Upper-cheek area below lower eyelid and next to nose looks discolored, seems to have a slight vertical ridge and appears a bit swollen, and eye socket still looks somewhat hollow. I have tried to be gentle with the area. Is this normal bruising, or can the injected material somehow slip down due to gravity? I had it done 10 days ago by an oculoplastic surgeon.
Answer: Restylane in Tear Trough
Restylane in tear trough, if the appearance is too full after swelling has resolved, can be reduce in volume with hyaluronidase.

Answer: Restylane to tear troughs
Restylane and all dermal fillers cause swelling to some extent, and you'd be best advised to follow up with your provider for further assessment and/or massaging of product.

Answer: Can Restylane migrate from the tear trough?
Sorry to hear about the side effects you experienced. It is possible for bruising to take place in the area around your injections, and it appears this is the cause of your issue. But there is no way the filler will slip due to gravity, as the it will not migrate from the injection site.
In general, the typical side effects of Restylane may include:
1) Minor bruising and swelling
2) Infection
3) Hematoma
4) Redness
5) Irregularities due to poor technique
After 10 days, it is not abnormal for bruising to be present. It can take a few weeks to months to completely resolve. I would recommend speaking with your physician who performed the injections regarding any concerns you have. I hope this helps, and best of luck.

Answer: Restylane moving down eyelids
From what I can see in the photos you might have some swelling or a little overfill. I definitely do not see Tyndall effecton the right but might be sllight on left but certainly can be bruising. I have never seen Tyndall effect from Restylane but have seen with Juvederm so I guess that it can happen with either one.
I would wait a week and go back to your doctor if still not happy and dissolve a little of it.

Answer: This is not Tyndall.
Tyndall is a very specific effect where the HA is placed so superficial the area appears blue in color. The photo you have provide shows a generalized overfill that partially may be due to dependent welling or gravitational effects if you will. I do agree with Dr. Prendiville that the solution is carefully administered hyaluronidase to shape your treatment. The goal is to shape the treatment effect rather than remove all the volume. Unfortunately this also requires judgement and artistry and your injector may not be up to the task.
