Had Juvederm injected in my tear troughs 4 years ago & was left with blue "tyndall stripes". Does this effect ever go away?

Asked By:Eliza1 in Royal Tunbridge Wells, GB

I had juvederm injected into my tear troughs four years ago and I have been left with blue tindall stripes which protrude under ny eyes. They seem to be moving downwards too and if a light is above me it looks like I have bags. I can't afford to have it corrected. Will the blue marks ever go and can I break it down by massage or heat? Please reply as I'm feeling really down about my face and stuck not being able to fix it. Many thanks x
