Best Treatment for Chronic Inflammatory Reaction to Restalyne?

I had restalyne injected in my tear troughs 2 1/2 months ago and I've developed chronic inflammation issues. The pain is not so bad as the neurological symptoms including depression and inability to concentrate. Prednisone has helped in the past, but is less effective at the low dose recommended by my PCP (10 mg) and I don't tolerate high dosages well. The doctor who did the restalyne is reluctant to use wydase fearing another bad reaction. What is the best treatment for this complication??

A: Restylane side effects

If you feel the Restylane is causing your problems then I suggest you dissolve it with the enzyme hyaluronidase (Wydase).  Once it is dissolved then you can be sure if your symptoms remain that there is something else also going on.  It is possible that you have 2 or 3 problems, not just the Restylane.  Hopefully it will all resolve with the Wydase.

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 eyes

Restylane works great to fill in the tear trough and hollows under the eyes.  If you feel you need more I would wait about 2 weeks.  This gives time for any swelling to settle down and any bruising to go away.  At  2 weeks you should be optimized to see if indeed you do need more filler.

Will Restylane Be Damaged by IPL or Refirme?

If I get injected with Restylane and then get an IPL/Photofacial or Refirme/Thermage treatment, is the Restylane going to be damaged or altered?

A: Restylane and IPL

Restylane and other fillers will not be affected by IPL or lasers. The lasers are attracted to certain wavelengths of color. The fillers tend to be clear and do not attract the lasers.  IPL is too superficial to be a problem.
