Allergan, the global aesthetic pharmaceutical company, has launched Juvéderm VOLUX – a welcome chin filler addition to its Juvéderm line up of dermal fillers.

What is Juvéderm VOLUX Chin Filler?

Juvéderm VOLUX is a hyaluronic acid-based filler designed to sculpt the chin and jawline areas, giving you facial definition.

With its patented VYCROSS® technology in hyaluronic acid, Juvéderm VOLUX results can last for up to 18 – 24 months. This is comparatively longer than its cousin Juvéderm VOLUMA, which can last up to 18 months.

This product, like the rest of the Juvéderm family, contains lidocaine to aid with a more comfortable treatment experience.

Why VOLUX? The Importance of Facial Definition

Chin projection and jawline definition are important attributes of an attractive face, as it forms the frame of our facial features.

The chin is an area of improvement that many people can benefit from. This is especially true as our Asian mandible (jawbone) is typically smaller and our chins are more receded than our Caucasian counterparts.

Moreover, as we grow older, we start to lose bone around the chin. The soft tissues around the jawline also start to loosen. This is where Juvéderm VOLUX can be considered as a chin filler treatment option.

Results with Juvéderm VOLUX

The softening of the lower face can now be safely and effectively reversed with hyaluronic acid chin fillers such as Juvéderm VOLUX. It is a beneficial addition to our beautifying and anti-ageing arsenal for the lower face.

Juvéderm VOLUX is CE marked to restore and create volume in the chin and jawline area. The chin and jawline filler is expected to be available in Singapore by Q2, 2020. Drop us a message to register your interest once it’s made available!

“How to tighten pores?” I’m often asked. With consistent effort, perseverance, and the Clear + Brilliant Laser.

With the number of Clear + Brilliant Lasers I do on a daily basis, one may be forgiven for thinking that it’s a new treatment enjoying a hyped up demand for its ability to shrink and minimise pores.

In fact, the Clear + Brilliant Laser has been in Singapore for almost 10 years. But how? Why has it not gone the way of trendy “miraculous” treatments – popular one day, dead the next?

4 reasons the Clear + Brilliant Laser an answer to How To Tighten Pores

Find out why the Clear + Brilliant pore reducing laser is a safe and effective mainstay of aesthetic treatments.

1. Clear + Brilliant Laser is the Goldilocks laser

Some rejuvenation lasers are “too hot” or “too cold” going by Goldilocks’ porridge spectrum i.e. they tend to have too long a downtime for working adults to bear or offer limited results despite having downtime.

The Clear + Brilliant Laser, on the other hand, may find favour with Goldilocks – a comfortable middle ground. Patients typically walk out of our clinics with a slight sunburn which goes away after 1-2 days.

This makes the Clear + Brilliant Laser suitable for a weekend treatment and recovery while delivering results.

2. Clear + Brilliant Laser Tightens Pore Size On the Face

“How do I reduce ?” is a common question many of my patients ask me. While you cannot strictly speaking “close pores”, you can shrink, minimise, and tighten the appearance of enlarged, open pores on your face.

This can be achieved with Clear + Brilliant Laser.

After a few days of rosy pinkness and slight flakiness, your much-hated pores will appear less obvious. Ladies you may even find that you can cut back on makeup!

To continue to tighten pores and maintain the results, I recommend that you repeat the Clear + Brilliant Laser on a monthly basis.

3. No Pain, No Gain, Right? Think Again!

With numbing cream, this procedure is bearable and may even be comfortable for some.

You’ll feel a warm prickle as I work the Clear + Brilliant Laser over your face. Because it is a non-ablative fractional laser, side effects commonly associated with harsher lasers are minimised.

4. Clear + Brilliant Laser is FDA-approved

Clear + Brilliant Laser has met the stringent standards of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, for skin rejuvenation.

Rather than hear me continue to wax and wane about the brilliance of the Clear + Brilliant Laser, come find it out for yourself. Make an appointment today!
