Restylane for 19 Year Old?

Hi Twix. Your situation is unique in that the tear trough issue is not caused by age, but rather by genetics. It's just the shape of your face. You are a candidate for this procedure, but we prefer Restylane in the area to Juvederm. We typically use 1-2 cc and the procedure lasts 9-12 months. Good luck.

Filler for the tear trough

Restylane works fantastic for this area, and I prefer it over Juvederm. The Restylane will last 8-12 months in that area. From here, I would recommend contacting a physician who has a great deal of experience injecting filler. He or she will be able to best assess your needs during a consult and recommend the best treatment for you. Thanks and good luck!

Tear trough filler

Dear twix468, I also prefer Restylane in the tear trough because Juvederm can cause some unpredictable swelling that might make eye bags look worse We use an injector cannula that does not causing any bruising and minimal swelling, but if a needle is used, be prepared for the possibility of some bruising Your results would look fantastic Best regards, Nima Shemirani

Tear trough fillers do help diminish appearance of under eye circles

Injecting a filler such as Restylane to the tear troughs would help lift the eye and therefore hiding and shadows which cause a darker under eye circle. Typically touch-ups are needed every 6 months to 1 year or so. It depends on what you are happy with in your appearance.

Facial Fillers

Facial Fillers can certainly be utilized to improve tear troughs. My choice for filler in this region would be Restylane. This treatment is perfomred as an in office procedure with topical aneshetic and ice packs applied prior to the procedure. Restylane L also has licodaine (anesthetic) mixed in with the Restylane to further help with the patients comfort.

Lower eyelid filler in 19 year old

From the photo, you appear to be good candidate for lower eyelid tear trough hyaluronic acid gel filler injections (Restylane better than Juvederm for this area). This type of filler has even been used in pediatric population for other causes, so it is safe to use.

Treatment of Tear Trough Creases

Despite being only 19 years-old, it does appear that you have moderate tear trough creases. This is clearly related to your genetics and is not uncommon. These tear trough creases can be very nicely corrected with injectable fillers. Every physician has his/her preference of which filler is best in that area. I recommend you consult with a board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon experienced in treating that area.

Tear trough filler

It looks like you could benefit from filler in tear trough area. I prefer restylane to juvederm for this application. There may be some pigmentation that is contributing to the appearance of the hollow. Filler by itself will not correct this. Make sure the person who treats you is well-verse in treatment technique. It is a deep injection, not a superficial one.

19 year old Juvederm in tear troughs?

In my experience, Restylane injections work best for that area they tend to give a nice full and smooth appearance. Or fat injections are great alternative because they can last up to ten years! Hope this was helpful! Dr. Young

Juvederm vs Restyalne for tear troughs

Deep injections of a hyaluronic on the bony rim of the orbit would definitely be of benefit to you. In general the deeper bolus type of injection is better done with Restylane or Perlane as these products have a higher G-prime rating, meaning that they don't tend to move once placed in the right location. Deep placement lifts that entire depressed line and creates a more nature fullness than if the product is placed superficially. Superificial injections can cause the... more

Juvederm in tear troughs

You definitely are a good candidate for fillers here, as the tear trough area on you is based on genetics and not facial fat loss, which occurs in patients who are older than you. I would agree with the other postings on here that I would absolutely not recommend you get Juvederm here, but get Restylane. Because your tear trough area is already rather deep, I would think you would need a minimum of 2 syringes in this area. Seek an in-person consultation with a board-certified physician for... more

Tear trough filling

I agree with some of the other posts that Restylane is probably better than Juvederm in this area. There is less of a propensity for a bluish color (called a Tindall effect) from the Restylane than the Juvederm. I like Juvederm for other areas of the face, just not in this area where the overlying tissues are very thin.

Although you are only 19, I do think that your tear troughs need a filler, my choice is Restylane

Your case is fairly common, but not in your age group. I would treat your tear troughs with Restylane using the blunt cannulas to minimize swelling and bruising. I do not recommend Juvederm in this area. No surgery is recommended. See my video :) see video

At 19 yrs old, What can be done about tear troughs?

You look like a perfect candidate for an (HA) hyaluronic dermal filler such as Restylane or Belotero. I have used Juvederm in malar cheeks with good success but in thin skin areas such as tear troughs a softer product is better. You are too young to consider a surgical procedure, but a little volume would make a nice correction

Treatment of tear troughs in 19 year old

I agree that your photograph does not indicate that there are any surgical options for your lower eyelids at this time. Fillers can work well under the eyes to help fill in the hollow areas. My preference would be to use one of the hyaluronic acid fillers (Restylane, Juvederm, or Belotero).

Juvederm for tear troughs

Based on your photo, you really don't have other changes in the lower eyelid region, other than the tear trough, to necessitate surgery. I would go with a filler such as Juvederm. It's a tricky area to do with fillers so go to someone experienced in it (I'm partial to plastic surgeons) and err on the conservative side. You don't want any overfill. Be prepared for several days to a couple of weeks of swelling and bruising which doesn't look so good. Good luck! more

Tear trough

You are 19 years old. Stop fixating on little things like this. If the photo was taken in the morning it will look worse, so look at yourself in the afternoon and see if it is better. Try not to start getting injections this early in life.
