Juvederm for Tear Troughs

Hello and thank you for the question. The description of your tear trough as a consequence of Juvederm injection is not typical. It would be helpful to know how far out from the procedure you are. In general, mild lumpiness can be massaged out in the early stages of treatment. However, if this is longstanding sequelae (greater than 2 weeks), I would be concerned this is a result of poor injection technique and may require the use of hyaluronidase to correct it. I would confer with... more

You can massage the lump

You can massage it. It will often get better and it can also be there for years. If it’s not going away, it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase.

Visible bumps after Juvederm under eyes

If you can see a lump after you have had Juvederm injected under your eyes, there could be several reasons.  It may have been injected too high in the skin.  The skin here is very thin and injections should be performed to place the product under the muscle, along the bone.  There may have been too much product injected.  Or you may have swelling that is lasting a little longer than average.  If enough time has gone by that you can assume the swelling is gone,... more

Juvederm for tear trough of the lower eyelid skin injections

Usually when fillers are injected in this off-label use, there is less chance of developing nodules and visible bumps when the Juvederm or REstylane is injected underneath the muscle. The skin here is too thin and a filler above the muscle could be more visible than desired. You may be seeing the effect of the threading of the implanted filler along the track it was laid. If light casts very noticable shadows, you may want the filler expressed through tiny insertion sites or consider... more

Palpable Juvederm

Generally, if you can feel the Juvederm after one day, it is too concentrated.  A little firm massage should dissipate the filler and improve the appearance.  If this is unsuccessful, the filler can be dissolved.

Best Way to Take Care of Excess Juvederm in Lower Eye Lid Hollow

Hi LA, "Rope-like" is not a good adjective when describing the lower eye lid hollow.  We prefer Restylane in the lower eye lid hollow as it is less hydrophilic (attracting water to it), and has less tendency to swell in this delicate and unforgiving area.  You should be sure that your injecting physician is well experienced in this area, and discuss whether the "rope" should be injected with hyaluronidase to attempt to remove it.  Good luck and be... more

Contour Irregularities following Juvederm

If is important to know how recently the injections were placed.  If they were very recent a degree of swelling and induration is common in the injected area.  These issues can be improved with gentle massage.  If these irregularities persist after some time, it is probably due to incorrect injection of the filler.  In the periorbital area these filler materials have to be injected deep, due to the thin nature of the lower eyelid skin.  When injected to... more

When were you injected?  Has all the swelling gone away already?  If so, the best options for you are to have the area massaged by your physician to achieve the result that you want.  If that doesn't work, then hyaluronic acid (Juvederm) can be dissolved by hyaluronidase.

Juvederm

Sometimes if juvederm is threaded too superficially, it may look like a thread. You sometimes can massage this down or you may need hyaluronidase to melt it.

Juvederm in the lower lid hollow

Try massaging the bulge. If this does not help, go back and either get more Juvederm to blend it better or dissolve it with hyaluronidase.

Filler visible under eyes

Lower eyelid skin if very thin in most people.  For that reason it is easy for the filler to be seen if it does not end up in exactly the right location.  I tell my patients to wait for two weeks after an under eye injection to judge the final results.  Eyelids swell very easily and fillers like Juvederm work by attracting fluid.  If you have some swelling in can look like there is too much filler in a given location.  If you still see the filler after... more

Most likely no. But it will metabolize away in time. Or seek other treatments. Best of luck from MIAMI Dr. Darryl j. Blinski

Visible Juvederm

Sometime if the injection is too superficial, it can be visible.  Your surgeon should have a product to melt the product away.  Otherwise, it could be several months to a year until it is absorbed by your body.  This is only possible for HA products such as Juvederm and Restylane.     Good luck.

Bulge in undereye area after Juvederm injection

It's important to know how long ago you had the injection in order to predict the likelihood that it will soften. It is normal to have some swelling after hyaluronic acid injections.  If it's only been a day or two, apply ice on the area for 10 minutes every two hours while awake.  Make sure to cover the ice so that you don't get ice burns on your delicate under eye skin. If it's been longer than a week or two, the chances of a resolution are smaller. ... more
