White mark after under-eye filler? (Photo)

Question

Hi there, I had 1 ml under 3 days ago - doc (cert facial plastic surgeon) went in via side / from temple only. Immediately after (2 / 3 mins) i saw a white line that was diagonal from the corner of my eye (corner nearest to the ear). I now have a white line - seems to follow the orbital grove. Superficially applied filler hence why white? Will it dissolve naturally over 1 or 2 weeks, or too bulky? Dissolve w enzyme or put more above to equal out?

It is difficult to see what the white lines actually is if it is swelling or product displaced too superficially.  It appears most likely to be product. I would recommend waiting a week to see if it dissipates. If it remains the same I would return to your treating physician to have the product dissolved. For the best cosmetic results please consult an expert in injections in the delicate under eye area.  Best, Dr. Green

Hello
The swelling post procedure may be causing this line. So be patient and allow full resolution of 2 weeks. At your review appointment with your provider discuss your results.
I hope this helps.

Hello,
after filler injection , we would expect some swelling which would go down. 
Being said that, yours could be a bit overdone. I would recommend to go to the physician injected the filler and ask for advice. 
If in fact it is overdone, using enzyme hyalaze can take care of it. He may suggest to wait another week before doing anything.
Good Luck -- Dr Ray
