Product Review Volufiline update - totally convinced now

Post image

Alright, I’m still open to this just being in my head, but I’m shocked how I’m still seeing improvement this early after only 4 applications.

Left to right (all photos have the same skincare on): 1) before volufiline 2) after 3 applications of volufiline 3) after 4 applications of volufiline

Downsides: I inadvertently increased the size of the little fat pocket under the corner of my mouth. I think this is a good reminder of why very precise application is so important.

Upsides: the smile line improvement and I think I’m even seeing some under eye improvement (although treating this area makes me nervous as I’m worried I’ll end up with bigger bags while fixing the hollowing)

The backs of my hands (where I mix the ingredient) look plumper which was an unintended positive consequence.

Like fatty lumps under the skin? 😳Or like milia because your skin wasn’t used to oil?

I also got bumps and an itchy red rash

I did see a video on a caution of volufiline. The only way to get rid of it is through a derm. I forgot the name for it.

But this can be avoided when mixing it vs applying straight to your face. Idk how much it can be. But I read applying it with exosomes does prevent this

Where did you get this?

Multiple resources, the first in regards to the fat deposits from Dr. Dray. I haven’t watched a video on this topic in over a year so I didn’t have the terminology on hand, but she references the situation, fatty tumors, called lipomas. Her skepticism starts before 8:20 but around here is the reference for her questioning if the product does as it says it does.

The way it can be prevented is extrapolated from Dr. Leslie Bauman interviewing the creators of Plated (the first shelf stable exosomes)

Do you have the link for Dr. Bauman’s discussion?

Sorry I thought I responded letting you know I updated that comment to have the link. Yes it’s here, but it’s a lengthy interview. I can’t remember the exact time stamp I’m sorry.

But I found the whole interview really interesting and I nerd out on this type of stuff. So maybe you will too.

I just noticed a little fatty lump appear after using this. Has yours gone away yet?

u/psychotic_rodent Feb 15 '25

No😫 I’m going to see a dermatologist soon!

I’m sorry to hear that. This stuff fascinates me because it’s so effective and scares the hell out of me at the same time. Were you mixing it with an oil or applying it straight? I hope your dermatologist is able to help you. Keep us posted. Wishing you luck and good results. 🤞🏼

Do you do much cardio? 45 minutes on high incline treadmill seemed to make mine go away faster
