HOW JUVÉDERM WORKS FOR YOU
Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery is excited to offer an exciting new option for women with thin, dull lips. Juvederm Volbella® is an injectable filler designed specifically for the lips and peri-oral area. In minutes, this noninvasive treatment can shape the lips for a luscious pout.
The plumping power of Volbella® will also fill in frustrating lip lines, sometimes referred to as “smoker’s lines,” providing a more youthful appearance.
Is Juvéderm the Right Choice?
Visiting Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery gives Dr. Paul Vitenas the chance to learn all about you, your cosmetic goals, and your lifestyle, so he can select the right treatment in a way that aligns with all three.
You’re likely a great candidate for this treatment if you’re interested in an effective way to:
- Plump and contour the lips
- Eliminate fine lines (Smoker’s Lines) around the lips
- Define lip shape and border
- Balance asymmetrical lips
- Enhance the Cupid’s Bow, or indentation above the top lip
A Cutting-Edge Procedure
Volbella® is an innovative dermal filler, utilizing Juvederm’s cutting-edge Vycross® technology. The super smooth filler results in easy injections and creates unsurpassed results. Volbella® is made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance that creates structure within the tissues by increasing hydration. Over time, the HA boosts the body’s production of collagen, meaning long-lasting results. Juvederm Volbella® can bring beautiful lips that last up to 12 months.
The Ideal Candidate
Approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a safe and effective way to improve the shape and definition of the lips, Volbella® is an excellent choice for almost everyone. Juvéderm Volbella® is safe for men and women over 21, of all skin types and ethnicities.
Anyone with an allergy to lidocaine or gram-positive bacteria, with a history of scarring, as well as women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, should avoid the treatment. Side effects are minor, and can include temporary redness, bruising, and itching.
Volbella® has a lower HA content than other fillers, meaning less swelling after treatment. More serious complications, such as excessive bleeding, infection, and nerve damage are rare, especially when under the care of an experienced injector like Dr. Vitenas.
The Expertise and Experience You Can Trust
Dr. Paul Vitenas brings patients in the Houston area more than 30 years of aesthetic experience, so you know that you can count on natural looking results that subtly enhance your existing good looks.

Juvéderm VolbellaFAQ
Juvéderm Volbella® is a hyaluronic acid filler, created specifically to plump the lips, enhance lip borders, and smooth lip lines.
The ideal candidate for Volbella® will be over 21, in generally good health, and frustrated with the appearance of small, flat lips. Potential patients should understand the Volbella® treatment and have realistic expectations for their final results.
Dr. Vitenas performs all Volbella® injections in one of his private treatment rooms at Vitenas Cosmetic Surgery, located on the corner of Richmond Avenue and Drexel Avenue in Houston.
Juvederm Volbella® is not considered painful, although patients can expect a slight pinch during each injection. Premixed with a local anesthetic, lidocaine, the lips are lightly numbed with each Volbella® injection.
Topical anesthesia only is necessary for Volbella® injections. The lip filler is premixed with lidocaine for patient comfort.
A Volbella® session will take between 15 and 30 minutes to complete.
Patients can note immediate results from their Volbella injections. Over the next several months, as the HA gel holds in moisture and encourages the body’s collagen production, the lips will continue to look smooth and plump.
Volbella is a long-lasting lip filler. The results can be seen immediately and will last for up to a full year.
No downtime is required after injections with Juvederm Volbella®. Patients are free to resume their normal activities the same afternoon, including work, school, and exercise.
