What Are Under-Eye Fillers?

Under-eye fillers are injectable gels, typically made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance in the body that retains moisture.

Purpose of under-eye fillers:

  • Smooth tear trough hollows

  • Reduce the appearance of dark circles

  • Restore lost volume under the eyes

  • Create a more refreshed, youthful look

Post-Treatment Care Tips

  • Avoid rubbing or massaging under-eye area for 24–48 hours

  • Apply ice packs to reduce swelling if needed

  • Avoid makeup for the first 12 hours

  • Protect skin with sunscreen to maintain results

  • Follow up with your practitioner for touch-ups or adjustments

Types of Under-Eye Fillers

  1. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers

    • Most commonly used and safe

    • Provides natural-looking results

    • Reversible with hyaluronidase if needed

  2. Collagen-Stimulating Fillers

    • Promote collagen production over time

    • Improve skin texture and elasticity under the eyes

  3. Customized or Combination Fillers

    • Tailored to individual under-eye anatomy

    • Can be combined with PRP or other rejuvenation treatments for optimal results

Who is an Ideal Candidate?

Under-eye fillers may be suitable if you:

  • Have visible hollows or tear troughs

  • Experience dark circles due to volume loss

  • Want refreshed, youthful-looking eyes without surgery

  • Are in good general health

  • Have realistic expectations

Note: Patients with active skin infections, severe eye conditions, or certain medical conditions may need to avoid fillers.

Under-Eye Filler Procedure Steps

    • Apply numbing cream to reduce discomfort

  3. Filler Injection

    • Gentle massage ensures even distribution and natural contour

  4. Post-Injection Check

    • Evaluate symmetry and smoothness

    • Minor adjustments made if necessary

  5. Aftercare Guidance

    • Avoid rubbing or pressing under-eye area for 24–48 hours

    • Apply ice packs to reduce swelling if needed

    • Avoid makeup and strenuous activities immediately after treatment

Possible Side Effects or Problems

Under-eye fillers are generally safe but may cause minor side effects:
