Redness Along Length of Tear Trough Post Juvederm

At 8 wks out now, with one injection of hyaluronase into each side, I still have pronounced blue Tindall splotches beneath each eye, below which there are distinct pouches where the filler perches. So I look truly awful in direct overhead light. However, when I wear makeup and avoid overhead light, the filler does raise the troughs to level with my cheeks. It's an imprecise science no doubt. I don't know if I will do it again, perhaps by a different doctor. I hated the deep troughs more than I hate the blue and pouches. The red line is fading, so I have hope of a few months where I look good before it all gets absorbed.

Having trouble getting a good pic of my own eye. Def not infection, I suppose granuloma is possible, though there are no blisters. That would be sarcoidosis right? The surgeon who did the filler said he thought it was rosacea, put me on Elidel even though that's off use for rosacea. It's not improving the problem at all. Best to describe it as a distinct line of closely spaced red spots tracing below the blue-tinged overfilled area. I asked if they were injection sites but he thought not. I do have some adult acne on my nose and forehead, but I don't think it's rosacea as I tried metronizadole when the pimples first cropped up a few years ago. I will make an appt for hyaluronase for the bluish pillows and see what happens to the red linear feature. Yes I look quite a bit worse than before the procedure and I haven't found a concealer/ foundation combo that covers it, especially in direct overhear light. Will post when I get a photo and again after enzyme is used.
