I have always had dark circles under my eyes leading people to ask me if I wasn't feeling well or if I was tired. About a year ago I finally decided to give the Restylane injections a try to smooth out the under eye hollows. The first injection lead to a lot of bruising which eventually cleared up. Follow-up injection four months later looked really great as well. I returned in December 2013 to have it done for a third time. I was stunned at how awful it looked after the swelling went down after about four days. Instead of injecting the hollows under my eyes he injected the top of my cheekbones which made the dark circles and hollows look even worse. This was especially true with the left side which had a very deep dark blue V under it. Return to the doctors office on 6 January. He did a touch up with another syringe that I paid for. I left the office figuring that would fix it. However once the swelling went down it was even worse than before. Unbelievable. Under part of my eyes are extremely lumpy and asymmetrical and I still have a deep V under my left eye. I haven't had this problem with the product before so it is the injector. I am very happy that this is not permanent. But I'm still extremely pissed that I'm going to look like this for a while. I looked better with dark circles under my eyes that I do with this mess that I have now! Never again. That was a waste of almost $750.

have you considered having the product dissolved?

Yes so sorry you and others get unlucky with this at times, it makes me mad that they have the gall to charge you for any type of correction as well. They don't do that overseas, sadly we can't all fly overseas to get this done!! I was thinking about seeing someone in DC as well "Widder" is that who you saw?

No. I don't want to publicly announce who this doctor was. It wasn't Widder, but if you have a good experience wight his Dr., please let me know. I would like to get this fixed if possible. It has been 4 months and it still looks so bad.

I live in the D.C area, have you found a competant physician that does this? If so can you please message me his name?

No not yet, I didn't get a response from Dr Widders office addressing my questions before going, so all I have are the reviews and his comments on this site, which are primarily about boob jobs.
