Restylane Under Eyes - Known Risks and Complications?

May 6, 2009
Asked By:MothersGlow in MI

I have very fair skin and hollow ridges under my eyes that I was born with. I'm researching treatment, and became interested in Restylane, but it is so expensive for something that only lasts 6 months to 2 years. Can I get permanent pigmentation under the eyes from a bruising at the time of injection? If you can, how is it treated? How often do lumps occur, and are they visible? Any better options?
