If when you smile, you still have fillers in your cheeks that are prominent. Would getting Voluma make your cheeks look big?

Question

Robert F. Centeno, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  When you smile your cheek fat pad goes up and makes our cheeks look fuller than they actually are.  If small amounts of volume are placed in each cheek, it typically does not make you look too full unless your cheeks were very full to begin with.  By adding volume, Voluma by definition fills the cheek in an effort to lift the midface.  Discuss your concerns with your surgeon prior to injection.  Best wishes.

Voluma will make your cheeks look like they did years ago- not big!  Defined and Young!Look at before and afters from your physician and look at pictures of yourself several years ago.If you stay thin as you age… your cheeks lose volume- be skinny everywhere else but have chubby cheeks!

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

It depends on the amount and the placement of the filler. Every person has different genes which makes muscles, smiles, and cheeks entirely different for each person. This, plus the artistic skill of your injector will play into how your fillers look. So, if you want an answer on what we would suggest for you, please post a photo of you smiling and not smiling, so we can see what we are dealing with and give you the best answer! "This
