Why do I have swelling one month after tear trough filler?

Asked By:rlbeisenstadt in Boston, MA

About a month ago I received a tear trough filler. I had swelling for about a week. Today, the treatment area on the left side of my face re-gained swelling. Could this be an infection? Will this go away on its own?
