Juvéderm Voluma XC for Temple Hollows Receives U.S. FDA Approval

Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, announced the U.S. FDA approval of Juvéderm Voluma XC for injection in the temple region to improve moderate to severe temple hollowing in adults over the age of 21. Juvéderm Voluma XC is the first and only hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler to receive U.S. FDA approval for the improvement of moderate to severe temple hollowing with results lasting up to 13 months with optimal treatment.

“The approval of Juvéderm Voluma XC to treat temple hollows further demonstrates Allergan Aesthetics commitment to innovation and addressing patient needs,” said Carrie Strom, President, Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President, AbbVie. “This is the first U.S. FDA approval of a hyaluronic acid dermal filler for use in the upper face and addresses a real unmet need for patients.”

Juvéderm Voluma XC temporarily adds volume to immediately lift and augment the shape, contour, and structure of the temple, creating a smooth transition from the cheekbone to the forehead, balancing a patient’s overall facial shape. In a clinical study, more than 80% of subjects had at least a one-point improvement in moderate to severe temple hollowing three months after treatment, and the improvement lasted for more than one year (73%). Additionally, more than 85% of clinical trial subjects were satisfied with how balanced, well-proportioned, and symmetric their face looked three months after treatment.
