Hereditary Hollow Lower Lids and Thin Skin. Is Restylane the Best Treatment?

September 30, 2010

I am a white female. Almost 22 yrs old. I have always had hollow eyes, but over the past 3 years, they have gotten worse. I had 1cc of Radiesse injections into the tear troughs in March of 2010. The Radiesse didn't even last 3 months. I have heard Radiesse is not recommended for that area anyway. I am considering Restylane at the end of this month. Is that my best option?
