I am a 36 year old female who has always suffered from hollow eyes. My hollow under eye area makes me look tired. I tried different creams for dark circles, but of course none of them change the shape of my under eye area. I had a recent consultation at a medical faciliy and was told that Radiesse would work great on my hollow eyes. I don't have any experience with fillers.

Diluted Radiesse tends to give a smoother result than the restylane/juvederm fillers for hollow eyes.

Tear trough fillers
If you have deep tear troughs and want some improvement, fillers can be a great treatment. However, Radiesse is not my first choice for this area. You may be better off with a hyaluronic acid.

Treatment of the tear trough
The margin of error for injections in this area is very small so hyaluronates like restylane and juvederm are usually better options.

If you do not like the radiesse you will have to wait much longer for it to go away and there is nothing you can inject to get rid of it.

Radiesse Bad Choice
Radiesse is not a good product to use around circular muscular structures such as the eyes or mouth. You should be sure the physician performing these injections is VERY experienced. Restylane is my choice in this area since it is less mobile. Plus, unsatisfactory results can be erased with hyaluronidase.

A well-performed Injectable Filler treatment works well to improve the appearance of lower eyelid hollowness.
I read your concern. If you would like to improve the appearance of your lower eyelid hollowness, you could consult several physicians experienced in the delicate art of filling this area. You should see many favorable photos before proceeding. My personal preference is to use Silikon-1000, an off-label filler, for permanent results.
