Will ice help ? Will ice affect the quality of the voluma that has been injected?
Answer: Bruising after Voluma Icing after injections may help minimize swelling and/or bruising and it will not affect the product injected – Voluma or otherwise. We like to numb the area before and apply ice before to reduce the chance for after swelling and bruising. Additional precautions like sleeping with your head elevated, using oral/topical Arnica supplements/gel, and taking turmeric may also help expedite the healing process. For future appointments, make sure to avoid blood thinners (NSAIDs, aspirin) 7-10 days before your appointment and always go to an experienced board-certified injector.

Answer: Bruising after Voluma Bruising can occur after Voluma treatment, but it is usually minimal. Ice applied to the treated area may help minimize swelling and bruising and will not affect the Voluma itself. You may want to consider taking Arnica as a supplement to help with the bruising. It comes in both a pill and cream form and is available in most vitamin stores.

Answer: Voluma and use of ice post treatment It is perfectly fine to use ice post procedure for the minimization of bruising, which is always a possibility, and I always make sure that patients are aware that this could happen especially if a patient has been taking aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil or other blood thinners. Bruises will resolve within a few days usually. You could take a supplement called Arnica Montana orally or there is also a topical gel that is effective as well. I always apply an ice pack pre injection to help minimize bruising.

Answer: Bruising after Juvederm Voluma Injections Anytime you have an injection, there is a risk of a bruise. I inject Juvederm Voluma with a blunt tipped microcannula instead of a needle to decrease the risk of a bruise. If you develop a bruise I would:1) Take the supplement Arnica Montana 2) Cold compress for 2 days3) Switch to warm compress after 2 days. The warm compressed with help the bruise resolve.I hope this helps.

Answer: Ice after Voluma Ice will have no affect on your Voluma and I often have patients ice after injection. Another treatment that is helpful with injection is an herbal supplement, Arnica Montana, which you can find at a local health food store and has been shown to help decrease bruising and resolve it faster. Best of luck!
