Question 1

is it safe to have hyaluronic acid fillers  such as restylane/juvederm while on remicade?

Accepted Answer

: It is not absolutely contraindicated regarding the drug interaction.
However, I would advise you to discuss with rheumatologist who prescribes Remicade.

Question 2

which fillers last longer: restylane, (dermal fillers) juvederm, teosyal, esthelis, aquamid, or bio alcamid?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Aquamid. Not all these fillers are indicated for every area of the body. Some of them aren't FDA approved and I hope they never are - they're right out dangerous.

Question 3

best treatment for nasolabial folds/smile lines? juvederm, restylane (dermal fillers) or radiesse? how much do they cost? which lasts longest & has least side effects?

Accepted Answer

Similar: all are hyaluronic acid products. All last aproximately the same time about 8- 12 months. Reports claim Restylane (dermal fillers) lasts the shortest 6-8  months and Radiesse as long as 12 - 16 months but I have not seen such a big discrepancy in my practice. Costs aprox. 500 - 700 dollars for injection of a 1 cc syringe. Side effects are the same in these three products.

Question 4

restalyne put under eyes. 1 eye looks like i have bag.  there's a bulge.  doctor tried 4 times injecting 2 get it out. feel this is permanent. help!!

Accepted Answer

HAfiller/excess/eye: Only a very very experienced hyalurondiase injector can help to dissolve poor excess HA fillers. Especially in tear trough areas.  But this dissolver injection is very expensive and takes multiple sessions.

Question 5

i had restalyne under eyes.  they were hollow. now under 1 eye hv lump(looks like a bag) doc injected 2x remove it. still there .bag worse thn hollow?

Accepted Answer

Restylane (dermal fillers): dna renSounds like the restylane (dermal fillers) is visible through the skin. Sometimes injection of hyaluronidase (which is an enzyme that removes hyaluronidate) can help.
Even though you may have had an undesired effect, the product is temporary and will eventually go away.
Massaging can help, but please do it under the direction of a board certified plastic surgeon.
In the future, ask for Restylane (dermal fillers) Silk.

Question 6

had restalyne under eyes. 1 has lump/or bag looks like. other eye good. is this result of a botched up injection? he is an eye plastic surgeon. thanks

Accepted Answer

Quite common: I assume at 76 years of age, you have excess skin under your eyelids.  Restylane, (dermal fillers) or other fillers injected under the eyes cannot improve redundant skin, the only thing that can is surgery.  The eyelid skin is not very forgiving and as such, everything shows.  Fortunately, with restylane (dermal fillers), (dermal fillers) your doctor can inject a medication that will dissolve the restylane (dermal fillers).   Good luck

Question 7

my eyes seem smaller after juvederm on march 30th, is it  due to swelling or permanent?no changes since 3-4 days, should i resolve with hyaluronidase?

Accepted Answer

Ask surgeon: Swelling can take several days to go down. Ice may help. A check up with the surgeon who injected can direct care in the best way. Nobody could give an accurate answer without seeing you in person.

Question 8

how effectively does juvederm work on laugh lines and bags under the eyes?

Accepted Answer

Not for all areas: Juvederm , I prefer juvederm ultra plus xc for the laugh lines because of increased filling and slightly longer duration .

However juvederm is not the best for filling tear troughs under the eyes, it absorbs a lot of water and unless really tiny doses are used may lead to bulges and swelling under the eye. 
I prefer Restylane (dermal fillers) for under the eye.

Question 9

can you tell me about juvederm injections for under the eyes?

Accepted Answer

Hyaluronic acid fill: Hyaluronic acid fillers can work well under the eyes, but should only be administered by a physician trained in aesthetic surgery, as incorrect placement can lead to lumpiness and irregularity. I generally use Restylane (dermal fillers) under the eyes.

Question 10

is it normal that juvederm gives you blue eye bags?i look like a panda bear now.and eyes look smaller too.is it due to overfilling eye troughs?i

Accepted Answer

Bruises: You could have swelling and bruising from juvederm injections which can take a couple weeks to go away.
