Is Belotero Balance safe to use in the tear trough?

I agree wit the other opinions, Belotero Balance is my favorite option for fillers in the tear trough area, as there is less swelling, less lumpiness, and it is eaiser to mold after the injections. The safety comes from the injector, who know if the patient is a good candidate, the way the injections are done, the amount of filler and the depth of the injections. Here the experience of the injector is very important. Get an evaluation from a Board Certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon with a lot of experience with the tear trough area treatment.

Hello and thank you for your question. Belotero is an excellent filler for the tear troughs, as it is a thin hyaluronic acid that also has less affinity to attract water than some other HA fillers. This allows for subtle volume correction without unwanted fullness. As with any cosmetic procedure, it is important to have a thorough consult with an experienced injector. Good luck to you. 

This is an area where cosmetic dermatologist have been placing Belotero. The reason being it is a thin hyaluronic acid that is moldable. It is great for chasing thin fine lines and the tear troughs. There are some studies that are looking into its use here now too.  I recommend that you see a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who has training in cosmetics. All the best.

Belotero is a Hyaluronic-Acid Based dermal filler, that uses a patented Cohesive Polydensi fied Matrix (CMP) technology that plumps up surrounding tissue. Though using Belotoro in the tear trough is considered off-label use, Providers may prefer using it for its unlikeliness to cause Tyndall effect which may leave a blue haze under the skin when inejected superficially.
As far as needle technique you want to verify your Physician is skilled in tear trough injections. Although rare, some reported adverse reactions to fillers include necrosis, blindness, and infection. Having an Expert injector may lower these risks.

A small amount of Belotero Balance can be used in the tear trough area.  This area should only be treated by an experienced cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon.

Belotero is one of the better options for filler in the tear trough. It is a thinner hyaluronic acid that is helpful in areas of thin skin like the lower eyelid, with less lumpiness than others and less chance for a bluish appearance you can get from a filler. The safety is dependent mostly on an injector who is highly experienced in treatment in the tear trough area and who is capable of managing any potential ophthalmic complications such as an oculoplastic surgeon. Hope this helps.

Belotero is a great filler for treating tear troughs under the eyes.  It is a hyaluronic acid filler and is thinner in consistency that most other fillers, which gives it a nice natural appearance.  You should note that this area can be notoriously prone to developing edema after the injections due to the intricate anatomy of the area and experience injecting this area is imperative for good results.

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can definitely treat undereye hollows with Belotero. Belotero is a dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid which is a natural moisturizer found in your body. You could also use Restylane to treat your tear troughs. For more information, I recommend getting a in person consultation from a board-certified dermatologist.

Belotero is very malleable and perfect for tear troughs. However, even Belotero can occasionally  obstruct the lymphatic drainage in the tear troughs and cause reversible edema under the orbits . 

Belotero and Volbella are also options that I often recommends for my patients. In other places you might see recommendations for Juvederm, which in fact is too thick for the delicate eye area. Juvederm can often leave patients with lumps in the under eye area or a bluish tint which is known as the “Tyndall effect.”
