I had voluma dissolved from my cheeks three days ago. Approximately .5cc voluma per cheek according to my injector. She flooded the area, massaged and I had no adverse effects (fingers crossed) other than some bruising and swelling. She says that it's all gone and I won't need anymore hyaluronidase. Is this possible? I want to make absolutely sure so I don't have any issues down the road. Have you ever been able to dissolve Voluma in just one session?? Should I have another round just in case?
