I had .5cc under each eye of Resty., maintained for 3 years. 1 or 2 sessions a year. Primarily mid to lateral cheek area, not tear-trough. Placed right along the top of, and on the rim, giving higher cheeks. Under 1 eye, I had minor persistent swelling. Also had upper eyelids done on 3rd year. On same eye I got an eyelid infection. After it resolved, the swelling was much worse, chronically. It is like a festoon, & eyelid bag, but is all fluid, no fat. Despite years since last treatment. Help?

Answer: Forget spammy answers, you need hyaluronidase to back out all of your product.
Bruising and swelling is normal, you might be someone who is very sensitive and is taking a bit longer to recover. I would suggest scheduling a follow up appointment with your injector to see ensure you're healing correctly Kenneth Hughes MD
Hello
Many thanks for your question
You can wash your face gently after a couple of hours - ideally best to wait 4 hours if possible. No vigorous massage or rubbing the areas where the product has been applied.
Hope this helps
