I got 1 syringe of Voluma injected to my chin, will I need more? (Photo)

Question

These are my before and after pictures, my doctor injected 1 syringe of voluma to my chin and I'm pretty impressed with the result, should I add another syringe for added volume? Or will it be too much?

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and it looks as if you had a nice response to the first syringe of filler.  I would advocate for additional placement to provide further anterior projection of your chin to better balance your jawline.  Hope this helps.

Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question. The injectable amount depends on your face, health and desires. Voluma lasts around 24 months and injections can be repeated to meet the volume and gentle lifting that you desire. Please discuss with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

I'm glad you're happy with the results of chin augmentation using Voluma.
Be sure to follow up in two weeks with your injector.
P.S. I cannot see your photos - they may not have loaded up.

Gregory A. Buford, MD, FACS · Answer

I would agree with Dr. Weiner that you could benefit from a little more anterior projection.  Best to discuss this with your physician and see what he/she says.  I hope that helps!

Thank you for
your question someone1212. Voluma is a
filler used to enhance the appearance of the face. It is difficult to see these photographs for some reason. The answer to your question depends on your personal preferences. The great thing about fillers is that more can be added if further enhancement is desired. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations.  Good luck!

Kouros Azar, MD · Answer

Your results look good and if you are happy then let things be. They should last anywhere from 18 months to a year.

Reza Nassab, FRCS (Plast) · Answer

This would be a personal choice.  If you feel you would like more filler then plese proceed to see your surgeon again to discuss.

Michele S. Green, MD · Answer

Voluma is a great injection for the chin and it appears that you had a nice result.  It is a matter of preference but I think it would be good to have a little more anterior projection.  If you look at a side view you can best gauge whether or not you would benefit from more Voluma. Please consult an expert in Voluma.  Best, Dr. Green

Dennis Gross, MD · Answer

Whether or not you need more is a matter of personal preference. Your doctor did a very good job projecting your chin forward to give your profile more balance. In terms of ideal proportions, it could be slightly more projected, however it looks great now and in my opinion, would not be necessary. I think if you are happy with the improvements that were made, you should stick with the single syringe. If it still bothers you slightly, a little more could be injected and still look good, proportionally speaking.

Victoria Karlinsky-Bellini, MD · Answer

I think your doctor did a wonderful job improving the projection of your chin.  It looks much more balanced and my advice is not to add any more Voluma at this time.  Get used to your self with a stronger chin and then perhaps 6-8 months down the lines add some more for even more aggressive correction if at that point you still feel like you want it.  Remember that the greatest enemy of good is BETTER!
