Men who want to look their best in a natural way are turning up at our office for Voluma treatment. Both Sarmela Sunder, MD and Michael Persky, MD are de Maio Master Injection Technique Voluma trained. We share a natural artistic vision with our patients. The artistic aesthetic for men is different. Drs. Persky and Sunder respect the gender difference creating masculine beauty in men.
Academy Award Best Supporting Actor Jered Leto and Best Actor Matthew McConaughey stars of “The Dallas Buyers Club” are an excellent examples of the relatively straight, strong masculine angles of the natural male cheek. Gwyneth Paltrow has the fuller and more curved natural feminine cheek of the female.
With just 1 to 2 syringes of Voluma in most of our patients, the hands of time are turned back in fifteen minutes. The treatment is quick with minimal discomfort as our nurse simultaneously touches the patients skin with ice as Voluma is placed. There is the possibility of swelling for 2 to 3 days, and if bruising occurs it may take 3 to 5 days to resolve (we treat patients a very small minority of patients who bruise with electro-magetic field energy which helps speed resolution). We like to see our patients for a “face check” 7 to 10 days after their Voluma treatment to make sure the product, which lasts up to 2 years, is smooth and that the patients face is symmetric. Often times patients request more volume at this visit, if appropriate a small amount can be added. One of the benefits of conservative Voluma treatment is that it can be “tweaked” in small increments.
The most important aspect of Voluma treatment from a patient standpoint is to make sure to choose your injecting physician most carefully to insure beautiful aesthetically pleasing results in the safest, most efficient and pain free manner.
Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns regarding Voluma or any facial plastic surgical topic. Be well.
