Unlikely but ....: An allergic reaction to Restylane (dermal fillers) is very unlikely although possible. Should this occur, redness and swelling typically occurs until all injected material has been degraded and absorbed. This occurs in very few people (less than 1 in 50, 000).

Restylane (dermal fillers): there is a small percentage of the population that can react to restylane (dermal fillers) with an allergic type response. be sure to have your face evaluated by a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
