I love my doctor but it was $1000/syringe (per cheek essentially) and I've read so many other reviews of people complaining their Voluma was $350-$400 in other parts of the country. Is $1000 the best I can hope for in Northern California (San Francisco Bay Area) - is there any doctor who offers this for a slightly more affordable price who has a good reputation? I was also told since I exercise that I should expect to have it touched up within the 1st year despite the claim of lasting 2 yrs.

Voluma is a fabulous product but really meant for the mid-face. I have seen too many side effects from Voluma injected under the eyes. I would definitely return to your treating physician. It sounds as if you may need more Vitrase injected in this area. Best, Dr. Green
