Asymmetry 1 year after Restylane injection - can this be fixed? (Photos)

June 11, 2025
Asked By:Fearless4674 in Abbeyville, Colorado

I had restylane injected on the under eye area over a year ago. My right eye looks fine, but my left eye has sort of an “expanded” tear trough. It’s not really noticeable with a resting face, but when i smile i can really see it. Can it be fixed?

Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photos. The first step is to try to dissolve the bumps with Vitrase. If that does not work then consider drawing or excising the bumps with an experienced oculofacial surgeon. Good luck!
