The lumps/bumps aren't visible to the eye but I can feel them with my fingers when applying makeup. They feel almost like hard crystals or gristle. I imagine this must the product breaking down- but I'm concerned when they will go.
Answer: Lumps after dermal fillers Hi @eddie10! If the product is not settled in within two weeks and you continue to feel irregularities, I recommend dissolving the lumps with Hylenex. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Voluma Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. It is good news that the lumps aren't perceptible. Your surgeon will provide you with their preferred solution to feeling those lumps.

Answer: Hard lumps after Volume placed under the eyes Thanks for your question. As others have mentioned, for a patient in my practice (although I don't put Voluma under the eyes), if you can't see the lumps but can only feel them then you can decide to leave it if you are happy with the result. If the lumps bother you then you can have them inject hyaluronidase (which may be an added cost to you) to dissolve it. Best of luck to you.

Answer: I had Voluma in May. I have small hard lumps under my eyes near the top of the mid cheek. When will they dissolve/disappear? Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your undereye/cheek lumps. If the bumps do not affect your appearance and you are able to overlook the firmness of the product there is nothing that you would need to do acutely. If however the lumps are concerning your injector can dissolve the material with injection of a different medication called hyaluronidase. Hope that this helps.

Answer: Voluma Lumps What you describe is almost certainly lumps from the Voluma product. The skin under the eye is very thin and a small amount of unevenness can result in palpable lumps. You have two choices. 1. Do nothing...the Voluma will resorb and go away. It may take a few years. 2. Wydase injection...this will dissolve the Voluma. You can have your doctor try a small amount, but it is possible that all of the Voluma will go away after the injection.
