What can I do about these dark lines and pronounced tear troughs?

Question

It really bothers me and I feel like they are really pronounced.

Hi and thank you for asking your question! Injecting filler in the tear trough area can change the look of face dramatically and help with the dark circles under the eyes. My favorite choice of filler for this area is Restylane or Belotero. Both of them are Hyaluronic acid fillers which is naturally present in our skin and they settle nicely and naturally under the eyes. I personally use flexible cannula technique for injection, which helps a lot with minimizing bruising and pain and the result looks very natural. I hope this helps and good luck!

Hi @camkon! Thank you for sharing your photo. You would be a great candidate for tear trough fillers. Restylane and Belotero work great.  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!

Hello, and thanks for your question and photo. I do think you're a great candidate for placement of a hyaluronic acid filler in your tear trough (i.e., under eye) area. In this area I prefer Restylane, but there are other fillers that work well in this location. This is one of my favorite procedures to perform, as patients instantly look more rested and younger. In order to determine the best treatment plan for you, I recommend an in-person consultation with an expert. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.
