I currently have Restylane injected in my tear troughs. I have had it injected twice. The first time I had one syringe injected, and I needed more after 6 months. My last injection of another syringe was 4 months ago. The Restylane injections have been an improvement, but have not given me the results that I want. I am considering injecting Voluma into my cheeks. I think I need it regardless, but will this improve my under eye hollows? If not, what are other alternatives.

Answer: Voluma Restylane usually provides patients with the best non-surgical results for hollow under eyes. Voluma should not be injected under the eyes. However, like you said, Voluma is a great treatment to enhance the cheeks and in some cases as a result improve the appearance of under eye hollows. You should find an expert injector who has a lot of experience with Voluma injections to make sure you get the best results possible. Good luck!

Answer: Lifting Cheeks With Voluma May Minimize Undereye Troughs Voluma is contraindicated for use under the eyes, as it is too thick and may cause lumps. However, your instinct to use Voluma to enhance your cheeks and thereby indirectly and very subtly lift the under-eye skin is a possible solution. The skin under the eyes often becomes tighter owing to the increased volume in your cheeks. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist to see what options are best for resolving this problem.
