Hello all! I got restylane treatment for my smile lines last September and I loved it while it was swollen and freshly done but two weeks after they were back and my makeup was sinking as usual. I'm uploading pictures of the smile lines with and without makeup so you see my issue. I just turned 21 and I look old because of them so what can I do to get rid of them and what can I do to prolong the restylane or should another filler be used? I feel like I wasted my money.

Thank you for sharing your question about Restylane. Based on the photo you have provided, you appear to be an excellent candidate for tear trough fillers. You will likely only need 1 syringe of Restylane to start, but may need to add more if you do not see enough correction. I have found that...
I would see your primary care doctor as this is not associated with having a dermal filler. On the plus side $300 is a great deal! Hope you feel better. Dr. M
Tretinoin will not affect fillers which are injected into the skin. Using tretinoin will prevent superficial wrinkles and therefore is a must in anti aging skin care.
