Posted under Restylane q&a

Can a round bump in the tear trough area post-restylane ever be swelling? If anything IS wrong is it too late to fix at 2 wks?

I had restylane for the eye hollows several days ago by a very experienced plastic surgeon. One eye has a small round bump and both eyes still have exaggerated horizontal creases. Both tear trough areas just aren't smooth. Can bumps ever be swelling and even out in a couple weeks? I get mixed answers here. I will be shocked if it's Dr error. If it does turn out to be a bump(s) that needs to be dissolved, is it possible that the Dr could have injected correctly but my body didn't respond well?
