Posted under Cheek Fillers q&a

How long will it take for my pillow face/chipmunk cheeks to resolve? It's a result of under eye/cheek filler for eye bags.

silvermoon79
I had touch up filler for under eye/cheek area for eye bags 17 days ago which resulted in persistent swelling and pillow face/chipmunk cheeks. Have been taking Arnica, Bromelaine, antihistamines regularly. Applying Arnica gel becuase the burising was pretty bad. I also look older now probably because my face looks fat. Will this go away as the filler disappears or is this permanent damage? This was the 3rd time that I have done filler for the same problem over 2 years time frame, same provider
