I have gotten fillers in my cheekbones in the past year, but because of age, I am noticing increased loss of electricity, causing deeper pockets in my under eye, like U-shaped wells. I have dark purple discoloration under my eyes. Is there any treatment that would smooth out this area and increase the fat so the purple isn't as noticeable? Please and thank you.!

Answer: U-shaped wells under my eyes Discoloration under the eyes is typically caused by volume loss and can be corrected with filler injections of hyaluronic acid in an area called treat tough. Filler injections in the area are complicated and there should be consideration placed on skin tightening as the years go by with modalities like IPL and Lasers.

Answer: Dark purple discoloration under my eyes (photo) Hello Natalie, If you are ready for surgical correction then I would recommend an expert oculo-plastic surgeon to perform a fat transposition lower blepharoplasty where your lower orbital fat is relocated into the hollow undereye area. If you are not yet ready for surgery then I would treat you with EZ Gel prf (platelet rich fibrin). In either case it is most important that you choose an expert physician. Feel free to contact me to schedule either a virtual or in person consultation to address any further questions or concerns. Good luck and be well. Michael A. Persky, MD
