Used voluma in cheeks. Does it look uneven?

Question

I had 1 syringe of voluma injected into each cheek, and I think it looks a bit uneven. Is it noticeable and worth adding more to one side?

Hi @Kathleen6565!  I would wait two weeks to allow swelling to subside. If you still notice asymmetry after two weeks, you can add more to one side. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Often people need touch ups after the first treatment as it takes a step wise approach to getting optimal correction.  Please see an expert for a facial sculpting evaluation.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Kathleen. You do seem to have some asymmetry after your Voluma injections. Some things to keep in mind though: 1. It may still be some swelling after your injection, which is common. The swelling can take up to 2 weeks to fully resolve. 2. Most people have some noticeable asymmetry to their faces. If it has been more than 2 weeks and you still have some asymmetry then a little more Voluma can be added to improve things. Just remember though that perfect symmetry is pretty much impossible to attain. Hope this helps answer your question!

Has it been 2 weeks since your injections? If not then wait because you could still be swollen. Otherwise, see your surgeon to be assessed in person.Kindly,Kouros Azar

Depending on how long ago you got the injection. Wait at least two weeks and evaluate if the asymmetry persists either add or remove product were needed.Good luck!
