How long for swelling in temples to subside after Restylane?

Thanks for your query. It generally takes up to 3-4 weeks for the swelling to go down. It also depends upon the amount of filler injected. You can take arnica, as it accelerates the process of swelling, and increase your water intake as it helps the filler to acquire its full potential. Hope it helpsAll The Best

Swelling in the temples usually last 3-7 days after Restylane or any other Hyaluronic acid but longer after Radiesse. If you have lingering doubt you can use hyaluronidase to rapidly dissolve the Restylane within a matter of minutes. Fat transfer and permanent filler Bellafill are other excellent ways to correct the hollows.

You could still have some residual swelling, however it should resolve very soon. If you're unhappy with your results, you can have it reversed with Hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. Sculptra is a great choice. Volbella rare swells in this area. Best, Dr. Emer

Swelling after Restylane typically lasts around 7-10 days however, it can last up to 2 weeks. If it is still tender, then you definitely still have swelling. If the result seems different than you were expecting, I would strongly recommend you to return to the physician who did the injections as there is a dissolver called Helene that can help. Good luck and I hope this helps!

I don't particularly like Restylane for the temples because of this exact problem. I would recommend Sculptra or Volbella in the temple area. If you are unhappy with your results there are ways to reverse the injections. Please return to your injecting physician for a follow up visit. Best, Dr. Green
