  • Posted to Restylane Injections Under Eyes Made my Overall Appearance Worse! - Fayetteville, GA on 25 Jan 2012

    @CC899 According to one of the doctors that I had a consultation with, you should never receive injections under the eyes at all anyway. I suppose the doctor that you went to was after your money and couldn't be concerned about your overall appearance or your health at all. Yes, the doctor can inject a substance to dissolve the restylane/juvederm under your eyes, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's called Hyaluronidase and it did absolutely nothing for me.

    I'm sorry to hear about what happened to you. I can definitely feel your pain. It's so funny how one expert will tell you you only need one syringe or half a syringe while another "expert" will suggest two whole syringes. No matter what, they will still be getting your money while you end up with long lasting bruises and/or some sort of disfigurement. Believe it or not, I'm still searching for a doctor to help me with own situation. Several doctors and a hyaluronidase injection later and I'm still not seeing any difference. It seems though anyone with doctor or nurse in their job title can do these injections so it's difficult to control.

    That is so strange. Why did he only put it under one eye? That makes no sense whatsoever. Thanks for the advice. :)

    Jessie, there has been no improvement for me so far. It's very unfortunate. A different surgeons have recommended arnica and hydroquinone but I'm not so sure if those are going to be of any help. Thanks for asking and I'm sorry to hear about your own circles! It's so frustrating!

    Hello and thank your for responding to my review. The first doctor turned me down because he: - Claimed that he didn't see anything wrong. - Felt that I needed to see a therapist for poor body issues - Convinced me to see an aesthetician (which unsurprisingly worked out of the same office) merely to get me to spend more money for makeup I didn't want/need and advice that I could have obtained off the internet. The second doctor did not turn me down, I turned him down because he admitted (and thankfully so!) that he did not know how to inject Restylane in the area that I desired. I will admit that I had no idea that you had to go to someone who was a "qualified injector". I was under the impression that the doctor I went to was qualified based on his website. However, judging by what Dr. Few said in his article on this very website, it gives me the impression that my doctor was not qualified at all and it was my fault for not knowing that. Yes, I purchased two syringes of Restylane. Unfortunately the only thing that seems to be improving are the dark bruised lines under my eyes. Nothing else has changed.
