Injectable dermal fillers can smooth out fine lines and wrinkles plus revive a sunken appearance around the eyes. The thin skin beneath your eyes is susceptible to developing lines, taking on a hollow appearance, dark circles, and appearing puffy.
Your eyes are one of the first things that people notice about you. The appearance of your eyes can make you look older or tired. Rest and healthy habits such as avoiding smoking and alcohol and avoiding the sun all help your eyes look younger. However, sometimes even with the best of habits, genetics can still impact the appearance around your eye, such as the development of hollow areas.
Dermal fillers can fill in the hollow, sunken appearance around your eyes, but they will not reduce the appearance of dark circles unless the circles are the result of skin laxity. Our doctors will examine the area around your eyes to determine what cosmetic treatment will give you the best results that you seek.
Our team of doctors at Beleza Surgery in The Arboretum, Cedar Park, Round Rock, and Killeen TX will discuss your goals with you and then provide you with information about dermal fillers. Often a combination of fillers is used to achieve the best results.
Types of dermal fillers used to fill out sunken eyes include:
Hyaluronic acid (HA) based dermal fillers
JUVÉDERM® and Restylane® are both made up of hyaluronic acid, which provides a natural appearance. The gel-like substance is soft and will easily plump out sunken areas and smooth away wrinkles. HA fillers are extremely popular for use under the eyes.
RADIESSE®
RADIESSE is made from calcium spheres suspended in a gel base. It has a thicker consistency than HA fillers and provides immediate results upon injection. The calcium particles also work by stimulating collagen production to restore volume and smooth even deep lines around the eyes.
