Dr. did Voluma in June and urged me to get ultherapy in Oct. right before treatment, she said it would melt filler. melted most of it, but not all and then there were weird bumps and planes under eyes. bought more filler to compensate. didn't work. 3 sessions of trying to remove all filler. almost gone except 3 hard nodules of filler in both eyes that is visible, extra lines under eyes and bags that weren't there. Spent 8K and still need to fix it.
