Is It Normal to Feel Pressure Around Eyes After Filler Injection?

Blaze1984Sep 10, 2013
I had filler injected to my undereye area due to undereye hollow 2 days ago. Is it normal to feel pressure around the eyes along with mild headache? I also can feel the filler, especially the left eye, when I move or roll my eyes. I feel that the doctor injected a little more filler than he should, as I can see the filler slightly bulging, but not noticeable. Maybe too close to the eyeballs?? Any advice would help.

Lasers will not melt or decrease the lifespan of fillers. Most lasers don't penetrate to deep into the skin that will affect any previous treatments. I suggest having more hyaluronidase injected with a reputable skilled physician

Thank you for your question. Radiesse is great long lasting option for your chin. It may last about 8months-1year with just 1 syringe. The only thing to be careful is the sterile technique in an AIDS patient. I suggest having a consultation with an expert injector who can provide great results....
