48hours later im starting to freak out ..im still swollen in my left side but i can still easily see she misplaced the product plus giving my left side much more volume..it looks deformed as it is placed over my cheekbone leaving an unatural gap to the temples ..i will wait another 24hours but then should i correct the right with more product? or dissolve only my left side and do it again? My doctor said it was because i had damaged tissue ..but i think it was her first time with voluma.
Answer: Voluma injections require an artistic eye. Placing Voluma under the skin is like sculpting, you need a good eye for symmetry and balance. One of the best things about Voluma is that the correction is immediately visible and very true to the final result. Small amounts should be injected slowly with molding to give a natural result. Depending on the end result desired you may need more in some spots and less in others for an aesthetically pleasing result. If your injector is new to the product you might want a more experienced second opinion. Keep in mind you may be one of the few who gets swelling for the first few weeks, you may want to wait as long as 4 weeks to be sure that temporary swelling is not the real problem. Good news: it is all fixable!

CONTACT NOW Answer: Juvederm Voluma Hi there! Thank you for your question.I would always recommend a 2 week settle in period as some of the asymmetry may be due to mild swelling / bruising after injections. At this point ensure you have follow up with the injector to review results and decide on your plan moving forward. Hope this helps!Best wishes, Dr Rupert

Answer: Swollen and uneven after Voluma Swelling can persist for several days after injection of any filler product. If there is significant asymmetry, it is best to talk with your injector. This could be due to technique, or simply due to bleeding, bruising, or swelling under the skin. In most cases, mild asymmetries will even out with time, but every patient is different. Always see an expert physician injector. All the best,

Answer: Swelling After Voluma Swelling after Voluma can be a result of the following factors -Deep bruise- Not all bruises are at the surface and this localized swelling can take weeks to dissipate -Injection technique- Injections of the product can create depositions which can create lumps if not properly transitioned. Since Voluma is not hydrophilic (does not tend to absorb water), Voluma tends to be a what you see is what you get type of filler. Consult your treating physician for the best course of action.

Answer: Swollen and Uneven After Voluma With the initial swelling post Voluma treatments, there can be lumps, bumps and asymmetry. Contact your injector to let them know what you are experiencing. Give it at least 2 weeks for things to settle down and even out. If at that time you are still unhappy with your results, let your injector know and they can determine if more product would be beneficial or if dissolving the product would be an option for you.

Answer: Swollen and uneven face after Voluma Usually the next day after injecting Voluma you can get an initial phase of swelling then it dissipates after couple days. Swelling can last longer especially if you have some blood underneath which will be absorbed. I massage my patients on the day of injection to smooth out any uneven areas only if I have to. I think it's just too early for you to evaluate whether the swelling is due to tissue trauma or the product itself. Your doctor will be the best person to judge. I think it's reasonable to wait another day or two, however, the swelling should not get worse.
