An instant shot for dewier, brighter, more radiant skin,
long-lasting Hydration – up to 9 months with juvederm volite.
In order to preserve the health and glow of our skin,
we must refresh it sometimes and give it the care it deserves by
applying the right skin care products and safe non-surgical treatments
that can restore the essential structure of the skin.
Juvederm® Volite is an anti-aging injectable product specifically designed to improve the condition of the skin and to last up to nine months only with one treatment session. Unlike typical dermal fillers, Volite is a skin conditioning Hyaluronic acid (HA) gel that delivers improvements in skin smoothness (absence of fine lines), hydration and elasticity. Juvederm® Volite aims to deliver results that last and eliminate the need for multiple treatments. It can be injected intradermally and is suitable to treat the face, neck, décolletage and hands of any skin types and ages. By containing the anaesthetic lidocaine, the pain is reduced during and after the treatment.
Juvederm® Volite uses VYCROSS® technology, a unique manufacturing process which is the innovative combination of low and high molecular weight Hyaluronic acid to increase the cross-linking efficiency of HA chains. While most HA fillers use 100% high molecular weight, VYCROSS® uses only 10% high with 90% low molecular weight HA hence creating a smoother filler and reaching a smoother result. It means that clients are likely to experience less pain and swelling after the treatment and the results are more natural and long-lasting.
Hyaluronic acid is the key to smooth, flawless and hydrated skin. Our skin cells naturally produce it in a certain amount to maintain moisture levels and hydration as a humectant but due to aging process and environmental effects, it is gradually decreasing. It basically works as a magnet for moisture, thus make your skin feels and appears plump and healthy. Besides, HA is a great ingredient to diminish your lines and wrinkles as it has the ability to hold up to six litres of water. A great benefit is that it is absolutely safe and works even for sensitive, breakout-prone or oily skin.
The results of Juvederm® Volite can personally vary and are not permanent, so we recommend repeating the treatment in every 6–9 months.
As we mentioned above, the main element of Juvederm® Volite is Hyaluronic acid which is naturally present in our skin, that is why allergy or skin tests are not required. Additionally, HA completely gets broken down by the body approximately in 12 months, leaving behind no trace of the curing. According to this, it is an absolutely safe treatment but like the most medical skin procedures, it must be performed by an experienced aesthetic doctor with artistic skills and professional hands which you are ensured to get at Cocoon Medical Spa.
Firstly, prior to your treatment, you should avoid drinking alcohol at least for 24 hours. Secondly, you should always inform your medical practitioner about any medication you are taking, such as Warfarin, aspirin or any other anti-coagulant medications. Finally, you should definitely avoid the treatment if you are on a course of antibiotics or have taken Roaccutane within the last 6 months.
Although 95% of patients of the Allergan research treated with Juvederm® Volite were able to return to social engagements one day after the treatment, there are some tiny inconveniences to count on. The small raised areas at the injection site will disappear within 1–2 hours after the treatment, while the common bruising, tenderness and redness will resolve in a few days in case of sensitive skin. To redound and quicken the healing process, you should avoid drinking alcohol and applying makeup for 12 hours and exercise for 48 hours after the treatment. Take special care to stay away from sun exposure, UV light, saunas and freezing temperature for 2 weeks.

Say NO to 3 of your skin’s most damaging agents:
If you are having lip treatment, the initial swelling may last for a week or 2 weeks. Lips may look somewhat uneven during this time, therefore, the result directly after the treatment should not be seen as the final result.
Avoid touching the treated area within 6 hours following treatment. After that, light makeup can be applied and the area can be gently washed with soap and water.
Until the swelling and redness have resolved, do not expose the area to intense heat, such a sunbathing, tanning, saunas, hot tubs, or hot wax. Also, avoid extreme cold, such as skiing or hiking outdoors.
If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the injections could contribute to another eruption of cold sores.
After the fillers in any treated areas (lips or other part of your face), you may immediately experience the following: redness, tenderness, itching sensation in the treated area (rare case) and swelling. These are the normal result of the injection. Some minor bruising may also be visible. To alleviate these, your Dr. may recommend icing the area for 15 to 20 minutes before you leave Cocoon. Makeup can usually be applied immediately after – please use the brush applicator very gently.
To avoid increased swelling and bruising, you should not exercise until the next few days. You also will want to avoid touching the treated area for about 3 days unless you received the filler, poly-L-lactic acid. Typically, treatments are given every 6 to 12 months and until the desired outcome is achieved.
If you are using aspirin or any similar medication, be aware that these may increase the risk of bruising or bleeding at the injection site.
Apply an ice pack or cold compress to the injection area after treatment to help reduce swelling. If swelling or redness persists too long, please contact us.
It is normal to feel a “firmness” in your injection area for the first few days after treatment. Over time, the area will soften, leaving you a soft, natural looking result.
Makeup may be applied shortly after treatment if no complications are present. Apply makeup gently, avoiding strenuous rubbing of the injection area.
The injection area may also be gently washed a few hours after treatment, avoiding aggressive scrubbing or rubbing.
It is important to avoid drinking alcohol or strenuous exercise, which may result in additional bruising. Ice packs can be applied periodically to reduce swelling. You may also take pain medications, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, etc.). However, taking Ibuprofen or aspirin may exacerbate bruising, as they have blood thinning properties.
To help alleviate bruising, we also recommend the topical application of Arnica, a natural ointment commonly used to reduce bruising. You can find Arnica in the natural foods section of your grocery store, or at local pharmacies. We will also provide you with some in our office.
Minimize movement of the treated area. However, if there is a visible bump, you can massage the area. The product will soften into the skin naturally within a few days.
Sunscreen and makeup (brush applicator) can be applied, and the area can be gently washed with a gentle cleanser.
– For most patients, the benefits of fillers can be enhanced by using a medical-grade skincare system, such as Obagi. Products containing Vitamin-C can strengthen the skin and improve laxity and texture. Additionally, use of Tretonoin (or Retin-A) helps rebuild cells in the skin’s epidermis (or top layer). Over time, Tretonoin can strengthen skin, improving firmness and resiliency.
Tretonoin (Retin-A) is available through a prescription. 98% of skin damage (aging, wrinkles, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation) is caused by sun damage-wearing sunscreen is critical to maintaining the look and health of your skin. Sunscreen should be re-applied after every 2 hours of sun exposure. If it is difficult for you to reapply sunscreen throughout the day, consider adding a powdered sunscreen (we recommend Bare Essentials) to your daily routine, which can be brushed on to the face and chest periodically.
Please call our office during business hour at +62 811-388-815 for questions and concerns.
Again, the inconvenience is temporary and generally disappears in a day or in some patients 1 week to 2 weeks.
