South Miami Restylane doctors

It is unfortunate that you had a side effect with Restylane. This is a a popular filler used around the lips intra--dermally. So it is injected into the middle layer of the skin called dermis. If the appropriate amount of the filler is used and injected into a correct  skin layer, then resulting complications such as lumps and bumps are very rare. Therefore, if you are seeing these problems, please see your practitioner. There are ways to reverse some of these issues with hyaluronidase injections. Take care and good luck.

Dark circles under the eyes can be the result of several causes.  Truly, only one of the causes is treated satisfactorily with fillers.  Dark circles are generally the result of 1) Deep set eyes or a sunkeness of the lower eyelids that result in a shadowing effect, 2) darkening or hyperpigmentation of the skin (either hereditary, post inflammatory, or chronic inflammation), and/or 3) discoloration secondary to the vasculature underlying the thin eyelid skin.  If your dark circles are the result of deep set eyes or a sunkeness of the lower lids, then Restylane is an excellent choice to fill this area (a concave surface).  Furthermore, if this is indeed your case, 1 syringe per lower lid is completely reasonable.  

According to medical literature, we currently do not know if it is safe to use fillers such as Restylane or Radiesse   in patients with chronic inflammatory disorders, such as ankylosing spondylitis. For now, there is no contraindication to use these products in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Since your health is a priority, I would discuss this first with your physician who treats your ankylosing spondylitis. If you get a green light from your  physician, you will feel more confident to undergo the procedure. Good luck.
