Please consult with an accredited, board certified surgeon. It is all about designing the perfect plan for you and your body!

Good luck, please let us know how it goes.

Thank you for your question. No, it does not take 6 months to see your results with Juvederm. You should see results immediately, but it can take up 2 weeks for any bruising and swelling to resolve. Juvederm is not the best filler for the tear trough area as it attracts a lot water and causes edema. The best filler for this area is Restylane as it is thinner filler and attracts less water. I recommend having a consultation with expert injector for an evaluation and treatment. Best of Luck!

Except for some swelling you should have immediate results form Juvederm.  Please post before and after photos to help you.  Best, Dr. Green

Juvederm results are immediate although it can take up to 7-10 days for any bruising/swelling related to the injection to resolve. You should be able to judge your results at this point and do not need to wait 6 months to see your results. Juvederm is not the ideal filler for the tear troughs/undereyes. I prefer Belotero or Restylane for this indication. I would probably recommend that you see another injector for any future injections. Any injector that does not stand by their work is not worth going too. Look for an experienced physician injector.

Generally speaking, the effects of fillers should be relatively immediate.  That being, said there may be some swelling from the injection itself, that usually resolves after a few days.  The results of Juvederm, and all fillers, are quite dependent on the technique, including amount used, depth of injection, and location.  I am sorry to hear about the bad experience, unfortunately if you are not happy with the results, your choices may be limited to have hyaluronidase injected to dissolve it, or wait for the effects to wear off.  It is also possible that you were under-injected, in which case a touch up may be all that is needed, but of course a good examination would be necessary to determine best direction going forward.  Best of Luck.
