Since Restylane treatment to my tear troughs 2 months ago, i have noticed a ridge beneath this area affecting my right side only. Will more filler minimise this effect? I don't want to enhance the problem. 1.5ml of Restylane was used in total. i don't have any before pics however i have never noticed this before the filler. Along with best treatment options, what would most likely be the cause? I sincerely appreciate any responses or advice!

Answer: The simplest thing is shaping the product with a small amount of enzyme.
Thank you for your question. It is difficult to tell what this is from your photo. However, if this is the Tyndall effect (when filler is placed superficially) it can be dissolved with hyaluronidase. I recommend having a follow up with your injector for an evaluation. Best of Luck!
If you can infection, it's not the filler material that gave it to you. It's the technique and the fact that lip mucosa cannot be completely sterilized. You should listen to the doctors who examined you. You should consider dissolving any remaining filler material before getting injected again.
Thank you for your question. What you are experiencing is very unlikely due to Restylane injections. It is very rare for Restylane to affect vision, however when it does the onset is fairly quick. However, at your age, these are serious symptoms and I recommend having a consultation with an eye...
