Do the natural collagen and fats under the eyes re-generate after being dissolved with hyaluronidase? (photo)

December 23, 2013
Asked By:freeebird in Sydney, AU

I had lumps under my eyes from Restylane injected in 2010. I'd left it alone to dissolve over time. In Jan 2013, I visit a plastic surgeon who said my eyes look terrible (they weren't that bad) and he can fix this with hyaluronidase. He injected A LOT my eyes now have wide horrible indentations underneath. Its not filler but either too much natural collagen dissolved or fat herniation and my skin is loose. I had Perlane injected 1wk ago to hide dents but they still look terrible and lumpy.
