Dr. Windle guided me through this process with honesty and grace. He was honest to agree that the aging breakdown under my eyes caused an excessive tiredness look that couldn't be corrected by an overpriced eye cream or skin treatment. Appointments were scheduled to fit my schedule. I am light skinned and initial tx caused bruising and swelling. I did my procedure at end of week and swelling was completely resolved after weekend. Bruising resolved within a week. At my touch up I had no bruising and I understand it isn't guaranteed to even bruise. Dr. Windle is such a skilled doctor I NEVER worried about my outcomes as I had impeccable care. He and his team marked my face, laid me back, numbed, then sat me up to inject. He's conservative as I didn't need much Bellafill to produce these great improvements. I was in and out within 30 minutes without any pain. I cannot speak highly enough for this product and care by Dr. Windle and his team!

Took 10 yrs off easily. Remarkable for injections alone and the small amount you said he used. Almost tempted to fly to other coasts love your results so much. :)
Thank you. I am surprised by how fantastic the difference.
Isn't it dangerous to use a permanent filler around the eyes?

I had Bellafill in May and second touch up in...

I had Bellafill in May and second touch up in September through Dr. Windle. I was frustrated with sagging and bags under my eyes creating a very tired and aged look.

Very quick procedure with virtually no pain. Slight swelling and bridging after initial tx went away at 7 days. LOVE my outcome and experience. I have no hesitation in recommending this procedure through Dr. Windle. My only caution in this is to truly choose an expert and highly skilled doctor. Dr. Windle has a known reputation to fulfill my high standards and helped restore my eyes.

Really beautiful results! Thanks for posting!
Thank you. Im thrilled with them. Honestly I think there is slight puffiness under one eye as I'm two weeks out of touch up. So it will only continue to improve.

Wow, they look great, thank you for posting!

What made go with Bellefill versus other fillers?

I'm friends with people who used this 10-12 years ago and it heir results continue to be fantastic with no maintainence.
How many syringes did he use?
1.5 syringes. Crazy to understand how small that is. I used the rest of touch up syringe to touch up around smile.
Thank you for your reply. You have great results for such a small amount used.
Beautiul results! How did your Dt decide on Bellafill vs other fillers? The under eye area is so tricky!
I couldn't speak for my doc. However I chose Dr. Windle specifically for his expertise and his long history with this filler. There really wasn't discussion of other fillers based on the area and my desire for long term results.
I am glad you had a review with Dr. Windle. I had 6 syringes at another doctor in bellevue and was not very happy with the results. I could not see any improvement. I want to do more as i have read that the first syringes are to build collogen on the upper face, then you can start to work down lower (this where i really need it)
I'd encourage you consider checking in with Dr. Windle. He is truly honest and explains the reality so I had no mixed understanding. I understand each face and body is different. I really went in focused with some tiredness in my eyes and with incredibly minimal amount of product am thrilled with my outcome. Good luck.
Thank u for the tip
