My eyes are uneven after Restylane fillers, did the fillers make it more pronounced? (photos)

Question

I had restalyn fillers under my eyes about 6 months ago. Attached is a before pic, and a current pic. My eyes are uneven. The one on the right is smaller. Was is smaller to begin with? Did the filler make it more pronounce? And most important - how do I fix this? Fillers, botox, surgery?? I know everyone has asymmetry, but eyes are noticeable and it's become more noticeable.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You had a small asymmetry to begin with, which is quite common. For under eye areas, I recommend using lasers and microneedling/prp with fillers to get the most improvement. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for posting your photos. I do not see a big difference between the photos. It might help not to post after injection photos in full makeup next time. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

The eyelid position of the upper eyelid is no different in the after photo.  This is early ptosis.  You have a mild compensatory eyebrow elevation in the before picture which for whatever reason is not seen to the same degree in the after photo.  This is very subtle.  I do microblepharoplasty for individuals with your issues but otherwise it is very challenging for most people to find a surgeon who will even acknowledge issues this subtle.

Thank you for sharing your question. It is difficult to evaluate your eyelids at this point because of the difference in lighting and makeup. The lower eyelids appear to be in the same position as they were prior to May. See an expert in eyelids in person for detailed evaluation.  Good luck,

Thank you for your question. Your lower eyelids appear to be in the same position as they were prior to your Restylane injections. If you still have concerns you I recommend returning to your treating physician for an examination. Best of Luck!
