I need a permanent solution apart from fillers to eliminate the sunken look under my eyes. It is genetic as i had it all my life but age has also played a factor. I am 31 years old, female.
Answer: Under eye concerns If you are not interested in fillers, you may want to consider fat grafting for added volume. I recommend visiting with an experienced plastic surgeon for this procedure. Symmetry will be important, so you want to make sure you are confident in your surgeon.

Answer: Sinking feeling Thank you for your question and the pictures. It would be useful to include your cheek in the picture also to see the whole of your mid-face region. This would help me to advise you appropriately. Apart from fillers, which you have eluded to not wanting to have, the other options are to either have fat injected into the area or to have a cheek lift if there is sufficient descent of underling tissue. These can give very nice results and are permanent solutions. Fat transfer uses your own fat and so is safe. The fat is harvested through liposuction techniques and then a small amount is injected in a similar fashion to using hyaluronic acid filler. A cheek lift is carried out via a lower eyelid blepharoplasty incision and the underlying tissue is re-draped to reduce the hollowness/ sunken look and simultaneously lift the cheek. It would be helpful to see the cheek pictures also to determine if this is a solution for you. I hope this is helpful for you. Best wishes Kind regards Rohit Seth Plastic, reconstructive, aesthetic and hair transplant surgeon

Answer: Treatments for hollowness under eyes Although filler injection is a great treatment to correct under eye hollowness, it is not permanent. Tear trough implant is a permanent option but more invasive. See following website link. Personal consultation is needed to discuss options.

Answer: Improving Under Eye -- Fillers (Belotero, Volbella, Restylane Silk), Fraxel, Microneedling/PRP A combination approach will give the most improvement. Fillers, lasers, and microneedling/PRP can improve under the eyes. My patients try to get non surgical treatments to avoid surgery. We use PRP and stem cells there often. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for your short and long term goals. Best, Dr. Emer

The best permanent correction of the depression that you see underneath your eyelids is a procedure called a trans-conjunctival blepharoplasty with arcus marginalis release and composite fat grafting.
