Are my tear troughs still over filled or was the placement wrong? (photos)

January 14, 2015
Asked By:Carmk in Phoenix, AZ

I had perlane injected in my tear troughs one month ago. I swelled horribly but eventually the swelling subsided. Since then I have had a thin "ridge" of what looks like product under my eyes. Underneath the ridge is a very dark line. I have had 3 rounds of hyaluronidase injected to get rid of the perlane but my doctor is doing it slowly. I actually look older since this has all been done. I now have a deep line between the ridge and my eyes. Was it just over injected or is the placement wrong?
