Asked By:lindyshellp in Connecticut, CT

At age 41 I had 2 vials of Sculptra with no issues. At 46 I had 2 more and developed a delayed reaction with burning and redness in my cheeks. Needed to be placed on steroids and the symptoms took a long time (months) to abate with lingering redness. I am now almost 49 and would like to try Voluma for joweling. I have had Juvaderm in last 2 years with no issue. How likely am I to have an adverse reaction to Voluma?
