Why Don't Doctors Inject Restylane Above the Eyes?

Hi,
Restylane, Juvederm, and other products can successfully be injected into the brow above the upper eyelid, to reduce the hollowed appearance there. Of course, you need to know that using these products in that manner would be considered "off-label" use by the FDA. That said, I would advocate the use of fat transfer, as is my preference for most injectable procedures.

The family of hyaluronic acid products (Restylane, Juvederm, Captique, Hylaform, etc.) are used in an "off label" fashion (i.e.: not FDA approved) in many facial contouring areas. The one area which is FDA approved are the lines which run inferiorly and obliquely from the base of the nose to the outer corner of the mouth (nasolabial lines or folds).
An expert injector who is familiar with facial anatomy may be able to restore the fullness of the area below the outer part of your eyebrow by injecting minute quantities of filler. It is a tricky zone to ensure smooth distribution and not exacerbate your hollowness because, in my experience, no filler belongs in the eyelids themselves. I have had good success with this technique in providing a subtle eyebrow lift, as well as masquerading the roof of the eyesocket, which gets bony, as we age. Good luck.
