I received Restylane Lyft in cheeks 2 full days ago. I noticed a hard lump had formed, got nervous and rubbed it out ONE time (30 seconds). Now I'm all nervous that I've displaced the filler due to the area feeling tender/more swollen (from me touching it). Is this possible or am I just freaking out over nothing?
Answer: Can I accidentally displace Restylane Lyft by rubbing area only ONE time? Hi Jess.I don't believe a single massage could majorly displace your Restylane Lyft. However, you should speak with your injector about massaging and if it should be done at all.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)

Answer: I would talk to your doctor Its hard to displace filler that is placed over the bone like Restylane Lift. But if you are concerned, why not touch base with your doctor to discuss further.

Answer: Yes, you can move this product yourself for a short period of time after treatment. I tell my patients not to adjust their own product: "Please do not go home and run into the backside of a spoon." You can "adjust" these products enough to make a dent or hole. In my office, I will ask you to pay for more product to fix the problem. I work very hard to adjust the service at the time it is placed. However, a certain percentage of cases do benefit from an adjustment. Usually we wait about 1 week for this. I recommend letting the dust settle for a couple of days and if you still are having an issue, come clean with your injector and get your service adjusted or fixed.

Answer: Lumps with Restylane for Cheeks--wait 2 weeks, reverse with hyaluronidase This is difficult to answer without an in-person evaluation. If you're concerned, I recommend following up with your injector. There can be some swelling, tenderness and/or lumps after injections, which can last 1-2 weeks. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Massage after Restylane Lyft A single massage after Restylane Lyft should not be sufficient to displace the product. Typically, the product is placed deep and would not be moved or altered with minimal massage. It is best to follow up with your provider to address your concerns. You may have a small area of bruising that feels like a lump. If so, this should resolve with time, but your provider can perform an evaluation to determine the exact cause.
