Tyndall effect, overfill, or bruise? (photo)

January 17, 2014
Asked By:Xiaomin in Kongiganak, AK

Hello. I had restylane injected 5 -6 weeks ago under my eyes and ended up with the photos attached. I'd like to determine what the discoloration is. I'm afraid to have it dissolved because my doctor said it could also affect my natural hyaluronic acid so we opted to have it treated with radiofrequency and no-downtime YAG laser. I am currently applying auriderm to hopefully lessen the bruising look. The last photo is a photo of me smiling. How long will the discoloration last? thank you so much in advance.
