I am freaking out. I had resty injected 4 months ago in the folds around my mouth - conservative amount - 1 syringe total. I went back today for a touch up because I thought I needed a bit more. I think Dr. went way overboard! I kept saying, "not too much"...she said it looked great. Ugh, I look like a freak.
I hope it's swelling, but I dont think it is all swelling...seriously, what do I do? I've been massaging it, but maybe that's not a good idea? What now? I cannot go in public. My husband is out of town til Friday so that is why I did this now.

Answer: Swelling After Restylane Swelling after having a Restylane treatment is very common, especially within the first few days. It can continue to reduce in swelling over the next couple of weeks. It is fine to massage the area, but over time, the swelling should subside on its own and the area should look less full. If you still do not like the look after allowing ample time for the swelling to subside, see your injector. There are ways to dissolve the filler with hyaluronidase, but normally this is not necessary.

Answer: Swelling If the treatment was performed just today, then I would suggest you avoid touching or massaging the area unless it was advised by your injector to do so. This is because product can be displaced. At this time, you are probably affected by swelling, and the massaging may make it worse. Please wait 2 weeks or so and if the swelling hasn’t subsided by that time and you don’t see the results you want, return to your injector for a follow-up.
