How Long Will Under Eye Filler Last? (photo)

Question

I had filler put under my eye and was instantly pleased with the results. A year and a half on and there appears to be slight bags appearing over the filler. When the filler goes will I be able to get fresh filler put in to correct this problem? Thanks.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

There are a variety of fillers that can be used under the eyes and different filler products may last different lengths of time.  I prefer to use Restylane under the eyes and find that it lasts there longer than in other parts of the face.  I have seen effects from Restylane under the eyes last for a year or a bit longer.  When the filler goes down, it is possible to replace it with more to regain the effect.

Thank you for your question. Filler is not designed to be a permanent fix - it typically lasts between six and eight months before you will need another treatment. Restylane is an excellent choice for the area under the eyes, as it is smoother and tends to last longer than other fillers. Make sure that you are getting filler treatments from an experienced injector - this will help to ensure that you receive optimal results. Best, Dr. Verbin

Filler generally lasts for 6-8 months, and can last longer in the tear trough area. When the filler disappears, new filler can be injected to obtain your desired result. Restylane is a great filler for the tear trough. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.

It is likely that the product is gone and you could benefit from more filling, if you are wishing to replace to volume loss. Restylane is my tear trough filler of choice. Best of luck.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Hi Ben, Fillers usually last 6-9 months once injected. You can certainly re-inject the area once your filler has dissolved. I recommend using Restylane for the tear troughs, this filler is a lot smoother to be applied under the eyes. Seek a reputable injector who can give you the result you wish to achieve.
