Volumetry, or facial contouring, is an increasingly popular procedure among both women and men. It involves injecting hyaluronic acid into specific areas of the face, helping to restore its original shape.

Volumetry is recommended for those whose facial skin is losing the battle against aging, becoming saggy, developing deep lines, or showing the so-called “jowls” effect on the cheeks. It is also a solution for people with facial asymmetry or imperfections caused by tissue loss or rapid weight loss. The treatment targets areas that need enhancement (such as cheekbones, chin, or jawline) or filling (deficiencies, sunken cheeks).

The procedure itself is almost painless, with only a slight feeling of pressure due to the injection of hyaluronic acid, which is denser than the one used for wrinkle filling. The injection is performed with a thin needle or cannula, and minor bruising may occur at the injection sites. The results are visible almost immediately and last from 2 up to even 4.5 years!
