Answer: Discomfort and numbness after Voluma Thank you for your question ghshuaib. I understand your concern. Voluma is a filler used to enhance the appearance of the face. With any injection there is the possibility that a nerve is irritated, which can lead to numbness and discomfort. This is usually temporary and will resolve on its own. Patience is important. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Answer: Numbness & pain post Voluma I don't think this is something to be concerned about. It sounds as if a facial nerve got irritated which can happen. It should resolve on it's own in 2-4 weeks. However, let your surgeon know how you are feeling as he or she may want to examine you in person.
