Pros is that when done right is wonderful. When the Dr. can't seem to get it correct then it is a nightmare, trying to cover with makeup, going back to have it fixed and looking puffy instead of rejuvenated.
I have had dermal filler. Its been 2 months and I still have discolored areas around my mouth, some uneven areas, some lumpy areas. The filler under one of my eyes is blueish. I had this done by a doctor with experience in fillers.
How do I correct the discolored skin. It doesn't cover completely with makeup.My Doctor: Join to view doctor's name
This doctor can't seem to get the filler right the first, second, etc. time. Discolorations and uneven features resulted
Hi Carmen -- A blueish tint from fillers like Juvederm is called the "Tyndall Effect": Tyndall effect info That page links to a few related FAQs that might help.
Good luck!
Hi Carmen - sorry to hear about your travails with dermal fillers. I looked up discoloration posts on RealSelf (using the search box at the top of the site), and found this one about Juvederm and blueish discoloring
Hope the doctor's answer helps.
