Are There Dangers with Under Eye Filler?

March 22, 2013
Asked By:Patches206 in Paoli, PA

After hollowness following a lower bleph, I decided to fill with restylane. The hollowness is actually in the fat pads under eyes laterally, not tear trough. I used a reputable doctor I heard mentioned on this site. He has done a lot of this and I believe he injected from rim area, not directly into fat pad area. I have now read that this is a dangerous area above the rim to fill. Is the danger only at the time of injection, or do I still have to worry that some permanant damage was done.
