How Should I Relieve Numbness/tingling on Upper Lip 2 Weeks After Restylane Injection?

February 13, 2012
Asked By:Kath in Boston in Massachusetts

The injecting doctor said don't do anything and another doctor in the practice said upward massage in the cheek area will help. He thinks it irritated the infraorbital nerve. It feels better with upward message of Restylane material just below my eye. I am terrified of having another needle injected to dissolve some of the Restylane. Will it cause permanent nerve damage or will it just be an inconvenience until it dissipates? Should I continue massaging?
