What Causes Water Retention Under Eyes After Having Juvederm?

default
Posted on Mon, 22 Jun 2015
Question: I had Radience and Juviderm placed in cheeks and under eyes and I noticed the next day that I had bags of liquid under my eyes. I waited for almost two months using aloe and massaging the area thinking it would go down,it didn't. I went back to the Dermatologist and she said " my you have thin skin", well we all know the area under the eye is very thin. She said the only thing that she could do was to give me photo facial shots under the eye, very painful. She said that would get rid of the redness but I would have to weight out the solution until it dissolved. I read about Vitrase but have no idea now who would be skilled enough to do this injection. Can you assist? XXXXXXX

Brief Answer:
Dematologist or plastic surgeon

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for your query.

The effects of juviderm are reversible. They can be reversed with hyaluronidase or they come down on their own in a few months.

Yes you can get it reversed sooner. You need to visit a dermatologist or plastic surgeon in your area who can assist you. It does not really need special skills but the doctor must be willing to do it. Thus call up local dermatologists or better still plastic surgeon.

Hope it helps.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
