Four days ago, I had Juvederm Voluma injected into the upper cheek area and also along the jawline. I also had regular Juvederm placed in the tear troughs and in the nasolabial folds. I am still noticing some swelling and a lump between the under eye and cheek, and my cheeks feel very firm and hard. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to speed up the healing process, like taking supplements? I feel really self-conscious and want to take care of this right away. Thanks for your help!
