Eye lid exposure & hollowing - Fillers in the brow area - Dangerous?

November 27, 2015
Asked By:misterp in Los Angeles, CA

I got severe upper eye lid exposure and hollowing. I saw amazing results with dermal fillers injected into the brow area to cover the upper eyelids a bit. This is exactly what I want - how dangerous is it? Is it possible to turn blind? Lumps? Also, for the exposed under eye area (no orbital rim support) - I would want to get fillers as well. Same questions there - risks of blindness, nerve damage etc. there?
