Discolouration after Restylane skin booster? (Photo)

July 23, 2017
Asked By:wasinjay in Thailand, TH

3 months ago I had Restylane skin booster injected around my cheeks for reducing pores and acne scars. Immediately after the treatment, I got some discolouration from bruising which stay there for 1 month and didn't improve also my pore and scars as well. So I decided to have later treatment, CO2 and Erbium yag for 2 sessions. Now I'm satisfied with my pores and scars but my discolouration is very prominent. I do not know what kind of conditions I have and how to get rid of it.

Robert H. Cohen, MD says:

Vickiemj, Injecting the tear troughs of the eyes is a nice procedure but initial injections should be "under corrected" to allow for the filler to absorb water from the surrounding tissue and swell. I recommend returning to your doctor for another round of Hyaluronidase. Although it has been...

Thomas Buonassisi, MD says:

Without seeing photos and based on your description, they are likely just needle marks and will fade with time, just by leaving them be. The skin is thinner in this area so they be more visible than in other parts of the face. Sometimes Arnica can help to minimize the risk of bruising prior to i...
