Can the Doctor Test Us Beforehand to Make Sure We Are Not Allergic to Restylane? If I decide to get this done can they maybe inject a little spot on my hand or somewhere before just to make sure I'm not allergic or going to have a reaction. I would hate for them to inject the lines around my lips then i have an allergic reaction exspecially somewhere noticable. Thank you for your time.

A: Restylane allergy testing

It used to be customary to test patients for collagen allergies but not so with Restylane. I have never seen an allergic reaction to Restylane but have had one or two patients ask me to do a skin test on them and then save the syringe (they paid for the full syringe before the test) and proceed with treatment a week later.

Can Cheek Fillers Such As Restylane Help Diminish Appearance of Undereye Bags? I had thermage done when I was 23 and I went from being full faced to looking quite gaunt. As a result, I think it took a toll the structured support under my eyes. If I get an injectable filler, such as restylane, could this help my tired-looking under eyes? Or should I just get a really good under eye cream? I'm only 25. Thanks!

A: Non surgical eye bag treatment

Yes, hyaluronic fillers such as restylane can be used to build up the lost tissue volume of the lower lids to help hide the under eye bags you describe. The process of losing facial fat starts fairly early and can be sped up with weight loss.

The idea is to improve the soft tissue fullness which then improves the shadowing that occurs in the area.

Is It Possible to Experience Vision Loss( but Not Complete Blindness) from Restylane Injec I had some injected into radix and nose bridge area and had blurry vision after.I thought it was like botox and would go away so didn't get too concerned about it but i got worried after readingit could cause blindness if the filler gets into the arteries or veins supplying the eyes. The next day i could not read with my left eye, words were very blurry. objects were hard to to see, the right eye was ok. I went to have some of the restylane removed because i was worried about it blocking the blood vessels to the eyes but it was 72 hrs later. I can see clearer now and can read with my left eye. Could it be that it did get into my blood vessels and caused the vision loss but not complete blindness?

A: Restylane causing decreased vision

It is very rare, but there have been descriptions of skin filler injections affecting blood flow to the eye and affecting vision. This can be from filler entering a blood vessel or from pressure on a vessel and hindering blood flow. I agree with the others who recommend visiting with an ophthalmologist as soon as possible to get your eyes examined

92% of Bellevue reviewers said Restylane was worth it

	“Love It! - Bellevue, WA” I had my lips done with Restylane 2 months ago. They look the same shape, just bigger. Like they were 5 years ago. 1 cc My lips were throbbing after the numbing wore off. Used an ice pack for relief. Had bruises and tiny scabs for 2 days. They look natural and pass the "kiss test"! I will definitely do it again. more
	“Restylane in Tear Trough and Cheek...” Less is definately more with this treatment. I wish I could have done this sooner. But I really wanted to find the right Dr. and I have. Dr. ______ was amazing. She really took great care in trying not to have my face bruise and swell. Slowly and methodically she filled in my tear trough area and my cheek area that needed to be filled. Amazing results immediately. I was able to go out and... more
	“Restylane Let Me Look Rested!” I had restylane injected in to the tear troughs to help my chronic dark circles.Even through the numbing cream it did smart quite a bit, and the sounds! There were crunching sounds that weren't so pleasant, but it was all worth it to wake up in the morning and not have a half hour spackle job of applying layers of primer and concealer and setting powders. I only required 1cc, and she didn't... more
	“LOVE IT~~!!” I had a few scars from puppy bites. Two on my cheek & two on my nose. I also had an acne scar on my chin. I got 350 cc's and after filling in the scars I had enough left over to fill in the laugh lines I am sooooo happy~~!! The scars are gone, I look 8 - 10 years younger. The first t more
	“Restylane, my First Choice” I had my first Restylane injection 2 years ago, and am still a devoted follower. I get my lips and nasal labial folds done once yearly, and not because I need it, but because the product does seem to last longer when it's "topped off" vs. waiting for it to be completely resorbed. At my last appointment (Oct. 07), a full year and a half after my first injection, my doctor was... more
	“Results Far Exceeded Expectations,...” My lips had always been small for my face, and seemed lacking in volume to boot. In researching how to fix this, the reviews on Restylane were polarized about how much it actually augmented, but promising enough for the cost/downtime that I tried it anyway. Boy I am I glad I did! I was expecting subtle, ultimately not-what-I-wanted-but-let-me-try-to-see-if-I-liked-it results, and instead I got... more
	“Too Soon to Tell, but Looks Promising.” I can't give a full review right away, but I figured I would edit this one as my recovery progressed. I had 0.5-0.75 of a Restylane syringe injected into my smile lines about a half hour ago, and my face is still a bit numb. I don't mind the swollenness at all (hopefully it's not that much, because I'd like it to stay relatively close to where it is now), and the only redness I have so far... more
	“LOVE IT! I Look Like Myself from 10...” I have had Restylane done before in my smile lines last year, and the results were very good. I went back in for another treatment and Dr. {edited} introduced me to Perlane as well for putting some volume back into my cheeks. She explained that Perlane is part of the Restylane family of products but longer lasting. She was right! If you like Restylane, you will LOVE PERLANE! Editor... more
	“Love It!” I'm a 52 year old female and after loosing 10 lbs 2 years ago from cancer surgery, I have never been able to gain the weight back in my face which caused very deep labial fold between my nose and mouth. I didn't look 52 anymore, I looked 62!!! I hated the way I looked suddenly after being considered a pretty woman all of my life. Today I got Restalyn for the first time and it's wonderful!... more
	“Give Me More!” I am going to be 55 this month. I’ve always been very photogenic; in fact, people used to say I should be a model. However, for the last 3 years, I have started to notice what-I-now-know-are-called “nasolabial lines” and “marionette lines.” I was no longer pretty…not even CUTE anymore. My face looked saggy around my mouth. Although my husband said “Oh, honey, you don’t... more
	“I Finally Did It!” I had been obsessing about my upper lip and laugh line for a long time. I looked in my Seattle Magazine for who Seattle thinks is a top rated Dermatologist in the area. I found my doctor in downtown Seattle and set up my apt. What could it hurt, I knew it would dissolve eventually if I didn't like it. I became extremely anxious at the procedure because of all the prep they did. ... more
	“Restylane: Sitcom-worthy DISASTER!” Ok, I didn't understand what I was getting into. I had one TINY lip line that I hoped could be plumped it. Instead, I got chimp lips. The restylane was injected into my upper lip from the INSIDE of my lip (big ouch!) Massive bruising (maybe a reaction too, who knows?) Honestly, my lip swelled to stick out past my nose - a total embarassment for about a week, there was... more
	“Love the Look, Hated the Restylane...” I am a wimp. I am not sure why i thought that getting an injection was not going to hurt. It did. I guess it is not real different than when you get a vaccine and they are pumping stuff into your body. I was kind of expecting the prick of the needle, but then thought that it would be over. I found it uncomfortable. Would I do it again? Yes, I would. The next time, I will be prepared for... more
