Which type of dermal filler delivers long lasting results while minimizing the appearance of dark circles?

Thank you for your question. The right filler for you should be selected based on how much volume is needed and depends on your specific case. There is a range of dermal filler options available for treating dark under-eye circles and creating a smooth transition from the lower eyelid and upper cheek area. Treating this area requires a great deal of skill and precision to achieve the best possible results. The use of a micro-cannula is recommended to minimize bruising and swelling while ensuring the smoothest outcome.

I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced expert injector. They will be able to assess your concern and determine which formula may be best for helping you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Hi @Magical160631. Restylane and Belotero work great for the tear trough. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

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.

When it comes to treating dark circles, dermal fillers can be a great option to plump up the area and smooth out any depressions. There are several types of dermal fillers available, each with their own unique properties and benefits.

One type of dermal filler that can deliver long-lasting results while minimizing the appearance of dark circles is a hyaluronic acid-based filler, such as Restylane or Juvederm. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body that helps to keep skin hydrated and firm.

These fillers are typically well-tolerated and can provide natural-looking results that can last up to a year or more. Additionally, they can be easily adjusted or dissolved if needed.

When choosing a filler, it's important to consult with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who can assess your individual needs and recommend the best treatment plan for you. They may also recommend other treatments in conjunction with fillers, such as skin tightening or laser therapy, to further improve the appearance of dark circles.

Best of luck !

Hi there! Thank you for your question. I love to use Juvederm Volbella for the under eyes. A good candidate for under eye filler must have a significant amount of volume loss. The filler placed can help with discoloration that is caused from the shadowing of volume loss by restoring volume back into the area. Typically Volbella will last around 9 months!

HA fillers such as Retstylane are often used to improve under eye contours and the appearance of dark circles. Other treatments such as Morpheus8 may be indicated. We always recommend using medical grade skin care products, such as Transform MD and wearing sunscreen every day. See an expert injector near you to learn more.
