Is this bruising Tyndall Effect 2 weeks post-op? (Photos)

February 9, 2019
Asked By:scutebb in Virginia Beach, VA

I got filler in my nasolabial folds two weeks ago, one side got so swollen and bruised, the bruise changed from blue to yellow & subsided greatly. But now I’m still left with this slight blue color on the same side! Is this the Tyndall effect or is there any chance the bruise is still blue at 2 weeks post injection? I really don’t want to go back to the same injector to dissolve because even though he’s a surgeon I truly don’t trust his skills anymore.
