Is it normal to have bruising, nausea and a headache after Voluma injections to both upper cheeks?

retiredthisyear
Had less than one vial injected 5 days ago to both cheeks to enhance volume. Had bruising on left side. Have had headache and nausea since then. Bruising is getting better but left side has pulling and feels badly bruised. Have had juviderm in mouth area before with bruising but no other symptoms. Pain now seems to be in cheek and sinus area. Very uncomfortable and nausea is really bad.
