What is this lump under my eye years after Restylane in tear trough? (Photo)

January 25, 2016
Asked By:tabithanash in Nashville, TN

I previously asked this question and included a picture of my eye area with make-up on. In searching thru my pictures, I found this one from several years ago that shows the filler looking like a worm shaped lump under my eye. It has now almost all dissolved except for this one lump that is not budging. I'm beginning to wonder, if this is not a lump of filler then what is this lump?? If it is scar tissue, can it be excised in this location?
