Though only 27, I've had hereditary dark circles that have bothered me for years. No amount of concealer could completely cover them. After doing extensive research on possible options, I decided to give restylane injections a try. I am an extremely conservative, careful person when it comes to altering anything about my appearance, so I was very thorough with my research. I read that seeing a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist who is an experienced injector in the under-eye area is key to obtaining favorable results (not many who fit that criteria!!). So far, I am pleased with the outcome (no bruising!) and would recommend the procedure to those who feel self-conscious about their dark circles, as long as you're seeing a doctor who is very well-qualified to work on that area of your face. Be sure to ask for un-retouched photos of their before/after work, and ask them how many times they've done the procedure.
