Number of Juvederm Vials

Difficult to say.  1 syringe may do the trick or it may take more depending on how deep the leading edge of the lowere eylid bags are.  Have you consider lower eyelift to remove these bags?

Fillers for eyelid bags, Juvederm or Restylane vs. surgery

Lower eyelid bags are either swelling of fluid or herniation of fat, neither of which are treated well with fillers. The fillers can absorb your water to puff it out and may make it look worse. The groove between eyelid skin and the cheek, the line that goes diagonally from the corner of the eye/nose to the mid cheek, can be filled in with filler. I prefer Restylane for this area and usually not more than a half of a full syringe is needed per side but it does vary considerably for... more

Juvederm for Lower Eye Bags

Juvederm is not used for lower eye bags -- rather it is injected into the tear trough (the hollow groove below the bagts) to try to camaflauge the bags a bit so that you have an overall smoother contour below the eyes.  Approximately 1 syringe of Juvederm is needed -- in the most severe cases, maybe up to 2 syringes will be needed to improve the problem.

1-2 syringes of Juvederm™ for lower eye bags

Dermal fillers, such as Juvederm™, are priced per syringe. The number of syringes required to achieve a smoother surface beneath the eyes depends on each individual.  Generally, however, physicians accomplish the desired result with 1 syringe (used for both the right and left eye).   The use of 2 syringes  (1 per eye) is necessary if the problem extends into the cheek.

How Much Juvederm for Tear Troughs?

A filling agent can be used to fill in the depression sometimes seen between the lower lid and the cheek.  This is an attempt to blend the lid/cheek junction.  If one is going to use a filling agent in this area, one needs to be very careful and go to an experienced person.  Usually the filler is placed under both eyes using one syringe.  We can always come back an do a little more...

How Many Vials of Juvederm for Lower Lid Bags

Fillers are not used to treat lower eyelid bags, but depressions along the orbital rim. If bags are the problem, consider surgical excision. I use a lot of Juvederm but prefer to  Restylane in the lids because it is less likely to cause temporary edema (swelling) immediately after injection. I typically use 1 syringe for both lids.

Juvederm for under eyes

I will often use one or two syringes of filler to fill in the lower eyelid cheek junction for most patients.

Juvederm under the eyes

It's impossible to determine how much dermal filler a patient will need without an examination. Sometimes even after an adequate exam, due to the density of the patient's dermis, some patients require more dermal filler than a physician might expect. Personally, I am often surprised that everybody's skin responds to dermal filler in a unique way. Some people who require a large area of correction may sometimes require less volume than a patient that initially appears to need less. more

Fillers for under eye hollows

Fillers can be used to improve under eye hollows.  Restylane is an excellent filler for that.  It is deposited in very small amounts deep in the hollow, close to the bone, to lift the hollow and decrease the under eye circle. If there is an outpouching of fat, which causes bags, fillers are not quite as helpful.  That may need to be evaluated by an oculoplastic surgeon for correction. To fill the under eye hollows, I would start with a 0.4 ml syringe of Restylane... more

Filler for eye bags

If you really have eye bags caused by herniating fat in the lowereyelid compartments, I think surgery gives a much better and long acting result with lesser cost over your lifetime. I might state otherwise if I were to see pictures or see you in person.

How many syringes of filler around the eye

We rarely use more than one syringe, using a tiny needle (smaller than that provided with syringe) to prevent large amount of coming out. This area is the most challenging to fill, therefore, you are better off doing less and coming back for adjustments than ending up with too much filler.

One syringe

We prefer Restylane to Juvederm in this area, since Restylane is less likely to migrate. Tear trough  injections go very deep, and are placed in small increments, otherwise the results can be what you frequently  see on RealSelf, in the "what do I do now" category. One syringe is all that is required.

Usually One Is Enough

It is difficult to give you an exact answer without seeing you or at least seeing your photos but, in most individuals one syringe of Juvederm would suffice in filling the tear troughs under the lids. However, sometimes moving  the fat in the lower lid eye bag is a better solution ( and a longer lasting one).

Juvederm under eyes should be used in very small amounts.

Hi. 1) Juvederm Ultra or Restylane should be used in this very unforgiving area, not Juvederm Ultra Plus. 2)  The filler is placed deeply, under the muscle, and in tiny amounts. 3)  We usually use only one syringe, very occasionally two.
