I got Juvederm Voluma 3 weeks ago only in cheeks. It was NOT injected in tear troughs . Despite icing, head elevation, I wake up every morning with very noticeable under-eye puffiness that almost all disappears in the evening (still there but much less noticeable). Will this resolve or do I need to get it dissolved. I am worried about the side effects and unpredictablity of injecting hyurolonidase, but I look really tired from the under-eye puffiness. Thank you.
Answer: Puffiness after injections Swelling is very common after filler injections and some people hold on to swelling longer than others. If you don't see a change after 6-7 weeks post injection contact your provider.

Answer: Eye puffiness after Voluma Thank you for your question.It is difficult to make a recommendation without seeing any photos. I would recommend following up with your injector to see what their recommendations are for this problem. You can have some swelling after injections, but at 3 weeks it may be a persistent problem for you. Good luck.

Answer: Prolonged Swelling after Voluma Injection Hi and thank you for sharing your question here! In some unusual cases, Voluma or other hyaluronic acid fillers may absorb some additional fluids once injected, and this can cause some fluctuating swelling throughout the day. If the condition has not been improved after at least two weeks following the initial injection, I recommend to remove it by injecting hyaluronidase (preferably the recombinant form, e.g. Hylenex). Hylenex is not expected to have any long-term effects on your own tissue. I hope it helps and good luck!

Answer: Swelling Cessation After Cheek Filler Injection Like Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero I suggest reversing the filler your body may have a swelling response to it. Hyaluronidase will not hurt your normal skin. Best, Dr. Eemr.
