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

Question

Jonathan Kulbersh, MD · Answer

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,

Dr. Nima

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.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

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.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

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.
