Can voluma cause a rash?

Thank you for your question. Tenderness, lumps, discoloration, and itching are less common side effects of Voluma. All side effects for Voluma tend to subside within 2 to 4 weeks. Please consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,

Rashes aren't a side effect associated with Voluma. I recommend following up with your Dr. for an evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question.  Voluma should not cause a rash. Treatment may result in some skin irritation, redness, or swelling, but a rash should be seen by your surgeon for a diagnosis and treatment recommendation.

There is always a bit of post injection redness and swelling which may or may not itch. You might be mistaking this for a "rash". It should subside on it's own in the next few weeks. If it does not or the symptoms get worse then you will need to be examined in person by your injector. 

Are you sure that what you have is a rash and not just the typical post injection redness and swelling? You will be able to see and feel little raised "bumps" where the filler was injected. These will resolve in time. If your "rash" doesn't improve within two weeks, see your surgeon. Best of luck.

Thank you for
your question sctiahazel. Voluma is a
filler used to enhance the appearance of the face. Redness and swelling can be seen after any injection. Sometimes this is mistaken for a rash. Please consult
with a doctor for specific recommendations.  Good luck!

This is not a side effect of Voluma. If there is a rash in the area of Voluma, it could be an allergy to the soap or disinfectant used during the placement of the product. This should occur soon after treatment, not days or weeks later.
