I've decided to get Restylane under my eyes for the genetic hollowness I've had all my life, but am wondering if it will look uneven when I smile? Any suggestions on doctors in the Los Angeles area who specialize in this type of treatment? I've heard having the right doctor makes a world of difference. Thanks!

Restylane for lower eyelid area

Many plastic surgeons are quite familiar with the use of Restylane in the periorbital area. Restylane has, in my opinion, become the filler of choice for the undereye region in patients who don't have a hypersensitivity to thicker hyaluronic acid products. Juvederm can produce edema in some patients in the under eye area. Hydrelle is also too thick for the area. Prevelle is wonderful for shorter acting results.

Be cautious injecting in this area

This can lead to uneveness, lumpiness and discoloration as the skin is very thin. Please be sure to see a physician experienced in injecting fillers before you have just any physician treat you.

While this works very nicely, I am not sure that based on your picture you need it

While this is a great procedure, it isn't always right for folks who are younger. I agree wholeheartedly with you that the right choice of doctors is imperative.
