Fillers around the eyes can cause visible lumps

Brooke R. Seckel, MD answers: Which filler is best for under eyes (tear trough)?

i had restylane under my eyes and mid section of face to give volume i love it but after reading all the posts i am afraid its not going to last as long. can anyone make a suggestion on other fillers for those areas.

You are very fortunate that you have had good results with Restylane around the eyes into the tear trough. Since you have had good luck with Restylane, stick with it and the doctor who gave you a good result.

Longer lasting fillers are more likely to result in lumps and of course take longer to go away.

I have seen many, many patients who complain of visible lumps especially when fillers are injected into the dark cirlce under the lower eyelid, which is above the tear trough. actaul tear trough injections are less likely to cause this problem
