I had fillers injected in my Tear Through 72 hrs ago. My surgeon did not explain well how much product he added. And from what I heard during the procedure he injected belotero & possibly juvederm. Why did I choose this doctor to begin with? Because he performed a breast reduction 10 years ago and fixed my bottom lip after my dog attacked me. Both things impecably done. I’m insecure because I read horror stories & I look AWFUL. Even if this looked better, can it transform into continued edemas?

Answer: Dermal fillers Dear blabbas, Juvederm has significant swelling post injection. I would follow up with you plastic surgeon but typically I tell all my patients to wait a full two weeks. Generally at 2 weeks they are happy and glad they didn't dissolve.

Answer: Swelling after Tear Trough Injections--wait 2 weeks, reverse with hyaluronidase It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have swelling, which will take 1-2 weeks to resolve. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase. Keep in mind, a combination approach will give the most improvement. Fillers, lasers, and microneedling/PRP can improve under the eyes. My patients try to get non surgical treatments to avoid surgery. We use PRP and stem cells there often. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for your short and long term goals. Best, Dr. Emer
