Having had Juvederm injections several times for smile lines before, one doctor said that she could inject it in my cheeks and under my eyes if I want to try to restore some volume. I am hesitant because my experience is that the product stays where it's injected, what would be my options? What is the best and most natural non-surgical way to restore volume in the cheeks and under eyes that won't give me a lumpy result?

Answer: Stick with what works for augmentation of cheek or face
You seem to have been happy with Juvederm, so I would recommend that you stick with it for augmentation of the cheek/face area.
There are a variety of off the shelf products but the beauty of these is that it avoids the downtime of a surgical procedure, such as cheek implants for example. The limiting factor is that they are not permanent.

Answer: Mid-face Non-surgical Rejuvenation Hi Newmie, Juvederm is excellent for restoring volume in the midface. I would use Restylane close to the eyes as sometimes Juvederm swells a little too much in this area leading to unsatisfactory results. Another non-surgical method of restoring midface volume and lifting the slight laxity of the area is treatment with fractionated carbon dioxide laser. I have been using Fraxel re:pair for the past year. One of the most consistent effects is a slight lift of the mid-face, and smoothing of the lower eye lids. Choose your injecting physician carefully. Dr. P
