If you have Tyndall effect (from cheek filler) and try to add under eye filler to correct hollows, will this make it worse?

This is a great question. While fillers underneath the eyes shouldn’t have any effect on the Tyndall effect you’re already experiencing, I would recommend addressing the issue with your cheeks before seeking additional fillers. The Tyndall effect often means the filler was injected too shallowly, so you can typically have it dissolved with hyaluronidase. I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

Hi @misszoe. Adding dermal filler to the tear trough shouldn’t have any effect on the Tyndall effect you are already experiencing. The Tyndall effect occurs when filler is placed too superfically. That being said, I recommend I recommend dissolving your cheeks before receiving additional fillers.

Best of luck,

Tindle effect means that the filler was put in too shallow and it can easily be dissolved. I am not sure if you would want to add anything hydrophilic to under eyes until you get the first issue resolved. I really like Refyne, Beletero, and Vollure because they dont pull ass much water to them.

you can reverse the fillers with hyaluronidase and then reinject with other fillers that will not give you this effect. Please see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank your for sharing your question. Additional filler into the undereyes should not worsen any preexisting Tyndal effect. That said I would dissolve the tyndal filler and then redo what is required.

Hello and thank you for your question. I would advise you to correct the issue from the cheek filler before you get eye fillers. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

Under eye filler should not make the Tyndall effect from cheek filler appear worse. However you should consider having the current filler dissolved and then have the product reinjected deeper. See an expert injector for treatment.

You should not have the Tyndall effect from either "cheek" filler or that to correct hollows, as both should be injected deep. For under eye hollows, the filler should be injected on the bone. The filler should be on the bone in the malar cheek over the bone. Further out, it should be in the superficial fat compartment, still deep enough that you should not get a Tyndall effect. The one exception is where you are trying to correct skin lines or wrinkles and are injecting in the dermis. Even then, you can reduct the chance of having the effect by using the right filler. Make sure you are seeing an expert in use of fillers. Not everyone who claims to be is.
