Restylane Lyft in cheeks resulted in a black eye (Photo)

Asked By:kendralynn113 in New England

Hello - I had Restylane Lyft injected into my cheeks with the goal to reduce my nasolabial folds. I got a serious black eye from the injections. This picture is 3 days after injection. Is this normal, or should I be concerned?
