Under eye swelling with onset several days after Restylane injection. Any suggestions? (photos)

Asked By:anomb in Los Altos, CA

I was injected w/ Restylane Friday in tear troughs with beautiful results... Sunday I began having this small bulge of swelling under the right eye and is still there now. As you can see there is a bruise, but not where the swelling is. Was I touching it too much? Did I do too much? Is it one of those that "happen" in some patients & I'll now have an under eye bag? Does it look like something that is very common and should be gone in a few days? Would love to have my beautiful result back :)
