I had Restylane injections 5 days ago. Some swelling has gone down but now I have Restylane induration lines where it was injected going from my upper lip toward my nose. no redness or pain. I got no post treatment instructions. What should I do?

Answer: Restylane takes time to settle I always tell people not to be concerned over swelling/bumpiness within the first several days after a hyaluronic product has been injected. I would give it at least 2 weeks and let it settle down before seeing the doctor. We usually wait a month before doing any refinement of the procedure. A refinement could be removing product with hyaluronidase or adding more product if there is an area that is under corrected. But don’t be overly concerned. Even the best doctor can have a situation where there’s unevenness and that is not necessarily related to having too much product, it is often the body’s reaction to the product and the result may still turn out to be fine. You don’t want to evaluate the correction before you let all the normal swelling resolve.
