Why Didn't The Filler for Under Eye Hollows Do the Job?

Asked By:toluca2323

I have dark and recessed under eye hallows and went to get restylane to correct the problem. After two weeks of major swelling, I was left with little pools of the product under each eye and still had hollowed out under eye circles! I went to see a plastic surgeon who injected said it may not have been injector error, maybe my anatomy just doesn't support a "filled in" under eye area. The rest of my face looks good for my age (42) but my eyes look old, do I just have to live with it?
