I have been going to the same injector for years but over a year ago he injected me not only with voluma but also restalyne under the eyes (I had a huge lump under my eye, i told him I thought it was filler and he said No it is fat.) I showed numerous people who said, "that is not fat' I went to a lady I get botox from and she had injected melting injection and the lump dissolved. The other doctor had injected me with filler all over my face over a year ago. I know my face, this is not normal.

Answer: Intralesional Anti-Inflammatory Agents Can Help Shrink Filler-Related Puffy Under Eye Pillows Robust fillers, such as Voluma, tend to attract tissue water resulting in edema swelling, which can be particularly prominent and visible in the thin, delicate under eye area. Fillers, such as Restylane under the eyes, especially when placed too superficially have been known to cause bumpy swellings, as well. For this reason, less robust, cohesive fillers, such as Belotero Balance and Teosyal Redensity II, are preferable for use for treating under eye hollows and tear troughs. Moreover, the more robust the filler, the more likely it is to give rise to impedance of the proper lymph drainage in the region, which can show up as puffy pillows in the upper cheek/lower lid border regions, as may be the issue here. If this is indeed the case, I have had personal success treating patients who have come to me with such problems using varying concentrations and amounts of intralesional triamcinolone, 5-FU +/-hyaluronidase. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist. Hope this helps.
