No dermal filler especially Voluma should be used after the expiration date. The procedure requires advanced injection technique. It should be performed by an expert and experienced physician injector. Such an injector would be able to utilize the product regularly enough that expired product is never a consideration. Consult with 3 experienced and expert physician injectors to understand your options.
