Answer: Melasma Treatment--Best Treatment Is Clear + Brilliant / Fraxel 1927 / Aerolase w Microneedling/prp This is difficult to answer without pictures. For melasma, we currently use clear + brilliant with bleaching and microneedling/prp and getting amazing results. I suggest you see an expert. You will need lifelong treatment, sun protection, skin care. But these treatments can give you improvement and then help you maintain. Best , Dr. Emer.

Answer: Juvederm in the Tear Trough Juvederm is not recommend for the tear trough area because the skin is very thin. What you are probably experiencing is called the Tyndall Effect. This can happened when filler is placed superficially. I recommend having the filler dissolved with hyaluronidase, and replaced with Restylane. Please make sure you are seeing an expert injector.

Answer: Juvederm undereyes A picture of your face with a close up for under the eyes would be very helpful. Darkness afterwards can be due to hemosiderin deposition from a bruise or a Tyndall effect from too superficial placement of the product. For persistent bruising, I recommend rubbing Arnica into the area. If it is melasma as the 2nd doctor said (what is "bbl"?) there are several treatments than can help with that. I wold recommend you see a Board-certified dermatologist who also does Juvederm injections under the eyes.

Answer: Darkening around eyes after Juvederm, not melasma! This darkening is one of a couple things. It is either the hemosiderin associated with the bruising from the injection. When the blood mixes with the filler, the breakdown products become hard to clear. Laser treatment might help as well as topicals but this can take months to get better. It may also represent Tyndall effect. Either way, Juvederm is not the right product for this area and you might want to get it removed. See link. I only use Restylane here and only with cannulas to prevent bruising.
