I had under eye fillers for the first time 5 weeks ago and still have swelling and bruising under the left eye. What went wrong? What do I do?
Answer: Tear Trough Hi @hambino! Most facial filler products that are injected into this area should ideally be placed in the tissue plane directly on top of the bone, or at least underneath the eyelid muscle layer. If a facial filler product is placed too superficial in the skin, or on top of the muscle layer, the product may settle in with an abnormal appearance and can look to be lumpy, swollen, or irregular. The filler products that are preferred to treat this area will have some degree of affinity for water molecules so all of these products will exhibit some degree of hydration and swell once injected into the body. Hyaluronic acid facial filler products that were previously injected into an improper tissue plane can be dissolved by hyaluronidase injections. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Post filler injection swelling under the eye. There are specific fillers for injection under the eye that cause little swelling. The swelling decreases over the course of a week. Fillers not designated for under eye filling can produce prolonged swelling. If the swelling is due to the filler,hyaluronidase can reduce the swelling.

Answer: Swollen after under eye filler It's best to follow up with your injector. Pictures here are of great help, but we know that some fillers under the eyes cause a bluish hue and swelling that can last for years. There are a couple of fillers that are safe under the eyes, but we do not know which filler was used. It is possible that you could reverse the filler and use one of those that has a better track record under the eyes.
