Aging skin can take a toll on one’s self-confidence. Men and women who are unhappy with volume loss and skin laxity may feel as though plastic surgery is their only line of defense. However, Dr. Mary Lupo of and the team of the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology in New Orleans provides solutions such as Juvéderm Voluma.

What is Juvéderm Voluma?

Dr. Mary Lupo uses Juvéderm Voluma to replace volume loss caused by the natural loss of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are naturally present in the skin and provide patients with the full, voluminous look that makes the face look youthful. After the age of 30, the skin begins to lose collagen and elastin naturally, and the face begins to experience skin laxity. To combat this, injectables such as Juvéderm Voluma can be used.

The Juvéderm Voluma process

Juvéderm Voluma injections are performed right in the office. Patients rest easy in the treatment chair for their evaluation, during which Dr. Mary Lupo will determine if patients are appropriate candidates. Once it is decided to move forward with the injections, patients undergo a series of injections into the areas of concern. Over time, collagen and elastin are restored and patients look years younger without the need for invasive plastic surgery.
