Try Juvederm/Restylane for Tired Eyes

Tanveer Janjua, MD answers: Eyelid surgery or fillers first for tired-looking eyes?

I am a 43-year-old female that over the last 6 - 8 months have seen a noticeable change in my eyes. Puffiness, drooping eyelids and heavier lines under my eye, some days hollow-looking, other days puffy. I always look tired one way or another Should I look to an surgical eye lift or go with a more tame approach, such as Radiesse, Juvederm etc.? I look as if I aged 3-5 years in this period of time.

The tired eye look is usually from a deep tear trough. If you are not sure about surgery then buy some time by getting Juvederm/Restylane in the nasojugal groove (tear trough) and you will look better. However that is good for only six months. Surgery might be the long lasting solution.
