Voluma For Men | Dr. Mesa Cosmetic Plastic Surgery

As we age, the amount of fat in our face (that contributes so greatly to a youthful appearance) begins to dissipate. Additionally, the facial bones start to decrease in volume especially in the cheeks and around the nose. This natural occurrence can lead to sunken areas on the face, or sagging deflated-looking skin that makes us appear older than we are.

VOLUMA for MEN is a dermal filler that is specifically formulated to add volume back to the cheeks, an area where volume loss due to aging can have a profound effect on the entire face, from lines around the mouth, to sagging jowls to hollows under the eyes.
