Is this tyndall effect? (Photo)

Anathan20Dec 22, 2016
I got this bluish spot/line after my filler topup and it stays for about 2 months alreadt. I use juvederm all the time but after this topup it shows a bit of blue discoloration in my nose bridge. I went to the same doctor the whole time and this happens just this time. Near the bluish discoloration there is small veins that are only visible if it is look closely. Is there anything to worry about? Any suggestion would be helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for this question. I also see small lumps that is consistent with the filler material. Juvederm is not my preference in the tear trough, but I like silk instead. The veins will likely become less noticeable over time, but may need treatment with laser one day. Speak with your injector a...

I believe we're looking at filler that is too superficially injected. You can see your injector to have it dissolved or you can wait for it to go away on its own, but it may take a year or longer. Warmest regards, Dr. ALDO

This isn't typical with an injection with cannulas. I recommend following up with your Doctor for a formal evaluation to rule out infection or nerve impairment. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

It looks like Fordyce spots but it could also be swelling, blister or product. Your injector needs to examine you and make the diagnosis. Warmest regards, Dr. Aldo :)
