Can Hylenex cause deep pimples at injection site and/or congeal under the skin vs spread out?

Asked By:melcm814 in Carnegie, PA

I had restylane put into the wrinkle between my eyes and had a massive reaction within a day, which caused a breakout of blisters all across the area injected. A day later, I got hylenex to dissolve the restylane. It has been a month since the restylane injection, and I've had about 14 hylenex shots since the first one. My skin is still red but now instead of the multiple tiny blisters, I have what appears to be deep pimples all over the spot. How can I make these go away for good?

Answer: Hylenex only dissolves the hyaluronic acid found in Restylane and not your natural tissue.
