Hello! I had 2 syringes of voluma injected 5 days ago. I love the results. Very little bruising and not much swelling. They looked even too. Last night I gave in to sleeping on my sides a bit. I did notice my right cheek hurt a bit more this morning and it looks higher and harder than the left. Not sure if I should do anything or simply give it some time to see if it resolves itself. Could the fact that I slept on it a bit last night cause the voluma to "shift" somehow?

Answer: Voluma for the cheeks Give it two weeks and if it is still uneven, have them compare your before and after photos for evaluation. Most people are not symmetric to begin with and photos can be helpful in this instance. It can always be dissolved if needed but your results look good for being 5 days out. Best of luck!

Answer: One cheek higher 5 days after Voluma injections, should I do something or give it some time? Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. In the first few days after filler placement you can have a "sharp" look to the area of treatment which typically softens over the first 2-4 weeks. Because Voluma is a very thick gel, and placed deeper into the face it is unlikely that you shifted it. I would advocate allowing your results more time to mature, you can speed healing by sleeping with your head elevated with an extra pillow or two behind your back and consider arnica montana/bromelain supplementation. Hope this helps.
