At 81 I began to rejuvenate my face. Starting with laser resurfacing needed to revise MOHS scar. Dysport to deep lines next. And this week a scraping of 10 seb ks. With age my eyes have begun to sink and circles darken. Brows have dropped as well. Not a look I like. Suggestions for eye rejuvenation?

Answer: What are preferred fillers for hollow temples as well as deep circles under eyes? The choice of what filler to use is fairly dependant on the area of concern, quality of the overlying skin, and longevity of the filler. Fillers are synthetic products that temporarily retore volume in our bodies natural fat pads (which lose that volume as we age or lose weight) and our body will naturally dissolve them over time. For temples, I tend to choose fillers that are thicker and longer lasting such as Voluma or Radiesse. It takes a decent amount of filler to restore volume in most temples as they are large fat pads. For the tear trough area under the eyes, I use a thinner filler that doesn't swell as much because the skin is quite thin and isn't very forgiving--typically a restylane product. For brow droop I typically perform a "chemical brow lift" using a very small dose of Botox or similar neuromodulator to lift the brows for 3-4 months (longevity of such products). Make sure to consult with board-certified plastic surgeons for best recommendations. Good luck!
