I had Restylane injected under my eyes and now have bags. Can I go to another dermatologist to dissolve it?

Thank you for sharing your question and I'm sorry to hear of your issues. it is no issue to have it dissolved by another office if it has been 2+ weeks since placement. Hope this helps and we are happy to see you at your convenience.

Hi @mhwilliams! Most facial filler products that are injected into this area should ideally be placed in the tissue plane directly on top of the bone, or at least underneath the eyelid muscle layer. If a facial filler product is placed too superficial in the skin, or on top of the muscle layer, the product may settle in with an abnormal appearance and can look to be lumpy, swollen, or irregular. Hyaluronic acid facial filler products that were previously injected into an improper tissue plane can be dissolved by hyaluronidase injections. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

if you are worried about your filler results because there is swelling, lumps or bumps, give it 2 weeks to settle and then consider reversing it with hyaluronidase.   in the mean time you can use redlight such as lightstim, radiofrequency such as venus legacy or forma..  The cheeks always should be injected when doing the under eye and you maybe swollen because of poor technique so see an expert for the best treatment and management.  start at home emerageskin refit eye, restorsea 10x and eye serum, sente bio complete serum, and AERIFY microneedling system for the best at home treatment for your eyes. in office lasers like co2 or erbium, fractora microneedling RF, and different fillers should be used after reversal. Best, Dr. Emer.
