Asked By:Romi Green in Ventura, CA

Went to have inner under eye hollowness filled & was told it was best to put filler Voluma on the cheekbone to correct this. My cheekbones now prominent. My lower cheeks look chubby too (filler wasn't even placed there). Swelling? Undereyes appear even more hollow, due to the larger cheeks and cheekbones. Made a lumpy 3/4 view of my upper cheek. Now it is a bump below eye, indention then projects out at the midcheek. Swelling or misplaced filler? Why put filler in cb vs. in the undereye direct?
