Advanced techniques for using Restylane in the lower eyelids

Aesthet Surg J. 2007 Jan-Feb;27(1):90-2. doi: 10.1016/j.asj.2006.12.004.

Abstract

The author describes injecting hyaluronic acid (Restylane) in the lower eyelids. The key to the superficial injection technique he prefers, which he describes as "technically difficult," is to minimize the volume injected per pass. Furthermore, he discourages massage, which increases eyelid swelling, unless absolutely necessary.
