Voluma and puffy face. Is this just swelling and will it go down? How long will this take to resolve?

March 3, 2016
Asked By:Pinkwillow in Ontario, CA

I had 1 cc of voluma injected into my cheeks in a 3-point manner on Friday. I find that even though its 6 days later, my face looks very puffy and fat! This was not my pre state.  It is not tender nor do I have any bruising, it just looks very puffy and swollen. I also had some injected into my jawline which is now a different "puffy" shape.
