I had Juvederm voluma in my cheeks before the results were phenomenal costing $700 a syringe. Now I see many injectors refusing to use it. They use teosyal, radiesse and restylyane and refuse to use Juvedem. I have used all these products and was underwhelmed with the results. I needed to repeat the treatments in all cases bc they didn't last or didn't volumize like voluma, it ends up costing me more to use these alternatives. Why aren't injectors using products that last?

Hello
I am sorry to hear that you haven’t achieved your desired results. I would advise you to wait a while before you rush in and get more filler.

Good luck
