I got PRP injections under my eye two days back. After a few hours of being injected, I had bulge/eye bags under my eyes. The swelling did subside the next day but it’s been two days and one can clearly see bulges under my eyes at the injected area. The injector was young and inexperienced.

Pls. advise
