Best way to fix overfilled my tear troughs? Adding a little more to round the raised portion out? Dissolving it? (Photos)

July 18, 2017
Asked By:LindaLane2017 in DC

I had my tear troughs filled for the first time and had an approximate total of 2 CC of Restylane injected almost 2 weeks ago. Is this overfilled or am I just being paranoid and perhaps it needs more time to settle if there is any residual swelling at all anymore?? I have been taking bromelain and arnica orally as well as topical arnica since before the injection to prep. A week after the procedure the physician said it looked great and it needs more time. I disagree.
