I had 1 cc of voluma injected (split) between both cheeks. I was somewhat satisfied initially but two weeks later I feel like I look exactly the same. It was very expensive and I'm thinking maybe If I get one more cc of juvederm (not voluma) split between both cheeks I would actually see some results?

Answer: Juvederm in cheeks It looks like you have a fair amount of volume loss. Typically 1cc per cheek is required to restore the lost volume and even more depending on the amount of volume loss. You would need to be reassessed and see what your practitioner recommends. I doubt another 0.5cc in each side will make much of a difference.

Answer: Facial Sculpting/ Cheek Augmentation - Using Fillers Like Voluma, Radiesse, Lyft, Juvederm and Sculptra and Fat It is likely that you were pleased with the results from the initial swelling, and once that subsided your face did not present with as much volume. I suggest returning to your injector for additional treatment, one more cc will not produce optimal results. Fillers such as Radiesse, Voluma, and Perlane are my favorite for cheek volumization.

Answer: Volume of filler in cheeks Thanks for your question. Every patient is different in their expectations and experiences, so it is not really realistic to guarantee you will be happy with a specific amount of filler. Voluma is traditionally an excellent choice for cheeks, and does last about twice as long as Juvederm, so that would be something to consider. Another option is to have Voluma injected by your dermatologist, then return to them a few weeks later to see if you would like more layered with it. Best of luck!

Answer: How much filler is needed varies from person to person. There is no set standard with regard to how much filler will be necessary for the cheeks. How much filler is needed will vary greatly depending on your anatomy and the amount of improvement you want to achieve. With that said, it does appear, based on your photos, that 1 cc split between the two cheeks was not enough to provide a satisfactory increase in volume that I believe you were hoping for. The cheeks are a relatively large treatment area and therefore require much more filler than, for example, the lips or the area around the mouth. It’s not uncommon to need anywhere from 1 to 2 ccs, or even more, in each cheek to achieve a satisfactory result. Before spending any more money, consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who will be able to set realistic expectations for you and give you a fairly accurate estimate as to how much filler will be needed to get the result you want.
