Movement of Restylane in the tear troughs. Did I ruin this area?

Asked By:worrrybug in San Francisco, CA

I had almost a full syringe of restylane injected in my tear troughs 5 days ago. 2 days after the procedure I accidentally moved some of the product that was near my nose. I felt some of the product move and attempted to try to move it back. After that I gently massaged the same side a few times to attempt to "fix" it. I just recently discovered that I was not supposed to massage it. This side now looks a little more flat and also feels funny - like it has been pushed in. Did I ruin this area?
