If I have experienced side effects after Voluma should I avoid all types of filler?

February 26, 2016
Asked By:jostone in Calabasas, CA

I had Juvederm and Voluma in my cheeks 2 weeks ago. I have been feeling unwell since. Over the last week I have tired aching legs, a thick head. My clinician said I don't have an infection but says that if you are particularly in tune with your body you can feel unwell initially! I am meant to have more Juvederm in my nasal labial folds but I'm now thinking of not going ahead! I have had the suggestion of using Boletero instead- do all ha fillers work the same and have the same side effects?
