I Got Restylane Under my Eyes but Want More, How Long Should I Wait Before I Get More?

I Got Restylane Under my Eyes but Want More, How Long Should I Wait Before I Get More?

A: Restylane under the eyes.

This is truly one of the most powerful non surgical enhancements I do.  I would tell you to wait 2 weeks, then visit your physician for more if need be.  Enjoy your new eyes!

Is It Ok to Use Restylane 18 Months After Using Juvederm Under the Eyes

I had juvederm injected under my eyes 18 months ago, about 3 weeks ago I had the dissolving agent injected to remove small bumps, it seems to have removed the remaining juvederm leaving me with dark circles and bags under my eyes again. I am considering using restylane instead. Is this recommended ? Are there any side effects that can happen my mixing the two fillers?

A: Juvederm vs Restylane For Tear Troughs

Juvederm and Restylane are two different fillers made of the same basic compound, hyaluronic acid.  When used to correct the "tear troughs" under the eyes, the material must be injected very deeply .  Bumps can occur if too much material is injected or the material is injected too superficially.  The likelihood of developing these bumps can also be minimized by having the injector massage the area immediately after injection. 

Fortunately when bumps do occur, they can be dissolved away with hyaluronic acid and additional filler can be injected. There is no problem changing from Juvederm to Restylane or mixing the 2 fillers, however the risk of developing bumps is the same.  Hope you have better luck this time.

Can I Get Restylane if I Already Have Juvederm?

Can I combine fillers in the same area?

A: Restylane and Juvederm

It is safe to combine wrinkle fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm. I routinely combine fillers such as Radiesse and Juvederm depending on the goal. Combining is safe as long as the person injecting your face is a board certified physician such a Plastic surgeon or a Dermatologist.
