Still love my under eye filler!
WORTH IT$2,400
It has been one year since I began getting under eye filler into my tear troughs. I got 3 syringes of Restylane in May/June 2018. I got 1 syringe in January 2019 and 1 syringe in July 2019. It seems I begin to notice a decrease in fullness every 6 months so I am trying to stay ahead of it decreasing back to my before pic look. In January 2019, I had one little bruise under one eye but I had no bruising at all this last time in July 2019, just a little swelling. Not painful at all due to the numbing cream. I still feel that this is the best treatment I have ever had. Dr. Rostami is awesome!

Tear Troughs No More with Restylane Classic!
Over the last 5 years I began noticing dark circles and deep creases under my eyes. I spent untold amounts of money on creams, devices, etc. I heard about how fillers improved the appearance of this area so I considered it for over a year. Once I just couldnt stand it anymore I decided to do it. I was scared because I had never had anything this invasive done. All the "filler gone wrong" reviews did nothing to help. I did my homework and found the perfect physician to do it. I had 1 syringe in each tear trough to start with. I had a big bruise under one eye but I always bruise especially with Restylane done on other areas of my face. After 3 weeks, I had another syringe split between both eyes. Another 3 weeks passed and I had half a syringe split between both eyes. I am constantly amazed at how good it looks. I wish I had done it sooner that is for sure. I had the filler done over a 2 month period from May - June 2018. It is now late October 2018 and it still looks good although I can see the start of the Restylane Classic wearing off. I will go back for a top off in early December so I dont start to look haggardly again. Out of all the pampering I constantly do, this the most satisfying treatment of all. I found Dr. Rostami, who is in Tysons Corner, VA, through all of the amazing positive online reviews regarding tear trough fillers. She is also an Oculo-facial plastic surgeon so she is an expert in the eye area.

thx! pdo threads are super small threads made of dissovable material that have barbs on each side of them. my doc used the 3 inch ones on my jawline. they r inserted thru a small incision near the ear. after insertion they are pulled back toward the insertion point and the skin is lifted. there r some good youtube videos demonstrating the procedure. mine took about 1 hour to do and after a couple of shots of lidicaine it is painless. i had 8 on each side. the results last about 8 months but u never really go back to square one. this is the 2nd time i have had them. the first was dec. 2017 to my lower face and then my neck in Oct. 2018. i like how they keep my face lifted up. i had no downtime and the pic that you were asking was taken a few hours after i had them done.cheers!
