On 07/22/15, I had a syringe of Voluma injected in the right side of my jaw to achieve symmetry. I also had a syringe of Radiesse in my chin to augment it. I was told both of these would last up to a year. The Voluma vanished so quick that after two months I went in and got 1 more syringe of Radiesse in my jawline. It is now 01/22/2016 and pretty much all effects of Radiesse and Voluma are gone. Is this really how little they last?
