Restylane and Ridges Under the Eyes?

jasperkittycallie
I have gotten restylane injections for the last three years in the tear trough area. Recently I developed half-moon ridges under both eyes. My doctor thought injecting more would fix the problem. He did this twice and it did not help. First, what is the cause of this problem - too much restylane, scar tissue, or poor technique by the doctor; and how can I get rid of the ridges?
