How is the VolumaLift performed?
Dr. Day will inject a gel into specific fat buttress regions in your face, plumping and lifting the overlying skin structure to restore the attractive fullness of youth.

How long does it take?
The procedure takes less than one hour to perform.

Is the VolumaLift painful?
The VolumaLift is not very painful. The skin is treated with local anesthesia and the injectable gel is deposited very deeply along the facial bones, where there are very few pain fibers. There is virtually no pain after the VolumaLift is completed.

Are there side effects?
The VolumaLift is very safe, but you may experience some bruising and swelling, asymmetry (which is correctable), or a very remote chance of allergic reaction or infection. Lumpiness may occur, but is easily corrected.

Is there any downtime after a VolumaLift?
Since there is a somewhat unpredictable degree of bruising depending upon the individual, patients should plan on 1 to 3 days before makeup will effectively camouflage the treatment.

Can I combine my VolumaLift with other procedures?
Yes, most other treatments are completely safe following a VolumaLift. Dr. Day may suggest a combination of several minimally invasive procedures for best results.

How long will my VolumaLift last?
The duration of your lift effect will vary between 8 months to several years, depending upon the filler used, your innate facial structure and your rate collagen production. Dr. Day will help determine which type of product will work best for your personal needs.
