Under Eye Filler

Under-eye filler is a cosmetic treatment where injectable dermal fillers are used to address hollowness, dark circles, and fine lines under the eyes. The goal is to restore volume, smooth the skin, and reduce the appearance of tiredness or aging.

The most common fillers used for under-eye treatments are hyaluronic acid-based fillers (such as Restylane, Juvederm, or Belotero). Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin, and it helps to add volume and hydration while looking natural.

We use under-eye fillers to:

• Restore volume in hollow or sunken areas under the eyes (tear troughs).
• Smooth fine lines or wrinkles beneath the eyes.
• Reduce the appearance of dark circles by filling in the areas where volume loss has occurred.
• Improve the overall appearance of the under-eye area, making it look more rested and youthful.

We inject under-eye fillers into the hollow tear troughs using a fine needle or cannula. The filler helps to plump up the skin and improve volume loss, reducing shadows and making the area look smoother. Some fillers also help with skin hydration, giving the skin a more refreshed appearance.

Results typically last between 6 and 12 months, depending on individual factors such as your metabolism, lifestyle, and the type of filler used. During your consultation, we’ll provide more personalized information about what to expect.

Under-eye filler can help reduce the appearance of dark circles caused by volume loss or shadowing in the tear troughs. If pigmentation, genetics, or allergies cause dark circles, fillers won’t work as well. We’ll recommend other treatments instead.

Ideal candidates for under-eye fillers are individuals who have:

• Hollow or sunken tear troughs.
• Mild to moderate under-eye bags or wrinkles.
• Healthy skin and no significant underlying medical conditions. If you have severe under-eye puffiness or excessive skin laxity, a different treatment like surgery (blepharoplasty) might be more appropriate.

If pigmentation, genetics, or allergies cause your dark circles, fillers might not be the best option. We’ll suggest other treatments that suit you better.

When performed by a skilled injector, under-eye fillers should look natural and enhance your features without creating an unnatural appearance. The goal is to restore volume in a subtle way, not overfill the area. Excessive filler can lead to a puffy look, so it’s important to work with an experienced professional who understands the anatomy of the under-eye area.

No, under-eye filler is not permanent. It typically lasts anywhere from 9 to 12 months before the body gradually absorbs the filler. You may need touch-ups to maintain the results over time.
