My eye is swollen where I had filler after getting eyelash extensions, could it be related?

Question

Hello, I got undereye filler a month ago. I got eyelash extensions last night and I woke up this am to a swollen undereye area just where the filler is. Any suggestions?

Brian C. Reuben, MD · Answer

Thanks for your inquiry. Since your a month out from filler injections, it would be very unlikely to have a reaction related to the filler. Hopefully you get better quick. Good luck.

You may have swelling for 1-2 weeks after injections. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

could well be an inflammatory reaction to the filler triggered by the extensions, or possibly an allergive reaction to the eyelashes or chemicals used. Might be best to go to the clinic where you had them done for a check up.
