4 Questions About Undereye Dermal Fillers: Answered

undereye dermal fillers
Dermal fillers are becoming increasingly popular not only for FDA-approved uses but also for areas such as under your eyes. Although it’s true that dermal fillers for smile lines is a popular option, undereye dermal fillers are becoming a trending option. An undereye dermal filler can help reduce dark marks under your eyes if they are due to hollows or sunken sockets and not pigmentation.

 

To see which of the two is the cause of your darker circles, you can hold up a mirror and stand underneath overhead lighting; if the shadows disappear, the dark circles are caused by hollowed eye sockets, and dermal fillers can help.

 

  1. What Undereye Dermal Filler Is Most Suitable?
    There are several approved uses for dermal fillers. When you choose dermal fillers to reduce the appearance of hollow eyes, we recommend hyaluronic fillers. Firstly, they last longer in the under-eye area, and secondly, they can easily be dissolved by hyaluronidase should you not like the new appearance.Dermal fillers are most commonly used on the cheeks and forehead and last six to eight months.

 

  1. What Does an Undereye Dermal Filler Session Entail?
    Going for a filler session for the first time can be a bit daunting, especially when a needle will be so close to your eye. When you come to a professional medical center such as ours, you will receive only the best care and quality products.During your first undereye dermal filler session, we will run through the process and dos and don’ts with you after the undereye dermal filler procedure. The actual method is an injection into your tear duct that will feel like a brief sting, after which you will experience a fullness in your undereye area. The results will be immediate, but there will still be swelling that will go down after a day or two. The benefit of injecting them into the tear duct is that the area is not moved or used often, thus not absorbed by your body so quickly.

 

  1. Will There Be Downtime After the Procedure?
    There are expected side effects that we’ll discuss with you. You may experience swelling that usually subsides after 48 hours and some bruising around the injection area. You can use an ice pack on the site to help bring swelling down, but that is the extent of the effects you should experience. The procedure is minimally invasive, and no recovery period is needed to put your life on hold, as with surgical procedures. There are several steps you can take for a great dermal filler appointment. We will fill you in on those during your consultation.

 

  1. What Other Areas Can Benefit From Dermal Fillers?
    As we age, our skin loses elasticity, and it may show signs of aging in the form of hollowed eyes, fine lines on the face, forehead lines, lines around the mouth and chin and reduced volume in the lips. There are different kinds of dermal fillers better suited to the above. Except for your face, they can even be used to improve the appearance of acne scars.
