Hyaluronidase and swelling

Steven Wallach, MD answers: What should I do to resolve hyaluronidase side effects?

What should I do to resolve the puffiness and swelling in the lower eyelids? Will it resolve over time? If so, how long should I expect to wait? Or has the hyaluronidase done irreversible damage to the tissue of my lower eyelids and the edema is therefore permanent? There is not much information about hyaluronidase on the internet. I look ghastly. Please help.

Swelling after hyaluronidase injection to treat excess fillers is normal. This may take several weeks to months to improve. You just have to be a bit patient.
