3 weeks after restylane injections under eyes and I am very unhappy with the result. Ive been reading horror stories about hyaluronidase on this site. I'm only 26 and Im afraid of further damage, bags, loose skin. Eyes were hallow- no bags before. Pics are after bluish lump was "smoothed out" by PA. Eye has been twitching a lot since. If I don't desolve will I eventually go back to my old self and how long would that take? What's the swelling/bruising downtime for hyaluronidase or side effects?

This far out, Restylane shouldn't be causing any eye problems. I don't think redness is from Restylane. I think you should see an Ophthalmologist to get a good eye exam.
This could be residual swelling that will go away in a few more days, or excess Restylane. If it’s excess Restylane, a little bit of hyaluronidase will help get rid of it. Either way, it’s not permanent!
Hi @Liz_Woods! Hyaluronic acid facial filler products that were previously injected into an improper tissue plane can be dissolved by hyaluronidase injections. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas...
