Restylane: Q&A

Post Restylane Complications? (photo)
I had two sets of restylane injections to counteract my eye bags. I have had a mixed set of results. The hollowing has improved but I have become significantly more lined around the outer areas of the eye, and I also have a raised shelf under the right eye, which wasn't there prior to injection. I was hoping to be told that hydralaise would rectify this but instead I am told this is a reaction to the treatment and cannot be reversed, instead over time it might worsen. Can anyone please help!!

If no succes Hylaronidase enzyme maybe used to dissolve the HA. Give some time first to let swelling to resolve.
Good luck!

Restylane issues under eyes are fixable with hyaluronidase
I fully agree with Dr. Naficy. This isn't a reaction to the product or the treatment. It has to do with placement of the product. And even in horrible cases where I have seen or read about people actually having reactions to HA fillers, those CAN be fixed with hyaluronidase. Restylane is fixable and dissolvable, period. I might suggest you see another board-certified injector, who has experience with hyaluronidase, for an in-person assessment, but the issues, as far as I'm concerned, are...

Thank you so much for your comments, just to clarify, I had the treatment over 4 months ago now and this is not bruising or swelling.
