What is Voluma, and how does it work to enhance facial appearance?
Voluma is a dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin. It’s specifically designed to add volume to cheeks, giving them a youthful, lifted look. It is clinically proven to work while remaining safe and cleared by the FDA.
How long does Voluma last?
Get ready for the long haul because Voluma can last up to 18 months! This means two years of plump, happy cheeks. Of course, individual results may vary, but this particular filler is known for its staying power.
Actual Patient Results
Does getting Voluma injections hurt?
Not usually. Most of the fillers at image Dermatology® P.C. contain a bit of lidocaine to minimize discomfort. You might feel a tiny pinch, but it’s generally quick and tolerable. If you’re worried, Dr. Downie can further numb the area with anesthetics to ensure you are comfortable from start to finish!
How soon will I see results?
The magic happens almost instantly! You can see the results right after the treatment, although there may be some mild swelling that settles over the next couple of days. After that, you will be showing off gorgeous, contoured cheeks.

Are there any side effects I should know about?
Side effects are typically mild and might include redness, bruising, or swelling at the injection site. These usually go away within a few days. As with any cosmetic treatment, it is always a good idea to consult a qualified practitioner to minimize risks.
Am I a good candidate for Voluma filler for the cheeks?
If you are looking to restore lost volume in your cheeks or want more definition in the face, Voluma may be perfect for you! However, we recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr. Downie to discuss your goals and make sure it is the right option for your unique needs.
Can I go back to my normal activities after getting Voluma?
Absolutely! There’s little to no downtime following your appointment. Dr. Downie recommends skipping intense workouts for the first 24 hours, though you can return to most of your regular activities immediately. Just avoid rubbing or pressing on your cheeks for the first day or so. We also recommend that patients sleep on their back for three days after treatment and do not participate in heavy or strenuous exercise for two days after treatment.
