How Come Some People End Up with Bags After Having Restylane Injections?

Sarahmay
I have seen complaints about people ending up with bags under the eye when they had injections to fill the hallows. Why does this happen and can it be prevented? Also how can a doctor insure that the restylane won't move, or migrate down ( which I'm thinking is the cause of the bags?) thanks for your help!
