6 months ago I had 1 ml Juvederm Voluma as cheek filler but the doctor placed it other then the cheek (beetween ear and eye see picture). I hate the result. I feel like my face is pulled up and it feels streched. Two weeks ago I had a terrible week with bad sleeping and one day I woke up and saw that the corner of my mouth was torn down. I see a deep line there and also right under my eye there is a long wrinkle that was not there before. Can it be that my skin is ruined because it is streched?

Answer: Unhappy with Voluma results Hello and thank you for your question. Typically, fillers do not do much harm to our skin when injected properly. In your case, it seems the placement of the fillers was not ideal for your goals and might have also been injected too superficially in some areas. Voluma can last you up to 2 years, so I suggest that you have a follow up visit with your doctor and have him/her dissolve the unwanted filler with hyaluronidase. This should resolve the issue you are having without causing your skin to look stretched out. Best of luck!

Answer: Voluma The inner pressure exerted by fillers on the skin prevents the skin from losing elasticity. So, it is a facial rejuvenation technique also that can smooth out folds and wrinkles, add volume or contour facial features that have lost their fulness due to aging, etc. It will not stretch the skin. Consult with your doctor to know the best treatment for you.
