Alternative to Restylane for Acne Scarring?

Hi, I've twice had Restylane injections on my left cheek to improve a depressed area possibly caused by fairly mild acne scarring. However, both times I've had significant skin peeling/flaking and acne-like formations for about 3 weeks after the injections. I'm worried that they just made the scarring worse. I'd still like to get an injectible filler, but I don't think Restylane is for me.
Is there any information on how patients react to other fillers if they've had bad reactions to Restylane? Can you recommend an alternative?
