FDA's MAUDE database holds 458 reports that name the brand "VOLIFT with LIDOCAINE" (implant dermal for aesthetic use), received between April 2017 and July 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Allergan Pringy. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

10 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, close to the 10 of the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are injury (90.2%) and malfunction (9.8%); across all implant, dermal, for aesthetic use reports (product code LMH) death is recorded in 0.1% and malfunction in 7.2%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are improper or incorrect procedure or method (9%), detachment of device component (3.7%) and expulsion (3.5%). The patient problems coded most often are skin irritation, inflammation and edema. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."
