and Volbella, but emphasizes chin and jawline definition. Let’s look at how Juvéderm Volux can redefine the lower third of your face.
Volux Benefits
Volux is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler specifically designed for the chin and jawline. Dr. Farber can use it to improve your facial harmony by strengthening these areas. This process can soften jowls, improve a double chin, or give you a stronger, well-defined jawline.
Like facial fillers that augment lips and cheeks, Juvéderm Volux can help you achieve your cosmetic goals by adjusting facial proportions and delivering a chiseled presence. Potential reasons you may choose Volux include:
- To turn back the clock on facial aging
- As an addition to a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan
- To achieve a chiseled jawline
- To adjust facial proportions to improve symmetry
- To treat a recessed chin or jowls
Though your choice of filler is essential to achieve your desired results, don’t overlook your injector’s training and skill. As a board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Farber has an extensive knowledge of facial anatomy and how much Volux to introduce for a subtle improvement.
How Is Volux Different From Other Fillers?
While Dr. Farber uses products like Radiesse and Sculptra to create facial harmony, Juvéderm Volux contains a more cohesive, thicker formula than other products. Though highly cohesive formulas made with calcium hydroxyapatite and poly-L-lactic acid can provide some jawline enhancement, most patients prefer hyaluronic acid-based fillers for natural results that last up to two years. Therefore, Volux can fulfill the demand for non-surgical jawline treatments.
Dr. Farber and his staff are excited to offer Volux to patients seeking a firmer, well-defined jawline. Like the rest of the Juvéderm line, Volux addresses lost facial volume. However, it has a different consistency than solutions like Voluma and Volbella. Its dense formulation is excellent at lifting tissues in the lower face.
Is Volux Available in the United States?
Juvéderm Volux is available from coast to coast, including in Boca Raton. The FDA’s approval of Juvéderm Volux represents the most significant innovation for Juvéderm’s hyaluronic acid filler portfolio since the introduction of Voluma. Dr. Farber uses it to create a jawline that appears more defined in person and on camera. Volux is the solution many of our patients need for outstanding results in the lower face area.
Is Volux FDA-Approved?
In August 2022, Allergan, makers of Volux, announced their product had earned FDA approval for enhancing jawline definition in patients over 21 with moderate to severe jawline definition loss.
With age, patients of all genders and ethnic backgrounds experience reduced jawline definition that can change facial contours and cause jowls to develop.
Clinical trial participants reported high satisfaction with their results. Six months after receiving their injections, nearly 90% of participants said they would recommend Volux to a friend. Meanwhile, more than 87% continued to endorse this solution one year later.
How Long Will Volux Last?
To date, Juvéderm Volux is the longest-lasting hyaluronic acid filler Allergan has created. Studies have shown it can last for 18 months to two years. Remember, dermal fillers’ duration ultimately depends on how quickly your body metabolizes the product, which varies from one patient to the next. In addition, if you dislike your results or have any complications, Dr. Farber can dissolve Volux using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
Are There Adverse Side Effects?
You should expect similar potential side effects as with other dermal filler treatments, which Dr. Farber will explain in detail during your consultation. These may include mild swelling, tenderness, lumps, and bruising, which typically dissipate on their own after a couple of weeks. Additional rare risks of dermal fillers can include infection and vascular occlusion.
To minimize bruising, Dr. Farber suggests you refrain from taking ibuprofen, fish oils, and aspirin. You should avoid alcohol consumption or exercise for 24 hours. For optimal results, we will provide you with details about Volux aftercare.
How Much Does Volux Cost?
Many factors influence the cost of Volux injectables, including how many syringes it will take to provide your ideal outcome. At your Volux consultation, Dr. Farber will give you an accurate estimate.
Can I Combine Volux With Other Injectables?
For a more complete, long-lasting facial rejuvenation, Dr. Farber can add injectables like Botox to address multiple cosmetic concerns in one session. While some patients and doctors call this approach a liquid facelift, Dr. Farber prefers to address problems with various customized treatments, much like when combining a facelift with eyelid surgery in one operation.
Why Choose a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon for Volux?
With such excitement surrounding this new, advanced jawline treatment, you may be so eager to explore it that you turn to the convenience of your nearest salon or day spa. But think again – though treatments may only take 15 minutes and require no anesthesia or incisions, injectable fillers are still medical procedures requiring a provider with considerable skill, an artistic eye for balance and proportion, and a thorough knowledge of facial anatomy to ensure safe, stunning results.
Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Farber transformed his artistic talent and love of serving others into a career in aesthetic medicine. As a fourth-generation surgeon who grew up in a family of physicians, Dr. Farber can offer exceptional non-surgical care and more natural-looking results than injectors whose only credential is a weeklong seminar.

Together, you and Dr. Farber will create a personalized treatment plan to fit your aesthetic needs and goals. In addition, he enjoys teaching his patients and will take extra time addressing all questions and concerns you may have about this procedure.
