Juvederm Voluma: Before and After Photos – Northern Virginia | Loudoun | Fairfax | Prince William | Fauquier | Arlington

Dr. Trang Vo-Nguyen, known to her patients as “Dr. V,” heads the Virginia Institute of Surgical Arts in Chantilly, near Northern Virginia. As a board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. V provides advanced aesthetic surgery procedures to her patients in Loudoun, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington and nearby communities. Dr. V’s practice is also equipped to provide some of the latest and highly effective non-surgical treatments such as Juvederm Voluma.

What is Juvederm Voluma?

Juvederm Voluma is the first and only FDA approved injectable dermal filler to add instant volume to the cheek area. The cosmetic filler is designed to provide a subtle lift to the face, and help restore the facial contour that may have suffered loss of volume due to aging or other factors. Patients above the age of 21 can benefit from this non-surgical treatment.

The results with Juvderm Voluma can last for up to 18 months or even up to two years in some cases. Dr. V provides Juvederm Voluma with Lidocaine to her patients in Middleburg, Leesburg, Fairfax, Manassas, Warrenton, Arlington, and nearby areas to help restore the youthful curve to the cheeks and enhance the overall facial profile.

Juvederm Voluma Before and After Images

Facial rejuvenation and volume enhancement can be achieved through various procedures such as facelift, facial grafting and a number of FDA-approved facial fillers, including Juvederm Voluma. For a new patient, it can become difficult to make a choice among various treatment options. With the help of before and after photos, the cosmetic surgeon is in a position to show the effectiveness of different procedures and help a patient make an informed decision.

Juvederm Voluma ‘before and after images’ refer to the pictures of a past patient who has undergone the treatment. These pictures include photos taken before the treatment as well as after the treatment at multiple stages. A new patient can review the photos and gain a clear idea about the effectiveness or results with this dermal filler treatment. Dr. V ensures that such before and after pictures for various procedures are available at her practice for patients in Loudoun County, Fairfax County, Prince William County, Fauquier County, Arlington County, and surrounding communities.

Advantages of Before and After Photos

Juvederm Voluma is an advanced dermal filler treatment which is distinct from most other cosmetic fillers because it serves a unique purpose of adding to cheek volume. While other cosmetic fillers, including Juvederm’s other formulas, are designed to reduce wrinkles and lines from the face, Juvederm Voluma is exclusively focused on replenishing cheek volume.

For a new patient, it may not be easy to understand precisely what difference it may make to use Juvederm Voluma instead of other filler options. Before and after photos can serve as an effective visual tool in this situation to address the patient’s queries.

Realistic Expectations

One of the important concerns for a plastic surgeon is to ensure that the patient forms realistic expectations about Juvederm Voluma treatment in order to achieve satisfactory results. Many patients have only a vague idea about what a procedure can or cannot do for them when they visit the surgeon’s office for an initial consultation. At this stage, the surgeon and his or her staff will try to ensure that the patient does not misunderstand the procedure.

Despite best verbal explanations about a procedure such as Juvederm Voluma filler treatment, some patients may form misplaced expectations. In such a situation, even the best results are achieved with the treatment, the patient may end up remaining dissatisfied or disappointed with the outcome. This situation can be avoided effectively with the help of Juvederm Voluma before and after photos.

Online Photos

Some surgeons may go the extra mile to provide digital photos online regarding various cosmetic enhancement procedures, including Juvederm Voluma treatment. Such pictures can be uploaded on the surgeon’s website. This provides free access to everyone to view these pictures from the comfort of their home or office. A potential patient can review the photos before deciding whether to visit the surgeon’s office for a consultation.

Patient Education

As an experienced and board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. V likes to ensure that her patients in Middleburg, Leesburg, Fairfax, Manassas, Warrenton, Arlington, and nearby areas are well informed and educated about the procedure they are planning to undergo. It is in the patient’s best interest to know all aspects about a particular treatment and its comparison with other similar treatment options.

This involves patient’s participation in the decision process and allows them to make informed choices. Before and after photos play a key role in this endeavor, and help ensure the patient’s knowledge and understanding about the effectiveness of a particular treatment.

As a facial plastic surgeon, in addition to consultations for surgical improvement of facial aesthetics, I am often asked by patients about basic skincare as a complement to other efforts. I like to compare beautiful skin to a perfect canvas on which an artist manifests her masterpiece. The skin on your face and neck can signify to others a lot about your health and how well you take care of yourself. Yet, many of us disregard our skin’s health and often spend little time nourishing it. Indulge your skin to allow glowing illustration of your emotions.

The most basic skincare regimen consists of cleansing, moisturizing, and protecting.

Wash your face twice a day with a mild cleanser specifically formulated for the face. You may use a soft brush or your fingers to gently exfoliate and refresh in the morning, and de-stress and fully cleanse in the evening after a long day.

Moisturize with a balanced complex that uniquely harmonizes with your type of skin: dry, neutral, oily. Don’t be tempted to skip this step if you suffer oily skin. Lack of moisture initiates a vicious cycle that throws your skin even more off-balance and causes more oil production.

And most importantly, protect your canvas at all times from the harsh aging effects of the sun. Allow me to repeat. Protect. Protect. And protect! Each and every morning, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF of at least 30, covering both UVA and UVB.

In the summer months, constant reapplication is essential as the sunscreen shield often fades away during activity. Don’t neglect your skin in the coming winter months. Although the sun may not be directly beaming down on us, its rays still reach and damage our skin. Most of us in the metro area spend an abundance of time in the car commuting during the week. Sun exposure comes directly and indirectly reflected from other cars, from dashboards, from any shiny surface. Protect yourself.

In addition, always apply an initial layer of sunscreen before you apply make-up or other cosmetic products. Even though some products offer a degree of sun protection, most do not fully prevent sun penetration adequately. Check and confirm next time you pick up a foundation product.

Vigilance and dedication to nourishing and cultivating your skin with delay the signs of aging and lead to a healthy canvas whereupon a work of art and expression arises.
