Volbella versus Restylane for tear troughs...which is a better choice?

December 7, 2018
Asked By:Meikameo in Burlingame, CA

I am an Asian female and have a flat facial anatomy. I have had Restylane several times now to my under eyes (once via syringe and twice with blunt tip cannula). Each time, regardless of injection mode, I was left with raised ridges at the site of where the injected product lays and I can palpate the lumps of product. I heard from another MD that she prefers Volbella saying it’s lighter and gives smoother results, but I read it can be lumpy. Any preference Volbella vs Restylane for under eyes?
