Candidate For Restylane Under Eyes? (photo)

Dear doctors , am I a candidate for the treatment under eyes with restylane? The tear through is not deep , it is characterised by a small line and by dark halos (hyperpigmentation) .I'm afraid because if the doctor overfill me , restylane will cause swellings. Should restylane be injected deeply? Thanks for the answers

Candidate for Restylane under the eyes?

Looking at your photos, it appears you are a candidate for having Restylane treatment under the eyes. But an in-person exam would be necessary to tell for sure. I would recommend a consult with a board certified dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or facial plastic surgeon. They are all excellent choices. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

REstylane for eye hollows

The picture you provide would suggest that placement of Restylane would help the tear troughs and depression under your eye but a in person consultation would be best with the doctor in order to get the risks/benefits and alternative treatments such as autologous fat inectiions.

Restylane under eyes

I also think Restylane will help, but suspect you will have significant bruising from the procedure as there is almost no soft tissue between the skin and the underlying bone. That being said, I still think this treatment will give you the best results. Make sure you see a doctor who is experienced with this procedure.

Restylane to the Tear Trough

Restylane to the tear trough will help the issue you describe. One syringe of product can be used divided between the two eyes. Hyaluronidase can be used to degrade the product if too much is injected or if it is injected superficially. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Restylane and under eye treatment

From the photo you've posted, yes you could possibly benefit from filler. However, it's best to have a consult with a well-trained and reputable provider/injector for all of your treatment options and to determine your specific concerns regarding over or under treatment.

Tear Trough Candidate?

Hi Claudia. You are an excellent candidate for tear troughs. It's likely you will need 1 cc of Restylane for each eye. There is some swelling involved in the procedure and you may have puffiness or bruising as well for several days after the treatment. Ask about what technique will be used by your injector as "under the muscle" is preferred. Good luck.

Tear troughs are a great place for Restylane or Belotero from experienced injector

It looks like you have a fairly deep tear trough. Fillers are great to improve this area. I would make several recommendations: Go to someone that does this often. There are too many people with bad outcomes in this area because of poor injection technique Use only Restylane or Belotero. Other fillers will lead to nodules, or swelling. The injector should use blunt cannulas to minimize bruising and risk. Don't overfill. It's better to... more

I think your concerns are entirely appropriate.

The key is finding an injecting physician who knows what they are doing. I would look at websites of the doctor you plan on seeing. If you are not seeing alot of treatment results for the service you are thinking of having, perhaps you should look elsewhere. It is also important the doctor be very comfortable adjusting the treatment after the fact also. If the potential use of enzyme is not discussed in the initial consultation, you probably need to look elsewhere.... more
