When addressing hollow under-eye lines, there are several options you might consider to improve their appearance:

Dermal Fillers: Hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Restylane or Juvederm, can be used to add volume to the under-eye area, reducing the appearance of hollows and lines. This is a common and effective treatment for creating a smoother, more rested look.

Topical Treatments: Using eye creams that contain ingredients like retinol, peptides, or hyaluronic acid can help improve skin texture and hydration over time, though they may not provide as dramatic results as fillers.

Laser Treatments: Non-invasive laser treatments can stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture, which may help reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Microneedling: This procedure can also stimulate collagen production and improve the appearance of the skin under the eyes.

Lifestyle Adjustments: Ensuring adequate hydration, sleep, and a healthy diet can also contribute to the overall appearance of your skin.

It's important to consult with a qualified dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon to discuss these options and determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs and goals. They can provide personalized advice based on an in-person assessment.

Thank you for your inquiry! By your photos, you're a great candidate for filler to your tear trough to help fill the hollowness. We would love to meet with you in person. Schedule a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon like myself to help you reach your goals and create a plan.

The upper cheek regions are a major support for the under-eye areas, and when there is a volume deficit in the upper cheeks a woman can lose both the desirable oval, heart-shaped face, as well as suffer from the development of under-eye hollows and tear troughs. A nonsurgical filler cheek augmentation using a robust HA volumizing filler, therefore, can contour a more feminine, oval face and secondarily improve the under-eyes. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert. Best of luck.

Yes! Using HA fillers this hollowness can be improved.  Adding filler under the eye and to the cheek will make this area more harmonious with the rest of the face.  Be sure to see an experienced injector for your treatment.

This is a very common issue we see in clinic. One of the fastest and most reliable ways to address this concern is through the use of fillers. Typically, a very light weight hyaluronic acid filler is used in this area. An alternative to consider would be platelet rich fibrin gel. If these give you the desired results, they can be repeated, or you could consider fat grafting as a long-term solution.
