If I don't like the results of my Voluma treatment, do I have to wait for it to dissolve, or is there a way to extract it?

There is an enzyme called hyaluronidase that can dissolve the product. You may want to wait a bit to be sure the swelling that normally occurs after a filler is used to get the product removed. I like to wait at least 10 days, but If you are sure you want it dissolved, you can ask the doctor who injected it to dissolve the product. In some states where nurses inject, they may not have access to enzyme, so you may have to visit a cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist to have the product removed.
