Drs. Persky and Sunder are certified Voluma de Maio Technique Master Injectors. Our patients, staff, and physicians have been impressed with the ability of Voluma to re-volumize the face. Amazing, almost magical transformations can be created using this unique revolutionary filler.

Voluma is a hyaluronic acid (like Juvederm) which because of chemical cross-linking can last up to two years, and is able to lift lax facial tissue immediately better than any other FDA approved filler. It has

been used safely worldwide since 2008 (Mauricio de Maio,MD San Paulo, Brazil has written a book on his experience, and personally trained both Dr. Persky and Dr. Sunder). It was FDA approved for use in the USA and we have been using it since December, 2013.

Voluma is approved for “on label” use on the bones of the cheek, creating natural volumization and curves that transition the cheeks, eyes, nasolabial folds, and even the jaw line. We are now using the product “off-label” in the subcutaneous tissues of the face, it can even be diluted for use in the lips and other areas. It can be injected with non-traumatic blunt tipped canullas with decreased discomfort and minimal bruising. It is
“Hollywood’s New Facial Aesthetic Secret” for looking naturally great.

Voluma is more costly than other fillers because of it’s unique lifting qualities and it’s up to two year effects. The only limiting factor to re-creation of the youthful facial fullness of decades past is the cost of the product and the artistic vision, skill, and experience of the injecting physician. Fortunately for our patients, both Dr. Persky and Dr. Sunder share a natural “da Vinci” artistic vision of classical facial proportions (The Golden or Phi Ratio), are both long time experienced aesthetic injectors, and are Master Voluma injectors. Beautiful, natural results can be obtained with proper use of Voluma. We like to combine Voluma with other fillers such as Sculptra when indicated for patients with volume loss throughout their face.

Dr. Persky has recently presented lectures on Voluma and Sculptra at Vegas Cosmetic Surgery 2014 and State of the Art in Facial Aesthetics 2014 (Atlanta, GA).
