Do I need more than two weeks time to recover from under eye filler? (photo)

MuphinTop
Two weeks ago, I visited a double board certified plastic surgeon in NYC, for tear trough injections. This was after three consultations with different doctors. During the procedure, I got light headed, my heart rate increased, and I felt nauseous. The doctor paused then proceeded after I felt better. The doctor used a needle to inject Restaylne. Two weeks later, I still have bruising. One tear trough appears lifted and the other has a lump under the skin (no Tyndall effect). Is this normal?
