Question

I 've made a tear trough filler 4 days before on saturday 11.02.2017 this was my first time using fillers you can see how my undeye look like there is a differnce but is not what I expected I still look tired and is like the filler is disloving and going in one place is this normal for a filler to work after two weeks or as I amguesing that the doctor inject it wrong?

Robert W. Sheffield, MD · Answer

Your photos suggest that the filler was placed in the teartrough location and there here is still swelling. If there is no lumpiness Isuggest to let things resolve. It is unlikely you have an allergic reaction andsince there is no major bruising the swelling should resolve. The result youget depends on a number factors including the type filler used, where and whatlevel it was placed and or course the amount of filler used. Gentle massagingthe area may help also. If after 2-3 weeks the problem persists I suggest youreturn to the physician's office and discuss your concerns.

Drew Varano, MD · Answer

Filler under the eye can swell for the first few days. It is best to wait a bit longer to see how it settles . If it become an issue , vitrase can reverse the problem .

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

This area is very thin and delicate. Injecting filler here causes swelling and even some water retention for a bit. Some of what you are seeing is that. I would give it a full 2 weeks to assess how it looks after the swelling is gone. It's just too early to tell. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
