Will I return to normal after Restylane is dissolved?

The filler will certainly go away with time. most likely the discoloration will go away with time too. avoid the temptation to treat these problems with anything except time! -since often the treatments will only make matters worse. Be patient. Unlike the other plastic surgeon answering this question, i am... more

Restylane injection in the undereye area is an off-label indication. It means that the company has not studied this product in this particular area. In fact, the only indication for Restylane currently, is its use for nasolabial folds correction. Several other indications are coming soon. So, its use in the... more

To dogeez, Hi.  The fact that you have lumps and blue discoloration means the Restylane was injected too superficially.  There is no great solution.  These are some of your options: 1)   Wait.  This may all go away but in this area it may take a year. 2)   Laser... more

Dear Dogeez, I hope you don't mind if we use your question to expound about this problem. I think if you read it you will find we answer most of your questions.  A few months back, we posted a blog specifically asking: Why is there so much promotion for off label usage of Fillers for the the... more

Dogeez, Restylane can last for months. If your doctor is experienced in injecting hylauronidase, it may be useful to dissolve the hylauronic acid in the Restylane. However, whenever you have injections around the eyes, you have to be very, very careful. This tissue is very thin and very unforgiving.

Dogeez, The lower eyelid tissue is so delicate that filler injections are not recdommended by the companies that make restylane, juvederm and radiesse. The restylane filler will dissolve in a few months with massage. The problem is that discoloration caused by bleeding during the injection may last much longer... more

The skin below the eyes is very thin and injections in this area need to be very deep right along the bone. After the Resylane resorbs you should go back to normal. In the mean time you can massage the are to get the product to disperse a little quicker. This could take a while in the range of several months... more
