Restylane Under Eyes: Swelling and Lumpiness on Day 5, Will this Subside? (photo)

Puffy Piper
Please help! I had restylane injected under my eyes 5 days ago by an experienced cosmetic MD. The hollows I had before now look like ugly bags, and I am so depressed and remorseful that I did anything. Will the lumpiness and swelling subside in another week? Will a little hyaluronidase help or can the restylane be extracted? Should I massage it in or let my face rest for another week?
