Tear trough filler. How many ml would I need? (Photo)

Question

I’m wondering how much ml of filler i’d need to fix my awful dark circles! I look like a zombie and really want to fix this. How much ml would i need?

Benjamin Barankin, MD, FRCPC · Answer

I would suggest starting with 1 syringe (1ml) of filler in the under eyes (1/2ml per side). I would then suggest reassessing in 2-3 weeks, and at that point more could be added. I don't think yours is deep enough to warrant more, and certainly I wouldn't do more for a 1st timer. With fillers, especially in the tear trough, less is more, and you can always add more if you need to. More importantly, find an expert physician injector who has years of training and experience to treat such a delicate area to optimize results and minimize side effects.

When treating the undereyes/tear troughs, I prefer to use hyaluronic acid based fillers like Restylane. I start with 1 syringe (1 mL) and then add more at followup as needed.

Hi,Typically I use between 1-2 cc of restylane to treat the tear trough area. An in person exam is important; also, under eye filler is not always the best treatment to treat "dark circles." I recommend seeing an injection specialist to discuss your options.Best,Mehdi Sina, MD

With the correct product and technique you need very little product to treat the under eye area. Yours are mild and would only need 0.1-0.2ml each side. Some products only come in 1ml but do not compromise on the quality of the product just because the 0.5ml is not available. I choose Aliaxin SR which is a dedicated under eye dermal filler. Also ensure your practitioner uses a cannula technique.
