Is there any option naturally or is fillers my only option. Is something like retinol for example Roc helpful? I heard once they form they won't go away but I'm only 23. I tried to gain my weight back But I don't see any progress for the tear trough and they are just getting worse and worse. They make me look 10 years older. My nose isn't high with this happening it looks like I have a sunken X across between my eyes. I'm extremely depressed. Will weight gain fix this or is it forever?

Answer: Weight may or may not "fix" this. The under eye fillers are a very effective way of dealing with this issue. As your face changes over time, the hyaluronic acid fillers can easily be adjusted accordingly. Treatment typically last over a year so that many find that this is a much better option than trying to have a surgery. I personally prefer Restylane for this area. So-called smooth fillers like Belotero and Juvederm don't hold up well in this location. So who you go to and the choice of product makes a big difference in the outcome.

Answer: Under eye hollowing From the photo is appears that you've lost volume in the mid-face, which is very typical of patients with weight loss. Sculptra may be an excellent option for you since it is long lasting and creates volume by stimulating your own collagen. Fillers may be another good option and most surgeons stay away from fat injections these days because they are less predictable and are associated with more complications (besides there is nothing "natural' about taking fat from your abdomen and injecting it into your face). Most importantly, seek out an injection specialist, ideally and oculofacial plastic surgeon with extensive experience treating around the eye area and have a consultation to determine which options are best for you.best of luck!
