Botched eye filler. Is this the Tyndall effect? Will it help to have the filler removed? (Photo)

Asked By:lisapbell05

Hi! About 2 months ago I had under eye filler(Restylane) There was quite a bit of bruising and swelling. It seemed to go away but now I have worse dark circles, puffiness. It's worse in certain lighting. I went back to by dermatologist last week after reading about the Tyndall effect. I asked to have it removed. She said it's not the tyndall effect and would not remove the filler. I'm really upset about this and will be going to a different dermatologist. Is she wrong?
