JUVEDERM VOLUMA™ XC is the first and only hyaluronic acid filler approved by the FDA to treat moderate to severe wrinkles of the cheeks in adults age 21 and over. As people age, the cheeks lose volume, causing them to flatten out and the skin to droop and sag.

Lawrenceville, Ga. (February 5, 2014) – Gwinnett Medical Center (GMC) recently became only the second hospital in Georgia, and the first in North Metro Atlanta, to conduct a subcutaneous implantable cardiac defibrillator (SICD) procedure. Recently approved by the FDA, SICD has advantages over the conventional implanted defibrillators in that it does not require a wire into the heart.
