I've heard a lot of doctors don't want to do Bellafill under eyes. I think it's because they want you to keep coming back for more temporary fillers. Anyone had good experience with Bellafill under eyes?
Answer: Bellafil for tear trough The use of Bellafil, a permanent filler, if done properly achieves great results. It has to be performed with a cannula, not a needle, deep to the orbicularis muscle and in the right amount usually blending the cheeks into the lower eyelids. I have performed many cases over the last 10 years and have never seen any complication. If done poorly the results are disastrous and that is why it is not advocated by many surgeons. Ask to see before and after pictures from your chosen doctor to see the type of results he or she gets. Good luck

Answer: Is Bellafill good for under eye zone? Treating the under eye area will Bellafill is a common procedure in my practice. A highly experienced injector is required, in order to achieve good results. I inject in small quantities and directly on the bone. If injected too superficially, permanent lumps may result. In the 5+ years that I have been injecting Bellafill in this treatment area, I have not had any complications and the patients have been happy with the outcome.Hope this helps.Dr. Philip Solomon, Solomon Facial Plastic, Toronto, Canada

Answer: Is Bellafill good for under eye zone? Thank you for sharing your question. In small amounts Bellafill can be used in the lower eye but because the risks could involve 5 years worth of a mistake you will not find many injectors willing to place it. Hyaluronic acid fillers last a long time in the undereye area and are much safer, having a dissolving agent if placement is inappropriate. Hope this helps.

Answer: Improving Under Eye -- Fillers (Belotero, Volbella, Restylane Silk), Fraxel, Microneedling/PRP I suggest avoiding any permanent fillers in large quantities under the eyes unless they are done by a very meticulous surgeon using cannulas for injections. However, a combination approach will give the most improvement. Fillers (Belotero, Volbella, Restylane Silk), lasers, and microneedling/PRP can improve under the eyes. My patients try to get non surgical treatments to avoid surgery. We use PRP and stem cells there often. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for your short and long term goals. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Is Bellafill good for under eye area? I do not recommend the use of Bellafill under the eyes because it is possible to develop visible bumps or irregularities in this area with very thin skin. Because Bellafill gives a long term result, any problems that develop can also be long term. I find it is safer to use hyaluronic acid fillers under the eyes and frequently, these products last longer when injected under the eyes compared with other facial areas.
