Does Voluma have to be injected just above the bone when getting jaw fillers?

I am soon getting jaw fillers and was wondering where the Voluma will be placed for a more masculine jawline? What if the doctor hits a jaw muscle? Are there any dangers? Does Voluma go the bone or is it more superficial? Thanks!

Thank you for your question. Voluma is hyaluronic acid and will break down over time by your body. The product is designed to last up to 2 years. Vitrase and Hylenex will break the product down quicker if desired.
