I would like to get Restylane under my eyes. How can I prevent a needle-mark injection scar? I would rather not get any Restylane, if it will leave a permanent needle prick scar.

Answer: Restylane treatment for the tear troughs It is highly unlikely that this procedure would cause you to permanently scar in the area where the needle enters your skin. The needles used for this procedure are tiny. You may have a small red mark which will fade away within days.Bruising, tenderness, and swelling (which are temporary) are the most common side effects with Restylane injections. Sometimes microcannulas are used to further minimize the risk of side effects. In the hands of an experienced Dermatologist, side effects will be minimal.

Answer: Needle mark after filler You can have needle marks with redness after filler injection but these go away a few days after the injection. I have never seen a permanent scar in the eyelids from the needle track. The most common problem with the injection under the eyes (tear trough) is small lumps or bumps or bruising that usually resolve in less than a week. It is often easy to cover this with makeup. Hope this helps and good luck
