It is unfortunate how time can affect the appearance. The skin may lose its natural elasticity and collagen stores, developing fine lines and deep creases. Fat stores, which give the face healthy volume, also decline with age. Coupled with the effects of smoking, stress, sun damage, and genetics, your face can suddenly look years older than you really are. However, at The Choe Center’s Med Spa in Virginia Beach our most trusted plastic surgeon, Dr. Kyle Choe has an answer to the aging face: the Volume Lift. Without surgery, a lengthy recovery, or risk of serious complications, the Volume Lift at The Choe Center can smooth wrinkles, restore lost facial volume, and enhance the lips/jawline.

The Volume Lift was designed to rejuvenate the appearance by focusing on the natural ‘V’ shape of the face. The technique, similar to a liquid facelift, centers on the organic structure of the face, from the chin to the temples. Using this as his template, Dr. Choe employs the most innovative selection of dermal fillers and muscle-paralyzing Botox to create a youthful, refreshed look.

Your Volume Lift Consultation
