Can Puffy Eye Bags After Juvederm Be Safely Reversed?
I had the hollows of my eyes injected with Juvederm. I'm only 35, but thought it would make me look younger as the doctor recommended it. Now I have puffy bags under my eyes that make me look older. Can this safely be reversed? It's been nine months since injection and it still has not gone down.

Can Juvederm under the eyes be safely removed?
The answer is yes. Juvederm and Restylane belong to the HA ( Hyaluronic acid) filler family. So the good news is that if you don't like the results, it can be reversed with a small amount of Hyaluronidase; an enzyme that starts breaking down the product immediately.

Juviderm Under Eyes Caused Puffiness; Can it be Reversed?
Hi Skin Guru in Lovely Santa Monica,
I have had success in treating patients such as yourself. It is important to exam the affected area, and then if indicated use a very dilute solution of hyaluronidase to bring down the swelling.
I agree with Dr. Cohen that I would only use Restylane in this area in the future. See you at the beach or in the office.
Be well.

Juvederm can last a very long time when it is placed under the eyes. That can be great.....if your happy with the result. However, if your not satisfied with the result, waiting can be difficult. Assuming that the fullness is caused by residual Juvederm, it can be removed very easily. It is can be treated with an injection of Hyaluronidase, which is safe and involves a few small injections. For most people the fullness will go away within a day. If you have had swelling for 9 months it may take
