Is normal to feel the Juvederm Voluma on my cheek?

Great question! Sometimes after Voluma injections, patients can feel the product under their skin. Seeing as your injections were only 2 days ago, this sounds completely normal. The tenderness that you are experiencing is most likely due to being injected. The discomfort should resolve within a week or so after being injected. You may be able to feel the product, but that should also go away in the first couple of weeks after your treatment. Voluma is a very safe product and given your timeline, your concerns seem to be normal post-injection symptoms. However it's important to listen to you body and if your pain gets worse or does not resolve in a reasonable amount of time, I suggest scheduling an appointment with the physician who did the injections. That way they can take a look in person and assess the situation in more detail. Good luck!

Thank you for your question.  It is very normal to feel fillers under the skin.  I often tell my patients not to mold/massage fillers that they can feel and that it should continue to soften with each week that passes.  If it is causing you discomfort after a week or you see something of concern, then I would return to your injector to be re-evaluated.

Thanks for your question.  It is not uncommon to feel the filler soon after it is injected, but usually it will soften, and most patients do not find it uncomfortable.  If you find that this is not happening you could contact your injector and make sure it is settling normally.

Volume, indicated for mid face/cheek augmentation, in our experience is indeed more 'palpable' for a few days after injection. This typically lessens and improves in a few days. Its firmness does help elevate and enhance the upper cheek tissue. 

you should not feel voluma even with a lot of filler injection.  it should be on bone or in the fat and smooth.  if you feel nodules after multiple weeks, you may need reversal or to wait some time for it to dissolve from the body.  Best, Dr. Emer.

For the first few days after Voluma is injected into the cheeks, I would say that it is possible for it to feel firm.  With time, this should resolve and the area should feel softer.  

Since the injection was so recent, it is not uncommon to have some minor swelling and sometimes be able to feel the product.  It should soften over the next few days, and the resulting discomfort you're experiencing should subside as well.  If after two weeks you are still experiencing issues with your treatment I recommend contacting your injector for an evaluation.

Juvederm Voluma is an excellent product for increasing the malar area and lifting the nasolabial lines away from the face. You may feel initially that there is product there but it should not look lumpy or injected too high in the skin.  If it doesn't look right you should definitely return to your treating physician for examination.  Best, Dr. Green

I have Voluma in my own face and the times it was injected, I did "feel it" for a few days after.  The feeling goes away, however and you should have good results.Younger women need less Voluma for great results.  As you age, better and longer lasting fillers will be available.  It's best to start young and not let your face "fall" as you age.

Two days out its normal to feel what you do.     There may be a bruise associated with the injection.  Don't massage unless you were instructed  sometimes we inject directly to fill out the nasolabial fold and other times we fill out the cheek mound. Spitting one syringe for both cheeks is a very conservative amount.  Wait and see how you like it --- as you can always add more
