If unhappy please reverse the fillers, but it appears you have an allergy and this needs to be treated first.   Please see your physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear sophia080:The redness under the eyes following a filler injection could be caused by:infection from the skininfection from the fillerallergic reactionSince it has gotten worse over a day, a serious infection from this blepharitis could occur. Please seek immediate evaluation and care from the injecting physician or if unavailable from your nearest emergency room. I wish you well!

It sounds like you are having an allergic or irritant reaction to something other than the filler-either something they prepped the area with or something you are using. Check with your dermatologist to be sure

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Honestly that looks like irritation more than anything. Restylane is an HA filler but perhaps what they cleaned the area with, or a topical numbing that was applied, or the gloves on your skin caused an irritation. I'd recommend cool water and hydrocortisone to the area to calm it down. I don't think it is the Restylane. I think it is a contact allergy. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
