I got fillers back in February. I got Voluma injected into my cheek bones, the swelling was really bad for weeks, and extremely painful, not to mention it was injected way too high on my face and near the corners of my eyes. I've been getting really bad headaches recently and the tops of my cheekbones hurt whenever I get these head aches. I'm not sure if its my wisdom teeth or these fillers, but I'd like to get checked out because skeptical as to what this Dr. actually put in my cheeks.
