I had restalyne injections and got a bad bruise under my left eye, when it resolved I noticed alot of darkness. I thought it was residual bruise or Tindall but it looks like there is too much elevation. I went back to my injector and they injected put 0.3 ml more product to fix the shadowing, it's been 4 days and it's all still there and looks very uneven.
