Can I have more Voluma added to the cheeks 2 weeks after first round of injections?

Thank you for your question!
It is very frequent that we perform injections in "sessions"  a few week apart, exactly as you described. The right amount of fillers or the number of sessions that takes for the patient to get the best result are variable and that does not add extra side effects or potential extra complications. However, every injection session will have its own swelling and potential bruising, so it depends how much down time you can have. The most important thing in my is that the patient's goals are met and you have the best results possible, even if you need more that one session.
Hope this helps! Best, Dr Miotto

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can add volume to your cheeks after the injection. Your healing process and the recommendation of your board certified facial plastic surgeon will prove the best time to have the procedure a second time.

Ideally, you shouldn’t add more Voluma less than two weeks after your first session. There is swelling that needs to dissipate so that you and your dermatologist can have an accurate idea of what the initial results are. Also, your skin needs to heal before being injected again. However, if you are no longer swollen or bruised and your dermatologist feels that it’s OK, having more Voluma added at 11 days should be fine. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who is experienced with sculpting the face using Voluma.

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  The reason that most injectors ask for two weeks is to allow your tissues time to heal and for any swelling to resolve.  This allows for a more accurate treatment as your results will not be impacted or masked but the swelling.  As you had very little Voluma placed into your cheeks you should be at your long-term appearance change after 11 days and can receive additional filler if you desire it.  Hope this helps.

Two weeks is a reasonable time to wait to have more Voluma placed if you have no visible signs of bruising or swelling. If you have residual bruising or swelling, it could be hard for your doctor to tell if you might naturally need more on one side vs. the other (most everyone has one side that is a little asymmetric compared to the other side). You had a conservative l amount placed in your cheeks the first round. Now that you know you like the way it looks, it is reasonable to have more added. Good luck!

2 weeks is perfectly fine to get another round of voluma for the cheeks. The first round of injections should have settled by then. In my practice we usually wait for 2 weeks before injection in the same area. 

You can have injections again with the same product in the same areas as long as any bruising and/or swelling has subsided. 

I see no trouble having a second injection if....there was no sign of infection or issues from your original treatment. I really like Voluma as a product...good choice. Good luck.

Yes. You can definitely add more voluma following a prior injection. This is done quite frequently. In our practice we ask that patients wait two weeks prior to injection; however, if there is no evidence of bruising or excess swelling the injections can be done sooner.

It may take up to 2 weeks for the swelling to resolve after Voluma injections, so I usually advise my patients to wait at least 2 weeks before injecting more. This way we can be sure that we know exactly where to add additional filler. If your swelling has resolved, there is no harm in treating a few days earlier. Good luck!
