Restylane Gone After One Day?

Restylane will last for 6-7 months on average, and can last longer in the tear trough. It is likely you experienced swelling the first day, and your physician was conservative with the treatment. You may benefit from a touch up, and I would recommend visiting your physician for a follow up. Bruising is a potential side effect of the treatment, and will resolve soon. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck. 

After fillers it's very common to have swelling for the first 2-3 weeks. Once the area has settled you are able to see your final result. In my opinion, you were probably under-dosed and would benefit from another syringe to achieve full correction

Thanks for the question. It's likely that you had a little swelling in the tear troughs related to the injections, and when the swelling dissipated, the fill was a bit less than you desired. Injection of some additional Restylane would probably be the best option if this is the case. Obviously an in-person physical examination would be best to assess your current status. Check with your doctor, but avoidance of ibuprofen, fish oil, Vitamin E, aspirin etc. would reduce the likelihood or bruising the next time around. Patients often take arnica montana as well. 

We have had excellent results with the longevity of Restylane under the eyes in my practice. Treatment of this area smooths transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek. While I tell patients to anticipate around 12 months of correction, I have had several who have been pleased with the fill of their tear troughs as long as 1 1/2 to 2 years after the treatment. Similar long-lasting correction has been documented by 3-D analysis in a recent clinical trial, performed by some of my colleagues. I've linked to it below. This is an advanced area of filler treatment, requiring specialized understanding of the anatomy of the eyelids and infraorbital (under-eye) area. In my practice, it's one of the two or three most common areas I treat and the patient satisfaction is very high.

I would suggest following up with your provider to see what their assessment may be. It could be that you need more product.

The tear trough area is made of very delicate skin. There will often be swelling for the first day or two after fillers are injected.  Hyaluronic acid fillers are the safest fillers to use in this area. The newest filler, Belotero, does especially well in this area because it can be placed more superficially. It is always better to undercorrect; more can be added later if needed.
