I’ve had Restylane under my eyes for about three years plus other fillers in my face. Normal to swollen to awful. Went to a new place and the RN does not even remember what she put under my eyes and there is no record. Three rounds of steroid plus dissolving them three times to Juvederm refill trying to make them normal. I cannot even put on moisturizer because my eyes get swollen and watery no matter what I do. Feeling like I’ve developed serious allergies. Super depressed ! Any suggestions?
