Yesterday had 1 injection of voluma (1/2 syringe on each cheek) to fix volume loss and improve hollowing under the eyes. Today it looks good (noticeably smaller circles). But the filler looks a bit raised directly below the dark circle where it meets the cheek, and a bit deflated towards the outer side of the dark circles (as if it needs more filler? or less in the middle? or is this just swollen from the procedure? Will it settle itself? I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow.
