I am only 19, however, the area under my eyes is very hollow and the doctor said she would inject along the bone to fill the area. I am not too confident if perlane is the best option. Also, she said it would hurt so to avoid this she would inject adrenaline prior which would 'block' the area??? Could someone please tell me if this is the right way to go? Not too sure ...
Answer: Injection of filler under the eyes
My personal preference is to use Restylane under the eyes. The skin in this area is very thin on most patients and Restylane is the least likely product to be visible through the skin. Perlane is preferable for areas of the face with thicker skin, as the product is more cross-linked. The under eye injections are quite comfortable and typically patients do not require even topical numbing cream for this procedure.

Answer: Dark Circles/Eye Bags/Wrinkles - Fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella); Lasers (Fraxel/CO2); Renuvion; Microneedling/PRP; Peels At home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (MTS roller with anteage MD ampules) should be started now. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat will such as lower eyelid blepharoplasty with or without fat pad repositioning will be the best long term. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles without surgery. Non invasive less downtime options such as fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella), lasers (Moxi/Halo/Fraxel/CO2), Renuvion (J-Plasma), microneedling/PRP, stem cells and microneedling RF like Fractora PiXel8 or Morpheus can all help give some improvement. Accutite can often be used or stronger lasers like erbium or co2 spot treatment can tighten the skin and give very quick improvement in wrinkles and texture. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat might be the best solution long-term. I suggest you get a formal consultation to see what is best for you and your goals. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Perlane to under eye area
Any dermal filler will help provide volume to a "hollow" under eye area. I would recommend having a thorough assessment with a reputable provider for further education and information, and be sure you understand what is being presented and that your expectations are in line with theirs.

Answer: Perlane may not be best for under eye area Hi Pepper, We agree with some of the other practitioners that Perlane may not be the easiest product to work with for the under eye area. Our preference is Restylane. As for the "block", you may be speaking about a "dental block" which is a term used to numb the face. We do not find that this is necessary and use a "triple numbing" cream. We are a bit concerned that the choice of product and the suggestion of a dental block indicates that your practitioner is not that experienced with this area. You may want to ask around for someone more experienced.

Answer: Treatment for hollow eyes There are several approaches to treating under eye hollows often referred to as tear troughs. The first and most simplest approach is to inject a filler like restylane or juvederm. I prefer restylane there since it is slightly less visible in that area than juvederm. I will not bore you with the science here. Also, I would not recommend perlane since it is a much thicker molecule and significant pain and bruising may result as well as lumpiness due to the larger size of the molecule. Other options include fat injections and sometimes they can be permanent so I would start with the filler mentioned above. There are also surgical options which include transposing the fat that you already have under your eyes into that area and that procedure is permanent and can give a natural and smooth contour.
