Not Worth it with the Risks

It has been 8 months since I had the Juvaderm injected under my eyes and i can still feel the lumpiness under each of my eyes(feels like pea sized lumps) and the lump in my left cheek is still palpable. The Juvaderm has also worsened complications with an existing edema problem in my face that I developed as a result of an upper jaw surgery. Although there was not a lot of substantial swelling in my face or under my eyes immediately following the procedure, within a few days I began to notice my face looking considerably more swollen, especially in the area around my mouth. I see a lympatic massage therapist every few months from performs lympathic massage treatments on me to help me manage with the edema and at the latest appointment, she told me that she could not remove the edema from my face!! She told me that she felt the Juvaderm was "blocking" the lymph nodes. I myself perform lympathic drainage at home and have noticed that ever since I had the juvaderm injections, the edema had bee extremely difficult to drain through massage whereas before it was effective at doing so. Also, the area underneath my tear troughts is the most swollen. This casts shadows to the under eye area making it look like I have dark circles when I am rested. Thus, the very reason that I went to get the Juvaderm injections for has been made worse by the Juvaderm!! On top of this my entire face is more swollen, and my entire way of dealing with my pre existing surgical edema has been made ineffective by the filler. I have been living with a very difficult situation for a few years from my surgical outcome and the last few months have been an even bigger nightmare for me with the additional complications from the filler.
