Will filler before pregnancy help the bags under my eyes? (or make things worse?)

Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case it's never a good idea to plan for a change in your face you may see as it may not happen and when you are pregnant changing things become very difficult. It would be best to avoid treating preemptively. I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes

I appreciate your question. While it is difficult to predict the changes that your face will undergo during pregnancy, it could be helpful to get filler before you become pregnant. Tear trough filler adds subtle volume under the eyes to reduce bags and discoloration that often make us look more tired than we feel. I use a micro-cannula rather than a needle to treat this area, to ensure a smooth result and minimize bruising and swelling after treatment. I encourage you to schedule a consultation with an experienced, board-certified injector where you can discuss your concerns, plans, and goals. Your injector can help you determine whether this is a good time for filler. Keep in mind that we do not recommend a treatment like filler when you are pregnant, so be sure to time your treatment appropriately.

Hi, thanks for your question. It's hard to predict how your face might change during pregnancy, but if you are looking to get under eye fillers now in order to refresh your look, pregnancy in most cases won't make it look worse. My recommendation is to do what will make you feel good right now. That said, filler treatments are typically not recommended during pregnancy. I highly recommend that you speak to your provider about this and about any other concerns that you might have. They'll also be able to assess whether this is the right treatment for you.
