How Many Vials of Juvederm Are Typically Used for Both Eyes (lower Eye Bags)?

A filling agent can be used to fill in the depression sometimes seen between the lower lid and the cheek.  This is an attempt to blend the lid/cheek junction.  If one is going to use a filling agent in this area, one needs to be very careful and go to an experienced person.  Usually the filler is placed under both eyes using one syringe.  We can always come back an do a little more...

lower eyelid bags are either swelling of fluid or herniation of fat, neither of which are treated well with fillers. The fillers can absorb your water to puff it out and may make it look worse.  The groove between eyelid skin and the cheek, the line that goes diagonally from the corner of the eye/nose to the mid cheek, can be filled in with filler. I prefer Restylane for this area and usually not more than a half of a full syringe is needed per side but it does vary considerably for some patients.  A consultation would be needed for a physician to examine you and determine your needs. There are risks so make sure you see an experienced injector / physician to have filler injected in this off-label procedure.

I will often use one or two syringes of filler to fill in the lower eyelid cheek junction for most patients. Best of luck!

Thank you for the question. Most of the time one syringe of Juvederm will result in a satisfactory improvement in eye bags. Very rarely we use two. Good luck.

Juvederm is not used for lower eye bags -- rather it is injected into the tear trough (the hollow groove below the bagts) to try to camaflauge the bags a bit so that you have an overall smoother contour below the eyes.  Approximately 1 syringe of Juvederm is needed -- in the most severe cases, maybe up to 2 syringes will be needed to improve the problem.
