I had tear trough injections 3 days ago with Restylane. Am I overfilled or too puffy? (Photos)

Asked By:Ski bunny

I’m not sure if it’s too soon or I’m over-reacting but I don’t like how puffy my under eyes are now. The swelling has gone down and have some yellow bruising under my eyes but looks like I have too much filler, bit too puffy near the outer edges where the filler is hanging out low. I asked my doctor and he said “it’s to be expected” - How can I smooth this out / tone it down? Does it look overfilled? I want to look natural.
