I'm 2 days post procedure. Is Vobella in the tear trough area supposed to feel almost like an "implant" that you can always feel for a year (until it's gone), or does it absorb soon after injection and become like your very own skin?
Answer: How is tear trough filler supposed to feel? Thank you for sharing your question. If done in a conservative manner with serial, incremental additions, Vobella will feel a little firm for the first days after injection but then should become like your own skin. The greater amount of product placed the firmer the feeling, the greater the swelling, and the longer that softening of the filler will take. Hope this helps.

Answer: Volbella in tear trough should feel like... At first, Volbella under the eyes may feel a bit like an implant or something hard. This is due to the swelling. It can take at least 2 weeks for the swelling to fully subside. At that point, however, you shouldn't be able to feel the filler at all.

Answer: Volbella in the tear trough Thank you for your question amonavis. Congratulations on your Volbella treatment. Volbella is a hyaluronic acid filler designed to enhance the lips. It can also be used to restore lost volume in the tear trough under the eyes. I recommend that my patients apply a gentle massage 5 minutes at a time, 5 times per day, for the first 5 days. This will smooth out the product, reducing lumps and bumps, and provide a natural appearance. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Answer: How is tear trough filler supposed to feel? Thanks for your question and in an ideal world, one should hopefully feel nothing extraordinary in the tear troughs following injections if they were injected slowly and deeply in the area being treated. We do see swelling for up to two weeks in some but the area should not feel hard – so I would recommend that you contact your provider, tell them what is going on, and perhaps see them. In any event, if at two weeks you are not happy, the filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase and the area will return to what it was before you had the injections. Good luck.

Answer: Firmness after Volbella Injections Thank you for your question. All hyaluronic acid fillers, including Volbella, can feel slightly firm after injection. Typically, over the course of a few weeks, the filler should soften and blend into your skin. Volbella is a particularly nice product for sensitive areas like the undereyes and tear troughs because its a very thin and soft filler, and it typically blends into the skin rather quickly. That said, if your injector injected larger boluses of Volbella at each injection point, it may take a little longer for it to fully blend in. If you still notice the firmness under your skin in a few weeks, please follow-up with your injector to discuss your concerns. He/she may be able to gently massage the filler to blend it out. Best of luck!
