Tyndall effect and puffy under eyes. I had half syringe of Restylane under each eye almost 3 weeks ago. Now I have a bluish/dark color under each eye. I also still have puffy under eyes. Can I have Belotero layered on top to fill in and take a way dark color and correct puffy under eyes? What recommendations do you have?

Answer: Swelling Under Eyes After Filler (Juvederm, Belotero, Restylane) -- Hyaluronidase, ThermiSmooth, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra if you are worried about your filler results because there is swelling, lumps or bumps, give it 2 weeks to settle and then consider reversing it with hyaluronidase. in the mean time you can use redlight such as lightstim, radiofrequency such as exilis ultra and venus legacy. The cheeks always should be injected when doing the under eye and you maybe swollen because of poor techniue so see an expert for the best treatment and management. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: There are two main causes for the blueish effect that you see in this photo. Thank you for your question! There are two main causes for the blueish effect that you see in this photo. The first in an actual Tyndall effect, which is the way light reflects through a clear filler under the skin. The second cause is blood trapped or swirled throughout the filler that is under the skin. Both of these causes require a reversal agent to dissolve the filler first. Adding Belotero to an existing Tyndall effect generally does not improve and may worsen the results. The best solution is to dissolve the filler, wait at least one week, then inject Belotero into a deeper plane so that the filler is not visible near the surface. Best of luck!
