I received one syringe of Voluma in my cheekbones and a small amount in the lat tear trough. Now my left cheekbone is a lot larger, protrudes a lot more than my right cheekbone. it feels like there is more filler on the left. after the Voluma injections, the doctor took a small amount of Juvaderm XC Ultra for my lips and put some in my right cheekbone? he said the right side still needed more. he said my left cheek now looks bigger because my face is asymmetrical,it's higher than the right side.

Answer: My left cheekbone looks bigger than the right after voluma = very likely swelling #voluma #cheekbones #swelling
Since Voluma typically lasts way longer than 2 months, it sounds to be as if you didn't have enough injected the first time so yes, schedule an appointment with your surgeon for a touch up.Kindly,Kouros Azar
I would highly doubt that you had a hyaluronic acid filler that is lasting six years. Even Voluma doesn't last more than two years. I would try to get your medical records and ascertain what product what is injected into your cheeks. Please consult an expert. Best, Dr. Green
Yes you can dissolve Voluma in one session. Voluma is a fabulous filler but if it was injected improperly you should definitely have it dissolved. Voluma comes by the syringe (not units like Botox) and it takes more Vitrase to dissolve it then other fillers. Best, Dr. Green
