Can Fillers Camouflage Tyndall Effect from Juvederm?

What can be done really depends on what's causing your black eyes. If it is the Tyndall effect - that's from filler being placed too superficial and causes a blue tint.  I would be surprised if someone placed filler superficially under your eyes, since in this area, most physicians place filer deep.  If you have dark circles from a  shadow caused by not enough filler, you may need more filler.  I would recommend going back to your doctor and seeing if your... more
