I had filler under eyes more than one year ago. Over the last six months my under eye (right side only) has become swollen. Do you know what might have caused this? The doctor who injected my eye advised they used Juvederm volite but agree this reaction is very unusual. Any advice is welcome. Thank you

Answer: Post-Filler Under Eye Puffy Pillow Often Due To Lymphedema
I'm sorry you had such an extreme reaction to your lip injection treatment. It's hard to say what might have caused it but I'm happy to hear you have found an alternative that does not produce that same swelling!
For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest...
It's best that you wait two weeks before placing continuous firm pressure on the treated areas. This would include goggles and tight masks. After two weeks the product should be settled and any swelling should be resolved.
