Volufiline (vuhl-yoo-fuh-leen )
The Plumping Ingredient
Volufiline is a patented ingredient used in skincare that is known for its lipo-filling or volume enhancing effects. It’s often included in products that aim to restore a youthful, plump look to the skin. 🎊 you had me at “restore youthful”
🔬 How Does Volufiline Work?
The main active component of Volufiline is sarsasapogenin, an oil-soluble extract from the roots of the Asian plant Anemarrhena asphodeloides.
✨ Common Applications in Skincare
Volufiline is typically found in serums and creams designed for:
• Targeted Plumping: Areas of the face that tend to lose volume with age, such as cheeks, temples, under-eyes, and smile lines.
• Smoothing Wrinkles: The plumping effect can help to visibly smooth out the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Body Contouring: It is sometimes used in products for the breasts or buttocks to promote a fuller appearance.
Hello Costco, do you carry Volufiline I need a couple of vats! 🤭
⚠️ Important Considerations
• Not a Replacement for Filler: While often marketed as “topical filler,” dermatologists generally note that the effects are much subtler and temporary compared to injectable dermal fillers.
• Use in Formulations: Volufiline is a raw material, and as such, should only be used in professionally formulated skincare products, not applied directly to the skin on its own.
