I got fillers/botox around the the eyes from a board certified doctor 12 days ago. The bruising directly under the eye will not go away or seem to improve at all. Will this be permanent? I have a follow up with my doctor soon but looking for some help/assurance in the meantime.

Answer: Complications after Filler/Botox Dear Takeashot,Thank you for your question. Bruising in the tear trough region is common after filler injection. The bruising almost always goes away, and IPL can improve the bruising and have it resolve faster. Make sure your injector uses a microcannula technique, as that is an established technique that will minimize your risk of bruising. Good luck.Nirmal R.

Answer: Will bruising from fillers/Botox around the eyes be permanent? Bruising due to filler and Botox injections around the eyes should not be permanent. This issue normally completely resolves over time. The severity of the bruising can be related to how long it lasts.
