Restylane Gone from TT in One Month?
I got 2.5 units on my tt's done about a month ago (2 units with a later correction). Looked great but I am noticing bags again. Possible or am I just forgetting how severe they were before and kind of 'normalizing' my results? I was hoping I wouldn't have to go in for a correction until November/December since I am young but I did have some pretty deep troughs/bags. I was hoping my correction would be later in the year (as in Nov/Dec) and much smaller than I needed the first time. :-/

Fillers Work Well For Tear Troughs and Typically Last For Long Periods

Restylane to correct deep tear troughs

I have patients who still have some effect from the initial injection for years (2+) following. If there is any question visit your physician again and have them...

Without proper assessment and examination, it's difficult to determine whether you need further treatment and/or possibly different injection technique.

Restylane gone in one month from tear troughs
You would be pretty much the first person to have 2.5 syringes of Restylane totally disappear within just a month. I would recommend you consult your before photos and determine how much was corrected. People are usually shocked at their before photos and yes, have "forgotten" what things looked like before. Consult your pictures and go back to your doctor for an evaluation. If you really had that deep of tear troughs, you may simply need more. Layering fillers over several months can make...
