How many syringes of Restylane is needed for under eye bags? (photo)

Thank you for your questions. The use of dermal fillers under the eye area is great to soften the appearance of bags as well as dark circles. In order to determine how many syringes of dermal filler needed to correct the concern, it would be best to have an in person consultation with a provider that specializes in this type of procedure. The area under the eye is very delicate and needs to be handled with care and precision. Most patients need about 1-2 syringes of dermal filler to achieve the desired result, but this could vary per individual. 

Thank you for sharing your question and photo. You are an excellent candidate for filler to restore lost volume to the under eyes. Based on your photo, I would recommend 2 syringes of a hyaluronic acid filler, such as Restylane, for your first treatment. I prefer Restylane in this area because it draws less water than other products, which in turn minimizes swelling. I also like to use the microcannula technique when treating the under eyes, which minimizes the risk of swelling and bruising commonly associated with injections in this area. For more information about under eye treatments, I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board-certified specialist who is experienced with the microcannula technique. 

 Thank you for sharing your question. Restylane is a great tool for hiding mild to moderate eyelid bags. From the looks of your photograph, you probably require one syringe. Make an appointment for consultation with an Oculoplastic Surgeon for detailed evaluation and discussion of appropriate treatment. Good luck,
