I have a long, thin, face. I would like to achieve a more heart shaped face. I recently had 2 syringes of Voluma injected in my upper cheeks. My question is whether or not Voluma (or other cheek fillers) can be used lower in the face to fill it out and help achieve a fuller shape. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Answer: Voluma and Facial Volume When you have a long thin face, HA fillers rarely give the lift that you need, even voluma. It may be better for you to see someone who is a facial contouring expert and can use the right combination of fillers and laser to help lift and contour your face with maintaining your beauty and natural look. I like sculptra with radiesse as the base and then voluma could be used for small areas of lift, but is very costly to do very large areas and I find it doesn't last as long as people think. Do your homework and go to the best trained physician. Find someone how uses cannulas like I do, as they can be used to limit swelling and bruising and re shape the whole face with only a few pokes. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Voluma is a great option for lifting the midface and contouring the lower face Congrats, it looks like you had a great result from your Voluma treatment. Voluma can certainly be used to round out the hollows in the mid/lower face and also to contour the jawline. I like to use micro-cannulas in these areas in order to minimize the risk of bruising.Good luck!
