It doesn't hurt that much, but the disorienting popping sound and the sensation of something thick being pushed into deep layers makes me feel faint.
Pro tip: Chug a sugary drink before your appointment and carry a snack in your bag for after. Pain is minimal and lasts only a few seconds, so the main challenge is just staying calm and reminding your brain that nothing is actually going into your eyeball. Liotta prefers to inject under the eyes with a blunt-tipped cannula instead of a needle because it requires only one entry point to reach all the areas beneath the skin.

This dissolution can be necessary when the filler affects the blood supply in a part of the face.
It can also be useful to correct problems when these fillers lead to bad results. I myself have used these hyaluronidases to dissolve fillers that were badly placed in patients. See the irregular-looking filler in the lower eyelid region of the woman below, and how this region looked after dissolving the filler with hyaluronidase:. An enzyme, called hyaluronidase, can be used to dissolve certain fillers and correct irregular results.
I am just happy I have a product that works against the major class of fillers put in this region hyaluronic acids. Since it can dissolve this material, I am therefore able to help these patients. In these cases, I can sometimes use invasive surgical techniques to remove these products, but often, there is nothing that can be done to help these patients.
As a result, it is my strong recommendation that these types of permanent and partially permanent filler products not be placed in the eyelid region.
Some plastic surgeons actually have their more qualified physician extenders do their filler work for them, so having the plastic surgeon inject those fillers could be a mistake. And while some physician extenders have great background and experience, one should be careful because many do not. In the end, although using fillers to help the eyelid region is an option when dealing with an expert, knowledgeable, and skilled injector, most cases would be best-served by having an expert in eyelid rejuvenation assess the situation and, if indicated, consider a more definitive surgical option to correct the problem with surgery rather than trying to hide the problem from others with fillers.
I just had restylane injections under my eyes yesterday, the left eye turned out perfect the right eye not so good, I have a bump on my cheek, looks like a goose egg.
I called my doctor, he said swelling was normal and to wait 48 hours and massage it down.. What should i do?? Stephanie, Dr. If its a hyaluronic acid such as Restylane or Juvederm or Belotero, it can be dissolved with an enzyme in the office. Otherwise Dr. Scheiner might be able to help.
Here's what I went through day-of. Spoiler alert: It didn't hurt a bit. Before injecting any fillers, Herrmann first marked my face with a pencil to label the designated areas. She also showed me the very small amount of Restylane she would use; it put me at ease knowing the final look would be subtle and natural.
Herrmann rubbed numbing cream into the marked areas and waited a few minutes for it to work. As she went in with the needle, I could feel the area gradually begin to plump. While administering the filler, Herrmann used her finger to gently push the Restylane into place under the skin. This didn't hurt at all.
I was seriously shocked. The whole process was very quick and took less than five minutes. After the injections, Herrmann handed me an ice pack and sent me on my way. The two needle-entry points are barely visible. But the best part? Zero bruising and no post-procedural pain. Herrmann determined that Restylane was the treatment of choice for my rutty under-eye area, a popular hyaluronic acid -based filler.
Some are very soft and fine like Restylane Refyne and are excellent for filling fine lines and under-eye hollows, while stiffer, thicker formulations such as Restylane Lyft , are better for lifting cheeks and filling deeper folds. In a word, says Herrmann, yes. Your body naturally breaks down HA fillers just as it breaks down native HA, so it gradually disappears in a very natural way. You've probably been hearing a lot of talk about under-eye fillers these days.
Some of it is undoubtedly true, while other stuff aka these four common myths is just a load of malarkey. Here, Herrmann helps separate truth from fallacy. Myth 1: You must use a lot to get results. Fact: "Subtle improvements are more natural," says Herrmann, who takes a less-is-more approach. Myth 2: All HA fillers are the same. Fact: Herrmann points out that since "the individual properties of each HA filler make it useful for very specific purposes, results appear most natural.
She recommends seeking treatment with a board-certified dermatologist who knows the ins and outs of cutting-edge under-eye fillers. Myth 3: Fillers smooth areas around the eyes, too. Fact: If you're hoping to kill several birds with one stone, think again.
Crow's feet, and frown lines including those pesky "elevens" , aren't exactly right for fillers. Myth 4: Fillers just fill wrinkles and volume loss.
Fact: Nope. Three weeks after treatment, I took this makeup-free selfie that shows how my fillers have settled. I look very natural. So natural, in fact, that no one even noticed I had gotten fillers.
