3 weeks after having Belotero injections the hollows under my eyes appear deeper and more noticeable. Should the doc fix it for free?

The doctor who injected me was supposed to be highly qualified and charged additional cost for his expertise in injecting. He now says I need more product. At this point I am over $1000 in and am not in the position to pay more. There are before pics that clearly show the hallows are worse now. Am I wrong to expect the doctor to fix this without me spending more money? What went wrong anyway? Why are the hollows worse than before?

Regarding the cost and "fixing" the work for free, that is an issue you have to solve with your injector. If you decide to seek out another injector, it would help to have your before and after photos. The best way to find a new injector is word of mouth, and the second best way is to view the before and after photos.

There is no way to determine what went wrong with the injections without actually seeing you or your pictures. If Belotero was injected. then there should be some fullness in those spots, although sometimes more product may be needed than what is originally thought. Once a syringe is injected, then a doctor may determine that more is needed. So, maybe you actually do need more unfortunately, and quite possibly those areas were more sunken that the Dr could tell from the surface of the skin.

My dermatologist injected Belotero around my mouth, but now my smile has changed and I have new wrinkles radiating from around my mouth like whiskers. Was this too much product in the corners of the mouth or in the folds? What should I do?
