Stay away from Radiesse under eye bags

Hassan Galadari, MD answers: Radiesse for under eye bags?

I'm considering getting radiesse under my eyes to help with the Bags.....what is your opinion. I've been reading a lot of reviews that don't suggest it under the eyes. I'm 27 so my skin should not be to thin. I'm considering getting radiesse under my eyes to help with the Bags. What is your opinion?

Radiesse and any other highly viscous dermal filler such as Perlane should be avoided in the eye area. Sculptra should also be avoided in that area too, because of the possible development of nodules. Restylane, Juvederm and even the collagen based fillers can be injected safely. The latter is better because the white color inhibits the development of the Tyndall effect, where the area appears blue, which is seen with the HA fillers.
