I looked slightly uneven directly after procedure. 3 days after, when I was very swollen I looked smooth. Now, I am uneven and have even worse circles than before. Before injections I could cover up my dark circles with concealer. Now, post injections, I can no longer do that.

Answer: Tear trough Looks to me as though you are still swollen from the injections. This area is sensitive to trauma and manipulation. Be patient. You may benefit from oral steroids, ask your injector. If this continues after a few weeks, you know you are either over filled or are having a reaction to the material. Be patient for now...

Answer: Restylane for tear troughs, swelling vs. overfill The tear trough area is notorious for having unpredictable swelling. Some people swell a bit, others a lot; as well, there may be some deep bruising in some cases. I always advise waiting 2 weeks to let things settle down. At that point, if it was overfilled, your doctor can inject you with hyaluronidase to dissolve some or all of the filler. If you had no more than 1/2 syringe per side, then I doubt you are overfilled.
