Botched Restylane under eyes, now doctor rejects hyaluronidase and wants to SQUEEZE the Restylane out? (photos)

March 1, 2016
Asked By:urlm in New York, New York, USA

1 month post op, bigger bags+discolouration. Dr appears to have injected too superficially and in wrong places. Went back for consultation. Dr rejects hyaluronidase, says it can dissolve and destroy natural acids and cause more discolouration (contrary to what I read on here), and wants to poke a hole and SQUEEZE it out? Is this safe? Risks?? He insists this is best, and that hyaluronidase is only last resort. He also wants to inject more Restylane afterwards, this time deeper. Can I trust him??
