Effects on Skin After Restylane Resorbs

nexus21
Hello, please advise on what happens to facial skin after restylane has resorbed. (or any other filler or fat injection for that matter.) I have read that sagging effects on the skin are unlikely and also that natural collagen production may be enhanced after filler or injected fat has resorbed, however I have yet to come across any negative effects. Assuming a successful injection, could any layer of the skin be left worse off once the filler has resorbed?
