Juvéderm® VOLBELLA® XC with lidocaine is one of the newest lip enhancement solutions from Allergan. This smooth gel filler is especially designed for the lips and mouth area, and can be administered by an experienced aesthetic injector, such as James Christian Sardelli, RPA-C.
An ultra-fine needle is used to inject the lips are perioral areas. It smooths lines and wrinkles around the mouth area, and can add volume and shape to the lips. The hyaluronic acid in this formula helps attract and retain moisture. Results last for up to one year, according to clinical trials.
What to Avoid After Treatment
Treatment only takes a few minutes. It’s best not to wear makeup for up to 12 hours after administration to avoid irritation. You should also avoid going in the sun and into saunas for two weeks.
Side effects are mild and uncommon. Clinical trials resulted in some temporary tenderness, swelling, and/or bruising at the injection sites.
About the Lidocaine Included

Volbella XC Reviews
On the site RealSelf.com, a few women received the treatment and were happy with it.
User jennahnewton reported, “Lips are numbed so you can’t feel much at all. Immediate results. The whole procedure was quick. Somewhere sore for about a day but I could still eat, drink, apply makeup, and talk just fine. Bruising just on the lips. Bruising is common and I just covered it up with lipstick.”
User SandyF reported, “I’m a 45 year old with full lips but very concerned about the lines around my lips. The lidocaine in it works so well when my Dr. made a few touch ups I felt nothing on the second pass. Overall, I’m very pleased – my lips are just a tiny bit fuller and still swollen in my pix but those damn smoker lines are almost completely gone!”
