Had Restylane Injected into Nasolabial Folds and Now the Sides are Uneven, How Can I Fix this? (photo)

Now it is 45 days after the Restylane injection on nasolabial folds. As you notice the left down side of my nose is became bigger and a little bit lower.do you think it is temporary? How can i fix it? also would you pls tell me if the VITAL is the best choise for filling my skinny face.

A: Uneven melolabial folds after Restylane

After45 days, I thimk it is reasonable to be concerbed about the uneven appearance.

You may not need a full syringe of Restylane to correct this problem and hopefully you will only be charged the cost of the syringe.

Restylane Vital is a form of Restylane not yet approved in the United States.

Always make sure yo are being treated by an experienced, Board Certified Dermatologist.

What is Wrong if I See No Result 4 Days After Restylane ?

I had two syringes of Restylane four days ago, why do I see no results? The injecter suggested that I have one syringe in the upper check area on both sides hoping to lift up and out because I have lost weight in my face. I shared that I wanted my checks to look fuller and I was concerned about the lines on both side of my mouth. I could hear and feel the injection into my upper check bone. I was bruised from the inside but with ice no sign of any bruising on the outside. What do I do?

A: No results 4 days after Restylane

I agree with the advice of the above experts.

To summarize:

1.-Before and after photos are essential.

2.-The quantity of the filler should be adequate to make a noticeable, but subtle difference. (You may need more than 2 syringes)

3.-The quality of the filler should address the problem at hand:  Radiesse  and/or Sculptra (or maybe   Perlane) for deep wrinkles, Restylane or Juvederm (or maybe Prevelle) for  shallow wrinkles.

4.-The quality of the operator. Always  make sure that you are being treated by an experienced, Board Certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon.

Gortex in my Upper Lip, Can I Have Restylene Injected?

Years ago, I had gortex put into my upper lip. Aging has caused my lips to thin. I'd like to have Restylene injected. Can this be done with the existing gortex in my upper lip? I'd rather not remove the gortex, just add the filler if possible. Thanks for your answer!

A: Restylane after Gortex

Restylane is compatible with Goretex (polytetrafluoroethylene), but it requires a great deal of expertise.

It needs to be injected carefully and slowly by an experienced operator . The good thing is that if too much ends up being injected in an area, it can at least partially be  removed by injecting Hyaluronidase.

Make sure that you are being treated by an experienced, Boars Certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon
