  I am so sorry that this happened to you. It happened to me too! Be very cautious about having filler put back in! Unfortunately, I had it some put back in and it now looks worse! That filler reducer is a nightmare! I was told if they used it (which I was overfilled under the eyes initially) and if they put the reducer in it would only leave me as I was at my inital visit! NOT! I have aged l0 years under my left eye and am now undergoing fraxel treatments to try and get rid of some of the new horrible wrinkles the reducer created! These wriinkles cannot be treated with botox as they are not created by muscle movement. I now live under ththe mask of glasses.Talk to several doctors before you decide what to do. Would like to hear from you.

  Exactly which procedure did you use, fraxel or urbium? I'm very confused which one to do, as it as both have been suggested to me. HELP CONFUSED!

  Can you tell me more about the derm roller??? Did the doctor say it was useful for depleting the restylane? Also has anyone out there heard that it is helpful with filler nightmares to do fraxel to repair the eye area???? HELP!

  i strongly recommend that you do not use the hyaluronidase in a large dose!! i had it administered after too much restylane was put in the eye area...the first does actually worked, however there was still a slight bumping under the eye area... went back one week after it was put in and the doctor decided to put a little more for that little bump.... she put in too much and my left actually eye actually sunk from the inner eye area making a half circle down to the center of my eye, in addition to a wave of small swrikles i never had along with some ovbious skin discoloration under my eye. it looks awful and i am sick about it. also, i was told the worse that would happen if the dossolver was used would be that i would look like it did before...not true!!! it also dissolved the filler i had around the mouth which had actually looked good!! i am sick and do not know what to do.... i am hiding in sunglasses and readers. anyone have any recommendations??? i have actully consulted with a couple of surgeons to see if under eye surgery would work. the doctor never should (from a very well known practice in northern california) have administered the second dose. i never asked for the second dose.. was there just for a re-check it was her call. how was i to know??? she is the doctor!!! sleepless and sick in northern california
