I got VolumaLift Juvederm to my cheecks yesterday based on recommendation of a well trusted physician that I saw his work on friends. However, I am noticing that one cheek is fuller than the other, and both cheecks are developing pain which I didn't experience during or the first night after application. I regret having the treatment and am concerned of the long term effect even if I have the fillers removed. Any advice on next step would be greatly appreciated.

Answer: Juvederm Voluma Benefits One of the best things about these hyaluronic acid products is that we can continue to sculpt and contour them even after they have been injected. Once the initial swelling subsides, you can return to your Doctor and have them "adjust" it. This would be the best way to address the situation.The next best thing would be to dissolve the unwanted product using hyaluronidase. This always works. However, we encourage patients to be patient before removing Juvederm Voluma, Juverdern Ultra Plus or Restylane products. I would recommend waiting at least a month after your provider try to readjust the material.On a personal note. I recently asked one of our injectors to inject just one lower eyelid region with Voluma - and ask that it be placed in the wrong plane... that is to create a bump. My purpose was to demonstrate how these products can be adjusted after the fact. We did record this but it is not yet posted.These are wonderful products, so please be patient and go back to see you provider.

Answer: Voluma Injections for the Face Voluma is a fantastic injection for the mid face. Sometimes it can take up to two weeks for the swelling or asymmetry to resolve. I would suggest you wait it out and then return to your treating dermatologist to assess if you need more product or need the Voluma to be dissolved.
