Why Are Veins Appearing After Restylane in Nasolabial Folds and Nasogenian Grooves?

January 31, 2011
Asked By:lapcas in Los angeles, CA

Earlier today, I had some restylane put into my nasolabial folds and nasogenian grooves. On the left side of my nose (but not on the right) I am getting purplish splotches that follow vein patterns in areas that the needle didn't touch all the way up the side of the nose. What might be going on and how long might it last? Thank you.
