Can filler be put it the top corner above the eye? (photo)

Question

There is a gap of space above the corner of my eye and wanted to know if filler was possible to be place in to fill in the space.

Filler can be put almost anywhere. Your photos are hard to expand.  I would start with any of the HA fillers that are not particularly dense.   You can always dissolve it if you don't like the way it looks.  Have a mirror in your hand when you are being injected and you can see the immediate results.

We have about 15 different products to fill the face. We also have fat and even PRP. Likely I think PRP or fat transfer is going to be the best bet that close to the eyes. It will help stimulate some collagen and fill with time. It can take a couple treatments to make the difference but is probably the safest approach to this area. Hope this helps,Best of luck,DrC

Personal consultation needed to determine if you would benefit from filler but generally filler can be injected in upper eyelids but not in medial canthus area with some exceptions.

Likely the answer is yes. The photos did not expand very well. Make sure to see a skilled and board-certified surgeon to examine you and perform this procedure. I wish you success!

Fillers can be used to fill in small areas of depression or hollowness around the eye but you need to be very careful due to the delicate nature of the eyelid anatomy. Eyelid skin is very thin and filler can be visible if not placed properly and in small amounts. The inner corners of the eyes have a natural hollow which is usually best left alone as this is a very vascular area and fillers can be very tricky in this region. The cannula technique is the safest around the eyes so you definitely want to consult with someone skilled in the cannula technique. My recommendation is to consult with an Oculoplastic Surgeon (Ophthalmologist who specializes in eyelid surgery) who has plenty of experience with fillers around the eyes using the cannula to discuss the pros and cons of this treatment.

Hi lilly, thanks for your question. Fillers can be placed just about anywhere. But just because you CAN, doesn't mean that you SHOULD. It is hard from the photo to tell exactly what you are concerned with. An in-person consultation and physical exam with a Plastic Surgeon would be helpful. That way, he/she will be able to go over with you exactly your aesthetic concerns, and make appropriate recommendations. From what I can see, you have a normal and aesthetically pleasing eye; but photos don't always show the whole picture! Best of luck to you.

Yes, filler can be placed here, although it appears you do not need very much.  I would be very conservative here.

Hyaluronic acid based fillers like Restylane are used to treat the eyebrows and upper eyelids. Based on the photo you have provided, I am not sure if you would benefit from this treatment. I recommend an in person consultation with a local aesthetic physician to discuss your cosmetic concerns.

Filler can be placed just about anywhere, but not to say that it's a good idea. Consult with your provider the desired outcome your seeking. Professionals will assess the desire, your current condition and the possible outcomes to achieve optimal results.

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

Fillers can be placed just about anywhere on the face and body, however it does not mean that injecting into the area you're implying is the right thing to do. If you look at all the individuals, that particular area always has a small ollow which is completely normal. Good luck from New York City
