It's been 4 days since i had my cheeks filled with 2ml Voluma: My cheeks look uneven and both still feel quite firm. (Photos)

Question

I can feel the product build up more in my right cheek than my left. Both cheeks still feel "lumpy" although swelling has subsided. Im wondering if these types of fillers even out and settle into the cheeks after some time? Im seeing my injector in two weeks for my review and just asking if it may improve?. I have also attached photos. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your question and photos.  If it is not very painful or expanding, you should be okay to wait.  Often there may be irregularities early on.  Ice can also be helpful in the early period.  Many times it is possible to manipulate the injectable and smooth it out.  Please make your injector aware of your concerns.  They will help guide you through.Jeffrey J.

Swelling can be typical. Icing and cold compresses may give improvement. I would wait a full 2 weeks before judging the results. If it is after the two week wait, you can have the filler reversed with hyaluronidase.
I hope this helps!
