had voluma for cheeks augmentation. I have 2 questions: 1) When can I evaluate the final result after injection? I know that the result are immediate but I heard that the product needs some time to settle into its final shape. 2) Secondly, when is the best time for a follow up to add more voluma in case I am not fully satisfied with the result?
Answer: Voluma result Dear Eye_fix,Post-injection swelling and bruising can last up to two weeks so I advise all of my patients to wait until at least two weeks before making any decisions on wanting to add more. At that time, my patients can choose if they want a touch-up.Best regards,Nima Shemirani

Answer: When Can You Evaluate Final Voluma Result? Voluma Results Are Almost Immediate You should start to see results from Voluma very quickly after your treatment. You may have some bruising and swelling for a few days. Once that settles down, you'll get a good idea of your final result. The hyaluronic acid in Voluma is hydrophilic, which means it immediately starts to attract water into the injected areas to volumize the skin. Voluma tends to swell less than the other HAs, as it uses Vycross technology. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of our skin that keeps it plump with moisture. Aging depletes our natural stores of HA; Voluma restores them. To be sure that results are natural looking, we like to be conservative when restoring volume to the face, so the best dermatologists will usually be careful not to over-inject Voluma. Keeping before-and-after photos with consistent lighting will help you see the benefits of treatment. As for when and if you want to add more, that's up to you. However, I'd suggest waiting at least a month before judging. Then, if you still want more volume, consult a board-certified dermatologist who can gradually add more Voluma.

Answer: Cheek Augmentation Results with Fillers (Radiesse, Voluma) It takes 1-2 weeks for final results with Voluma. Most injectors will schedule a follow-up at that time to discuss final results. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have a touch-up or have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Voluma result: when can you evaluate the final result and what is the best time for touchups? Thank you for sharing your question and congratulations on your Voluma placement. Though the answer to your question will depend on the amount of initial Voluma placed into your cheeks most touch-ups can be performed 2-3 weeks after treatment. This allows the swelling in your tissues to resolve and the filler to soften and mature, leading to more predictable results. Hope this helps.

Answer: Voluma You should see your final results in about 1 week, although you will notice the difference immediately. If you think you might need more, wait about 1 to 2 weeks.
