Squishy feeling in cheek after Restylane Fillers

laurabrookes
The apples of my cheeks are pretty full, but I hardly had any cheekbone and want to create the illusion of a less oblong face. I had an RN use restylane, just a little more than one syringe. Now I feel as though my cheeks look chubby, and I have a weird squishy feeling where the injections are. Is this normal? It has been six hours since the treatment and my cheeks still feel numb. I'm only 20 years old, I'm starting to think I've made a mistake!
