I’m 29 & I’ve noticed minor hollowing. I would like to address my dark under eye circles & am also interested in augmenting my cheeks. Will I need fillers for under the eyes & then cheek augmentation or will one procedure address both?
Answer: Under eye darkening fix Under eye darkening may be caused by pigmentation, shadows (varies with lighting angles), or prominent blood vessels under thin skin. The treatments for these are individualized to suit each patient differently. Cheek implants and fillers may improve surface contours, but may not change pigmentation or blood vessel visibility. Seek evaluation by several qualified physicians to know all the pros and cons of any procedure before committing.

Answer: Cheek Implants Help Under-eye Darkening? Cheek Augmentation Can Lift Eye Trough Skin If you’re considering cheek implants and also want to improve your eye area, I’d suggest starting with a nonsurgical cheek augmentation with Voluma or Sculptra. Building up your cheeks might be just the lift you need to also address your under-eye area. Nonsurgical augmentation is a great way to try out a new look for a year or two without committing long-term. It’s easier to let the filler dissolve than to remove an implant, should you change your mind. If the lift from your cheeks isn’t enough to resolve your undereye darkening then I’d recommend a thin filler such as Belotero in that area. Consulting a board-certified dermatologist will help you make the right and most rejuvenating choice.

Answer: Cheek augmentation Hello beautyphileCheek implants are used to increase the projection of the cheekbones. They increase the fullness of areas of the cheek that may be receded or flat. Cheek implants add body and contour to cheeks that lack definition.

Answer: Improving Under Eye with Fillers (Belotero, Volbella, Restylane Silk), Fraxel, Microneedling/PRP No, this is unlikely to improve your under eye darkening. A combination approach will give the most improvement. Fillers, lasers, and microneedling/PRP can improve under the eyes. My patients try to get non surgical treatments to avoid surgery. We use PRP and stem cells there often. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for your short and long term goals. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Treating Dark Circles? Fillers or surgery No, this is unlikely to help your under eye hollows. Under eye circles can be permanently corrected with surgery or temporarily camouflaged with fillers (Restylane, Belotero, Volbella).There are great non-surgical options to fill in under eye depressions and hollowness. Using dermal fillers, a liquid eye-lift can be performed. A dermal filler such as Restylane would be placed in the cheek and tear trough to hide the depression or bag underneath your eye.
