Visible Juverderm lumps in cheek and temple 1 month after - is it due to superficial placement? (photos)

LookingGlass80Feb 11, 2022
Over a month ago I had 1 unit of Juvederm Ultra XC placed superficially in my temples, and 1 unit placed in corner of jaw, masseter area and buccal area. The temples have a visible indentation on both sides of the placed filler, towards the orbital rim and hairline. The filler protrudes more when I smile. Also, I can see in certain lighting both a bolus of filler in my masseter and buccal area. Is it due to superficial placement? Would more filler blend them in? Or should I remove it?

Hi there, It is highly unlikely it has anything to do with the filler. I would suggest an appt with your PCP. Best of luck!

Thanks for your question. As I am sure you are aware, most are reluctant to give medicine to pregnant and nursing women. This is the same for injectables. Most will not inject fillers until 3 months after you are done nursing. Please tell your well trained experienced injector all about your...

Fillers like Belotero, Volbella, and Restylane Silk are good for improving under the eyes, but keep in mind that a combination approach will give the most improvement. My patients try to get non-surgical treatments to avoid surgery, so we use fillers, lasers, microneedling/PRP and stem cells. I...
