Belotero for Under Eye Creases, Mild Tear Trough Groove and Upper Cheek Volume?

As Restylane may possibly produce the Tyndall Effect, and Juverderm supposedly "moves" around frequently after injections, and fat transfers may or may not take, as well as leave lumps (especially on thinner faces). --- Has early usage of Belotero, under the eyes and in mid face volume, (described also as creating a more youthful lower lid/cheek junction) shown significant success? Apparently, the formula now available in the US is "clear" and described as quite malleable. It sounds good...
