How long does Restylane under the eyes last? Is the procedure done in one or two treatments for this area?
Answer: Is Restylane the right treatment for you ?? "if the only tool you have is a hammer, everything seems like a nail", is one of my favorite quotes. Today, there is a 2 pronged approach to treat facial aging and there are things that fillers and Botox do that surgery can not do, and visa versa. While Restylane can improve the bottom junction where baggy eyelids end and the cheek starts, you should discuss with your surgeon whether a lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a better , and more permanent choice. I had a blepharoplasty on my lower eyes when I was 32 years old and it was one of the best things I ever did, other than marry my wife. I'm now 58 and still think it looks good, so realize there is a point at which you may tire of ongoing injections. I do perform Restylane injections to the lower lid junction and have been happy with the results which typically last about one year. But remember, that you need to be evaluated by your physician to determine which treatment is best for you. One advantage of Restylane is that it can quickly be reversed with an injection of hyaluronidase, if for some reason you were dissatisfied with the result.

Answer: Restylane under the eyes Restylane under the eyes is a terrific procedure that instantly gives you the results you are looking for! Patients can expect the results of Restylane to last for about 9 months. The under eye area is incredibly delicate and should only be treated by an expert board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist who has a lot of experience performing the procedure.

Answer: Restylane for lower eyelid rejuvenation
Someone with significant aging of the lower eyelid is best treated with a surgical lower eyelid blepharoplasty which I perform often. However, for the patient, with minimal lower eyelid aging, Restylane injections to the tear trough or lower eyelid can do just the trick. I like to inject this hyaluronic acid gel here as it blends the lower eyelid/cheek junction well. I prefer to utilize a blunt microcannula to inject Restylane here as I can do it safely with no bruising. I may perform one or two treatments in the first one to two months and see results that last 6-12 months.

Answer: Treatment for the lower eyelid It depends on technique and your metabolism and if it is placed below or above the muscle. The range is from as little as four to six months and up to a year or more.

Answer: Excellent option for the right patient I can often get very nice results with Resylane injections underneath the eyes (usually placed in the tear troughs). I will sometimes combine it with either laser tightening of the lower eyelid skin or a chemical peel to get even a nicer result. This can usually be done in one treatment, and usually lasts a year or longer. This is an advanced injection technique so I would recommend going to someone in your area with experience in using Restylane in this manner. Ask to see their before and after photos and make sure they're comfortable with this, otherwise the results can be poor. Good luck! Dr. Salemy
