Plastic Surgeon Dr. Dean Kane of Baltimore Answers Question Regarding Restylane Lyft

Q. I recently (two weeks ago) had Restylane Lyft injected into my temples. At the end of a week I noticed nodules appearing more on my left side. The injector kept massaging it in. When the swelling went down I noticed some nodules going into the sides of my eyes. When I told her, she said the bumps are there because she didn’t have enough. Previously, I had voluma put there by a board certified plastic surgeon. It was always smooth. I am so distressed by this! What can I do? A. There are many considerations in face and body enhancements.

• ​Surgical, minimally invasive and non-invasive options
• ​Board Certified Physician
• ​Physician Specialty
• ​Talent, Skill, Experience
• Physician’s armamentarium of options
• ​Physician availability
• ​Cost and recovery
• ​Risk, Limitations and Complications versus Benefits
• ​And then, type of injectables including fillers, Botox etc.

​The list seems endless yet proper consultation and education would provide a better choice in achieving the results you desire. ​ ​My recommendations for this problem are to re-visit you Temple Lyft injector and use hyaluronidase to dissolve the nodules and / or re-consult with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and review the options for temporal hollow volume enhancement. ​ ​Good luck with this!
