Juvederm. Bruising or Tyndall effect? (Photo)

Question

I had Juvederm injected in my tear through 2 weeks ago.,now I have this discoloration..Is this bruising?? Or Tyndall effect??

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This can be reversed with hyaluronidase. I suggest you see an expert for treatment.  Consider venus legacy to speed up the healing.  Best, Dr. Emer.

It is difficult to say from the photos if this is bruising or the Tyndall effect.  If it does not resolve then it is the Tyndall effect.  If you don't like the results you can return to dissolve the product with Vitrase.  Please consult an expert.  Best, Dr. Green

Thanks for your question.  It is difficult to determine what is going on without an in person consultation.  If this is bruising, and if you were treated with Juvederm 2 weeks ago, I would expect it to fully resolve in another 2 weeks.  If it persists, it likely is superficially placed filler causing a Tyndall effect. You should go back to your physician injector and they can inject hyaluronidase to dissolve the filler and hopefully improve the appearance. Best of luck to you!

I suspect this is Tyndall, but I hope to be wrong. By the time you read this, you will know because Im answering this 3 weeks post injection. IF its still blue- its Tyndall. Tyndall is due to too much HA fillers such as Juvederm or Restylane injected too superficially.Good news, it is reversible with an enzyme. I place my tear trough fillers deep, this helps reduce filler migration and also Tyndall. Superficial placement needs to be be done v v cautiously, with only a tiny correction. All the bestDr Davin LimLaser and aesthetic dermatologistBrisbane, Australia.
