How Should I Deal with Bumps and Bruises After Restylane?

j.j. montana
I had a Facial Plastic Surgeon inject this filler under my eyes on September 5th, and they've caused certain bumps and bruises. I've had to hide since, wondering how to deal with them. Should I massage them to even them out? I'm very desperate. It was a very expensive treat for myself after 2 years of tragedy and illness, and I did this in anticipation of an event abroad that I've been working towards for 10 years. I am desperate beyond words. Please help me out.
