Temple filler lumpy after 2 weeks. Do I need to wait more time to smooth out?

April 3, 2019
Asked By:bethms1222 in Tampa, FL

I had my temples filled with Restylane lyft (1/2 syringe each side) via a cannula and its been exactly 2 weeks and it's still lumpy. I now have dents/grooves where I didn't have before. Should I wait longer to see if it smoothes out? I have another appointment in 2 weeks for my 4 week follow-up and should I just address it then or be seen now?

Jason Emer, MD says:

​Fillers such as Restylane Silk, Belotero, or Juvederm can work well to treat lines around the mouth, but the best first option is laser resurfacing or deep peels to induce collagen production. Superficial radiofrequency devices and microneedling can help as well and are less invasive. I s...
