What is the meaning of Facial Volume Restoration?
Our team of dedicates Nurses working alongside Doctor Mark Jeffery use a substance (hyaluronic acid) that is injected beneath the epidermal layer to achieve fuller and more symmetrical lips. They are also used to add volume to cheeks and sculpt areas such as the chin and are also used to smooth deeper facial lines.
How Does it work?
Our TGA approved substances are composed of naturally occurring sugar molecules found in your body that occupy your skin, tendons and muscles.
These sugar molecules act as a lubricant and shock absorber within the moving parts of your body. They are also needed to transport nutrients in your skin. By boosting your skin with these sugar molecules, the target area is revitalised and inflated almost immediately.
By revitalising areas suffering from collagen depletion, the appearance of lines, wrinkles and furrows is diminished which leaves behind skin with a much more natural and softer appearance.
Which Products Do you Use?
Oo La La offers a vast range of TGA approved products to address facial volume loss. Your treating Doctor or Nurse will advise which product is best suited to your areas of concern, depending on the location, longevity and results you desire.
The Therapeutic Goods Association (TGA) prevent doctors from advertising the names of prescription medicines, which is why we cannot specifically name the brands of products that can aid in the restauration of facial volume loss. A consultation is required before the administration of such products.
Common Treatment Areas
- Skin creases (laugh,jaw lines and nasoliabial folds)
- Cheeks
- Lips

The Procedure
Schedule a consultation with our Cosmetic Doctor where you will discuss your concerns and explore desired outcomes so a treatment plan can be created for you. In most cases you may even be able to proceed with the suggested treatment on the day.
Does the procedure hurt?
Depending on the area, treatment can require the use of a local anaesthetic or cold packs to make the procedure more comfortable for the patient.
Some products already contain local anaesthetic which makes the treatment tolerable.
How long will the appointment take?
Allow 30 to 60 minutes for your treatment.
The Results
Generally, the outcome of your treatment will take up to 3 days to appear, as the area may swell directly after your appointment.
Our products are long-lasting, with cosmetic companies suggesting 8 -18 months, depending on the type of product used, injection area and your personal biology.
Before & After Volume Restauration
Side Effects
Generally, side effects are temporary and restricted to the treatment area. You may experience temporary swelling and – or bruising.
Is it safe to get facial volume treatments or mimic muscle therapy after the Covid vaccine?
There is no official guideline that recommends avoiding these treatments alongside your COVID-19 vaccine.
Oolala Cosmetic & Laser Clinic will not treat any clients for volume loss or mimic muscle therapy treatments for minimum 2 weeks before or after your Covid vaccine. This is to avoid any potential adverse reactions occurring at the time when your treatment is settling in. Potential side effects of the treatments or the vaccination cannot be mistaken for one another.
Price
Our comprehensive range of TGA approved Volume enhancement products start at $500.00 per ml.
