I was starting to feel that I looked tired all the time due to the under eye bags. I made an appointment with the private doctor and she advised me to get some Juvederm Voluma in my cheeks and also some Juvederm Volbella for the eye trough area. I have been for the 1st appointment where I got 2 ml of Juvederm Voluma and 1 ml of Volbella. The doctor advised that I may need a follow up but she did not wish to overfill as there would be some swelling after the treatment and there was for several days. I will return in a few weeks for the follow up appointment and I imagine a little more filler in the tear trough area.

Round 2
Just had my review today, one month on, plus some more filler under the eye area. The doctor wisely decided to wait until the first lot settled before deciding today how much to top up with. It is better to fill in stages rather than ending up with an overfilled area which needs to be treated and some of the HA dissolved.
I am happy with the results so far. There will be a little swelling at present, so perhaps I will post a few photos after another while, once the area has settled.

Hi there Park Ridge, sorry to take so long to respond. I have posted a 3rd photo taken after 4 months. The blue tinge has all but gone, although the lighting in the first few photos may not have helped! On tired days, I do get a slight blue tinge but nothing that bothers me! I am so happy with the results.

No one is suppose to use Voluma under the eyes. Any good injector should know this. It's too thick, and can cause bumps. The regular Juvederm should of been used instead.

I stated that the voluma was in the cheeks not under the eyes. Volbella was used for under the eyes, in the troughs. This doctor is trustworthy and I love my results. No lumps, no bumps, just a really good outcome which I am very pleased with.

No problem at all Lisa! It is easily done. And my description may not have been as clear as it could have been :)
