Could a bump and indentation after Botox be leftover Voluma? Looking for second opinions. (photos)

Asked By:VirginiaO in Omaha, NE

One year ago, I had Botox injected into my forehead (upper + lower), plus a small injection of Voluma into a scar. A year later, I had Botox injected again—just in the upper forehead. A week later (3 weeks ago), I developed strange indentations. I went back to the doctor who treated me; she said it was most likely muscular, but I’m wondering if the residual Voluma from a year ago got pushed up from the Botox since the protrusion is in the same location. What can I do now? My forehead looks crazy
