Juvederm for hollow upper eyelids

Daniel Reichner, MD answers: Injectable fillers for hollow upper eyelids?

I had Blepharoplasty done 4 years ago (28 years old) but my upper eyelids are so hollow I look like I'm 45! Can juvederm be used to fill out this area?

This is a major problem after upper blepharoplasty. Juvederm is an excellent choice for filling in this deformity. It is best to seek a board certified plastic surgeon who is comfortable with these injections. I recommend starting with small amounts of juvederm injected over multiple sessions. Micro fat grafting is also a great choice, however, over-injection errors with fat are not so easy to reverse.

A: Possible but very technical to inject upper eyelids with filler

Injection of any filler could be done for hollow upper lids (A frame defomity). It is very important to choose a plastic surgeon very comfortable with this technique.

I personally prefer fat as a filler.
