I had volume filler injected in my cheek area. It was to help with my laugh lines and overall apperance. Felt like I was looking worn out and too old for my age. Loved the results. Immediately felt 10 years younger! It was not painful and the results were immediate. Minimal to no bruising. Loved entire experience.

I just had the same procedure (Voluma in the cheeks) yesterday (in addition to IPL for sun spots). I'm 33 with one child and felt like I just looked worn out...which I probably was- lol! I have had a great experience as well- minimal bruising and swelling. I've been on arnica tablets to prepare my body for bruising for a week, then using arnica cream post-op, and eating my weight in pineapple as a third layer of protection. In your after photo, how many days after were you when you took the photo? I agree with you 100% - so far it has been a pretty great experience in the way of healing and pain management (which I really hasn't been too much pain) and if it weren't for the laser treatments (having dark spots all over my face), i would be out in public today!
That was taken the same day! Only one small bruise!
Wow! You look great! I had some minor bruising (very minor) and still have some swelling at the injection sites that I'm sure will subside by Friday (which would be the three day mark). Thanks for sharing!
How many syringes did you do?
I think two...
Did they inject lidocaine before?
No...they put a numbing cream on my cheeks.
Ok, thanks. Yikes, worried about the pain level.
I didn't have any pain killer (only ice previous to the injections) and it wasn't that bad.
It worked perfectly for you!! You look a lot younger (not that 35 is even old!) Beautiful results!
Do you still have filler or has it all dissolved?
