Correcting under eye darkness/ circles

Blending your lid cheek junction and highlighting your cheek bones with Juvederm or a similar HA filler canyield terrific results. Combining it with a BBL therapy usually yields great improvement! All the best, Rian A. Maercks M.D.

Fillers under the eyes can help with dark eye bags

Fillers like Restylane, Perlane, or Radiesse may be placed under the eyes to smooth the transition from your eyes to your cheek area. If this transition is smooth and not so indented, you will have less shadowing and look less tired. These treatments are performed at 6 month intervals. see video

Positioning your face this away will make these circles at their worst.

Dear Phoebe There are surgical procedures that can address this area. Alternative, the dark circle can be filled with fillers.

In your area, I would recommend Dr. Robert Schwarcz who practices in Manhattan.
