Can I use DDR3L SODIMM instead of DDR3 SODIMM

I have a Asus laptop x552vl-sx031d and I have pushed it up to 8GB DDR3 (2x4GB). Since I'm a software developer I really need more than that.

So I wanted to buy 8GB DDR3L modules to replace my DDR3 modules, but I have two questions about that before I do.

1) Will it even work

I know that DDR3L should be backward compatible with DDR3 in terms of voltage, so it should work both on 1.35 and 1.5V as I understand.

2) Will it be recognized and addressed correctly by my motherboard

Not much to add here. Just want to be sure not to buy modules and have them working but only to realize that my computer still only uses 8GB instead of 16GB

Any help is appreciated
