What layer of the skin/tissue is best to place restylane/juvederm to avoid the filler from moving around?

One of the nice attributes of Voluma is how soft a result it achieves.  This requires that the filler have a degree of horizontal diffusion to blend its effect.  It might not, however, be the best filler for you to achieve your desired results.  In my hands I have that Restylane Lyft tends to produce a more focused result with less lateral spread, and also can have excellent longevity. 

This is difficult to answer without pictures and will be based on your anatomy and desired results. Well-placed filler shouldn't migrate. I'm not sure when you had your injections. It can take 1-2 weeks for final results. If you're unhappy, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry that your results have not been what you anticipated.  Because of its thick gel nature I place Voluma just above the jaw bone for chin augmentation.  This limits the risk of bruising but also decreases the possibility of filler migration.  If you did not obtain the look you were after I would discuss this with your injector so that it can be revised.  Hope this helps.

Filler should not move or migrate assuming that it has been placed properly. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist to be examined in person.  

When placed properly, filler shouldn't move or migrate. I would suggest that you schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist with lots of filler experience to be assessed in person. Best of luck.

Thank you for
your question kamilla. Voluma is a
filler used to enhance the appearance of the face. On the chin the product is usually placed directly on the bone. In other areas it can be placed closer to the surface depending on the specific concern. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations.  Good luck!

Thanks for your question and it is important to note that these kinds of injections need to be given in the offices of board certified dermatologists or plastic surgeons as we are the true experts in the fillers and also in the anatomy of the areas being injected.  When you inject fillers we are injecting pretty deep – no matter what the filler is.  Some get injected just above the bone to give some very nice and long-term results when it comes to volumizing.  You would not want to place the filler too superficial – more problems arise when this is done and these products are best injected by experts who know how to use them the best.

Thank you for your question.  Filler if place properly should not migrate.  Voluma is an excellent product for the chin and should be placed deep and then typically is massaged to smooth the appearance of the chin, however in your case if i understand correctly you want to create 45 degree angles leading to an angular chin which may yield a different technique.  Without pictures it is difficult to advise.  Please see an expert board certified Dermatologist who can properly advise you.  Regards, Dr. Matt Elias

There are lots of filler options and techniques.  Just like choosing an artist, you need to choose your doctor injector with careful thought and research to make sure he/she communicates with you and chooses the correct filler product and technique to achieve the enhancement you are looking for. 

I really do prefer Voluma for the chin area and a deeper injection is generally preferred.  Without photos it is difficult to assess about the results and placement.  For the best cosmetic results please consult an expert in facial injections.  Best, Dr. Green
