Received half a Syringe of Restylane (0.4cc) to treat both tear trough areas...Not sure if it was enough

Asked By:Delilah_Here in Rancho Cucamonga, CA

Abt 11 days ago I had 0.4cc syringe of Restylane injected into both of my tear trough areas (0.2ccs on each side). For the few days afterwards my eyes looked great! But then I noticed that the areas are somewhat hollow again and I'm not sure if this is normal b/c it has now settled or if I should have gotten a full syringe (1/2 syringe on both sides) to treat the areas. Should I go back to my doctor and get another 0.4cc syringe injected into both areas (0.2ccs on each side) ?
