Its been one week since Voluma and I still have the hard lumps. Its tender but not nearly like before. How much longer will it be like this? I was told to give it 5 weeks for it to take full effect. Thank you!
Answer: Dermal fillers Hi @susysed! I would recommend waiting a full two weeks! If you are unhappy with the results after two weeks, you can dissolve the product with Hylenex. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Juverderm Voluma Hello susysed, Thanks for your question! It’s common to have bruising and swelling after Voluma injections. The lumps or nodules that you are feeling are common after a dermal filler is injected. I recommend massaging the area multiple times per day until you no longer feel them. If they persists, I recommend seeing your plastic surgeon, Maximum results typically take 1-2 weeks to show. I’d recommend applying over the counter Arnica ointment on the area injected or taking Arnica pills three times a day for a quicker recovery. Good luck! Dr. De La Cruz.

Answer: Juvederm Voluma hard lumps...time line for assimilation? Thank you for sharing your question and congratulations on your treatment! Voluma swelling typically resolves in the first 1-2 weeks with softening of the filler taking place over 2-4. Hang in there and you should see steady improvement as you have already noted in the first week. hope this helps.

Answer: Voluma Needs Time To Settle In Swelling is common after filler injections, Voluma included. Because Voluma is a bulkier filler lumps can be seen soon after injection. It can take up two weeks for it to settle in. You can do gentle massage in place to help soften things up. If lumps and tenderness worsen or persist after 2 weeks then you should follow up with your injector for an evaluation. Worse comes to worse you can have the filler dissolved using Hyaluronidase. Hope this helps answer your question. Best wishes.

Answer: Lumps after Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella) There can be some swelling and/or lumps after lip injections which can last 1-2 weeks. You can apply firm pressure between two fingers on the lips for a few days, for 5 mins a time, in order to help decrease swelling and even out the lumps. If you're unhappy with your final results you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. Best, Dr. Emer
