Why Do I Have Cyst Like Lumps After Having Restylane Injected into my Face 2yrs Ago?

July 30, 2013
Asked By:bonnie56

I have been on steroids for 2yrs now after having restylane injected in my face, I had an ultra sound which discovered lots of small cyst like lumps I can't come off the steroids as soon as I do my face swells and hurts. I have cholesterol deposits under my eyes caused by the steroids my doctor has never seen anything like it, can anyone help.
