Is this dark line under eyes Tyndall effect or hyperpigmentation? (photo)

stelstarOct 9, 2018
I had my tear trough done (Restylane) with a cannula 10 days ago by a certified doctor and have developed defined dark lines under both eyes the right worse. Can someone please tell me if they think it may be tyndall or hyperpigmentation or something else?

Hi @Meikameo. You can try Belotero if Restylane does not work for you. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Hi @ amb401! Swelling can take up to two weeks to resolve. You can try applying a cold compress and sleeping with your head elevated to minimize the swelling. If you are unhappy with the results after two weeks, you can dissolve the filler with Hyaluronidase. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question, shellyjane! I would avoid taking the Ibuprofen until at least 48-72 hours after injection. Stick to Tylenol for now. Good luck!

Minimal pain and swelling are normal after injections but pressure and severe pain are not. I recommend following up with your Doctor immediately if you are concerned. Best, Dr. Emer
