Asked By:sandramccarthy in Agoura Hills, CA

I had Voluma injections in my cheeks in January 2018. I have 2 huge pockets under my eyes that look like water filled balloons and dark circles. I went to a doctor and he said its from the Voluma...OMG im so frightened and my beautiful skin looks horrible. What do i do? is this fixable? Ive done injections before with the same doctor every 3 years and never experience anything like this...my age is 56
