I am 46 years old and I'm getting 2 tubes of Voluma. How bad is the brushing and recovery time. Also does it really last 2 years??
Answer: Bruising & Voluma The amount of bruising is really going to depend on the individual patient and how your body heals. Obviously, if you are on blood thinners, it will increase your bruising. Icing the area helps with both the bruising and swelling. Kindly,Kouros Azar

Answer: How bad do you bruise after having Voluma? Thank you for your question. Bruising is expected after filler injections. Application of a soft ice pack immediately after treatment can minimize swelling and bruising. It is difficult to say how bad the bruising will be, as every patient is different. There is virtually no recovery time so you will be able to return to your normal schedule. However, I advise my patients to avoid activities that cause facial flushing; this includes exercising, saunas, alcohol consumption, heat application, etc. until swelling resolves. Voluma is proven to last up to two years. However, if you want to maintain your results, it will be beneficial to follow up with your injecting physician around 18 months for an exam and possible injection. I have been very impressed with the longevity of Voluma.

Answer: Voluma Thank you for your question in regards to Voluma. Bruising is common after filler injectors but can vary from patient to patient, also on the injectors experience. To be sure, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Voluma injections may cause less frequent but more intense bruising if it occurs then more superficial fillers Although bruising is not very common with fillers, it certainly does happen and one should always schedule accordingly. Even if you have had the same doctor inject the same filler for years, you shouldn't undergo an injection within two weeks of a very important social or work-related function as bruising can happen any time. Voluma is typically injected deeper than Juvederm, Belotero and Restylane. It is thicker and requires a slightly larger diameter needle which if perforating a blood vessel in the deep planes could cause a larger bruise than seen with the more superficial fillers and there could be a delay of a few days before noticing it. Bruising is often hidden with the use of concealer and makeup. Vbeam laser can help reduce the bruising at a quicker rate than your own body's ability to clear the discoloration.The information provided in Dr. Shelton's
