Brow bone and glabella implant/augmentation? Will fillers give projection?

Question

I have a pretty flat brow bone and glabella area. I want to use fillers or an implant to get deep set eyes and well, not have a flat looking face. will fillers give projection and is it ideal to use it in these regions?

Fillers can definitely be used around the brow and forehead to change the contour.  Fillers can be temporary or permanent.  If you are trying to change the convexity of the forehead, then you probably need bone filler placed through a small incision behind the hair line.  If you are just trying to augment the brow area, fillers such as Radiesse do a great job with simple in clinic injections.  See someone in your area with experience doing this kind of work to guide you through the process as a physical examination is critical to making a plan.

Fillers do a nice job of augmenting the brow and give a mild lift to many. Temporary such as Sculptra, Radiesse, Restylane or Jeuviderm can all be used. Fat transfer is a good option for a more permanent effect.
