Is there a specialist that uses the "fern pattern" technique for injecting Restylane in New York?

bellodgia76Aug 26, 2017
I've had this style of Restylane work done in Amsterdam by Dr Tom van Eijk who developed this technique and I have yet to find someone in New York that works in this way. I really like the natural results and the very precise style of injecting which leaves a very symmetrical result on both sides of the face. Would love to find someone in NY who uses this technique.

Thank you for your question. In my experience, Restylane does not migrate and cause such symptoms. However unless your symptoms are appearing right after injection, I believe this may be due to other causes. I recommend having an evaluation with your treating physician. Best of Luck!

Hi @bonnieltrager! I recommend waiting 2 weeks for swelling to subside to see the final outcome. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question. It is too early at 4 days post op to determine what your final results will be. It takes up to 2 weeks for all swelling and bruising to resolve to see your final results. If you still have concerns after this time please follow up with your injector. Best of Luck!
