Migraine, Nausea and Body Aches After Restylane Injections?

girl01979
Four months ago I had restylane injected in tear troughs with no side-effects. Last week, I had non-surgical rhinoplasty with restylane; the doctor used he remaining product to refill my tear troughs. I'm very happy with the aesthetic result. However, I've been feeling unwell since. The day after the injections I developed a migraine for the first time ever. Two days later I had muscle aches, nausea and headache which lingered for 4 days. Why is this? Should I avoid restylane in the future?
