WORTH IT$700
I've had dark circles since I was in high school. It's just genetic. Concealer only covered the darkness, not the hollows of my eyes. I decided that fillers were a good choice for me to look less tired for work and in general. I found a dermatologist who could perform the injections. I had very little pain. Afterward, I was a little swollen and a little bruised. I went right back to work. I did one syringe, but I'm thinking of doing .5 syringe in 6 months for added fullness. Restylane lasts longer under your eyes compared to other areas. So you don't have to get it done often, which is great.

Too expensive

Since paying $700 I've realized that it is way more expensive than other places. I suggest calling around and going somewhere that's $500 or less, it seems hard to mess up. I would never pay this much again.

I'm surprised you stated that it seems "hard to mess up". Injecting fillers in the tear trough area is an advanced technique. There are many reviews on here from people who did not have an experienced injector and they've had very bad results.

If I saw data proving that there is a correlation between decreased cost and "mess ups" I would take your comment seriously. I later paid $300 at another office for 1 syringe and got great results. It's also correctable, so if something got "messed up" it wouldn't be permanent. Not worried.

Can you tell me where you went that was $300? I can't do it if it cost $700!!

Hello, thank you for sharing your experience. Could you please upload a photo how it looks now? I've heard that it requires frequent injections every year, and I wonder if this is efficient. Btw your results at the photo seem great and highlights your beautiful eyes !

Nobody likes to spend more money than they have to, but PLEASE believe me when I say that this is NOT the place to price shop. I know several people who had disappointing experiences with less than expert injectors.

I personally know several people who had results they weren't happy with at all when they price shopped rather than going with expertise. Take it for what it's worth, but please, PLEASE, y'all, do your own research!
