If you are truly suspicious about the type of product your doctor used, you could attempt to dissolve the filler with Hyaluronidase. Voluma as a Hyluronic Acid based filler would react to the dissolvent, where silicon would not.

Thank you for sharing your question.  Based on the contouring and lifting goals you are hoping to achieve, one syringe per cheek is a good starting point.  Hope this helps.
