Hit in face 10 hours after Restylane injection! Did I damage or shift fillers?!

Thank you for your question. Continuous movement and pressure like facial massage can affect the locations of facial fillers, thus altering your final outcome. However, blunt force trauma is usually not enough to shift the fillers around. I recommend waiting 2 weeks until your results develop before worrying too much. Good luck!

 

Let the face settle a few days before freaking out.  It is improbably that the pillow moved the product but if you told us you were hit with a fist, that would be more likely to move the product.  Once the swelling from the trauma has settled down, just make a decision about how things look.  If the treatment looks messed up, you may need more product to compensate for change.

This is difficult to answer without before and after pictures. Based on your description, it is unlikely that you negatively impacted your results. If you remain concerned, I recommend following up with your injector. Keep in mind, you may have some asymmetrical swelling, which will last 1-2 weeks after your procedure. See an expert.
