Is it safe to use Voluma if the expiration date is expired?

It is totally common to have swelling after any kind of filler and swelling in one area can certainly distort the look of another area. This should subside in the next few weeks. If it does not or if it gets worse then contact your surgeon.Kindly,Kouros Azar

Voluma, when placed properly, won't make your face rounder. It will make your cheekbones more chiseled by filling in the "sunken" area in the mid-face. Whether or not this is the right course of action for your individual face is not something that can be determined without an in person exam....

No. The Voluma doesn't "stretch" out your skin. In fact, HA fillers often stimulate collagen production. Just make sure that you see a very qualified injector as expertise plays a huge role in your results.Kindly,Kouros Azar

Voluma is supposed to be placed deep preferably over the bone.  To do this the injector must inject the needle through your muscle.  Most of my patients notice it when they go to eat since the masseter chewing muscle is the one that takes the brunt of action, and typically lasts only 3-4 days.T...

Every patient reacts differently, but, in general, any post op swelling from Voluma should resolve within the first 2 weeks. So, for now, be patient and wait. If you still don't like what you see at 2 weeks post op then schedule an appointment to see your surgeon.Kindly,Kouros Azar

Hi @Kathleen6565! I would wait two weeks to allow swelling to subside. If you still notice asymmetry after two weeks, you can add more to one side. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!
