I had voluma injected under my eyes 3 months ago. About a month after the initial injection, I woke up with my left under eye very swollen and tender. It took about 24-48 hours to go away then about a week later the same thing happened to my right eye. Then 2 weeks later, I woke up to it happening again to left eye which lasted about a day or 2. This morning, I woke up with both under eyes extremely puffy and really tender. It was way worse this morning than it has been. Please help!

Juvederm can often cause swelling especially in the lips, since it is hydrophilic. It can take up to two weeks for the bruising to resolve and to see the full effects. Best, Dr. Green
I always recommend that you go slowly with your injections, especially with the lips. You have so much swelling with the lips and bruising that it is not possible to see your full results until at least 10 days from now. You can then assess the full results. Best, Dr. Green
