Cheek filler caused malar edema - still there after dissolving, what next? (Photos)

Asked By:Vixie89 in England, United Kingdom

Hi Doctors, Please can you help advise? I had 2ml of cheek filler across 4 months and at first it looked fine. However I noticed a lot of unusual swelling and fluid build up which I’d never had before around my eye socket. I had the filler dissolved and have had 2 sessions but I am still suffering with fluid. I feel so conscious as my eyes feel so heavy with fluid and people have commented that it looks like I have been ‘hit in the face’. What can try next? More dissolve or other treatments?
