One week ago I got restylane under the eyes, 3 days later I developed what I believed to be a deep zit, I have gotten them there before but not that deep. It is painful/pressure like a cystic zit but I'm afraid it is an infection. I am not home for another 6 days, do you think I'll be ok till then and what does it look like to you?

Answer: Is the bump a pimple or Restylane related?
Hi @makzz. 0.5 cc into each tear trough is often enough, but it's possible that you require additional tear trough fillers. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications....
Hi @anomb! I would recommend waiting two weeks to allow the swelling subside. If you are still unhappy after two weeks, you can dissolve the product with Hylenex. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!
Hi @koriannkendl! Swelling can last up to two weeks. If you are unhappy with the final results, you can dissolve the unwanted filler with Hyaluronidase. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!
