Frequently Asked Questions
Why Do I Have Eye Bags?
Under-eye hollows result from a combination of aging, genetics, and lifestyle factors. As you age, the skin around your eyes becomes thinner and loses elasticity, leading to sagging and puffiness. Fat deposits may shift, creating bags under the eyes.
Genetic predisposition can make eye bags more pronounced, and lifestyle choices such as lack of sleep, stress, poor diet, and excessive alcohol consumption can worsen their appearance. Environmental factors like sun exposure and pollution can also contribute to the development of eye bags.
How Do Under Eye Fillers Work?
Under-eye fillers, typically composed of hyaluronic acid gel, work by replenishing the volume beneath the skin around the eyes. This smooths out hollows, reduces dark circles, and minimizes the appearance of bags. The procedure involves precise injections that target the tear trough area, effectively lifting and rejuvenating the under-eye region.
Am I a Good Candidate for Under Eye Fillers?
Dr. Schwarzburg explains that under-eye fillers are ideal for individuals who:
- Have noticeable hollows or dark circles under their eyes
- Want a non-surgical solution for under-eye rejuvenation
- Are looking for immediate, natural-looking results
- Have realistic expectations about the outcomes
When Should I Avoid Under Eye Fillers?
While under-eye fillers are a fantastic solution for many, there are certain situations where they might not be the best option. Under-eye fillers should be avoided if you have active skin infections or allergies to filler components. Additionally, if you experience severe fluid retention or muscle loosening in the under-eye area, or have malar bags or festoons, they are better treated with surgical procedures. If your goal is to address fine lines or skin hyperpigmentation, other treatments like Botox or laser therapy may be more appropriate.
How Do I Prepare for the Procedure?
Preparation steps include:
- Avoiding blood thinners (aspirin, NSAIDs) and alcohol for 3-5 days before treatment
- Scheduling the procedure at least a week before important events to allow any swelling to subside
- Taking Tylenol 30 minutes before the appointment to alleviate potential discomfort
What Is the Actual Process of Under Eye Fillers?
The process of tear trough fillers begins with a consultation where you discuss your goals with Dr. Schwarzburg and develop a customized treatment plan. Next, the preparation stage involves cleansing and marking the injection sites for precise injections. During the injection stage, Dr. Schwarzburg administers hyaluronic acid fillers using fine needles or cannulas. The filler is typically injected deep under the skin and onto the periosteum of the bone. Finally, you receive aftercare instructions to ensure optimal recovery and results.
How Long Does the Procedure Take?
The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes, including assessment and the actual injections. If more than one syringe is needed, it may extend by another 15-20 minutes.
What Is the Aftercare?
- Avoid touching or applying pressure to the treated area for the first 24 hours.
- Skip strenuous activities for 24 hours to minimize swelling and bruising.
- Use ice packs initially, then switch to warm compresses if needed.
- Apply arnica cream to speed up healing.
Is There Any Downtime?
Downtime is minimal, making it a convenient lunchtime procedure. Mild swelling and redness are common but typically subside within a few hours. Any minor bruising is easily concealed with makeup.
What Are Risks and Complications Associated With Under Eye Fillers?
Although fillers for eye bags are generally safe and effective, it’s important to be aware of potential risks and complications to ensure you make an informed decision.
One possible risk is the Tyndall effect, which is a bluish tint that appears when fillers are placed too close to the skin’s surface. This can be easily corrected with an injection of Hylenex.
Overfilling is another risk, which can lead to puffiness. This issue is easily addressed with hyaluronidase to dissolve the excess filler.
Granulomas or small nodules, while rare, can occur and are typically manageable with massages, filler dissolution, or steroid injections.
When Will I See the Results?
Results are visible immediately, with full effects apparent after the swelling subsides in about a week. Typically the swelling goes down by 20-30% within a few days.
How Long Do Results Last?
Results can last from 9 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler used, your lifestyle, and individual metabolism.
How Many Fillers Will I Need?
Determining the number of syringes for tear trough fillers varies per individual, factoring in the depth of hollows and desired outcomes. Dr. Schwarzburg employs a conservative approach and usually starts with 1 syringe followed by reassessment in 1-2 weeks.
Are Fillers for Dark Circles Safe?
Yes, under-eye fillers are safe, especially when performed by experienced practitioners like Dr. Schwarzburg, who has over 10 years of expertise in administering these treatments. The fillers are FDA-approved and made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, which further ensures their safety and compatibility.
Do Tear Trough Fillers Hurt?
Contrary to popular belief, filler injections to improve eye bags are well tolerated with minimal discomfort. Dr. Schwarzburg uses ultra-fine needles and with lidocaine added to fillers, it makes the process as pain-free as possible.
Patients often describe the sensation as a slight pinch and pressure in the treated area with a pain level of 1-2 on a scale of 10.
What Is the Cost of Under Eye Fillers?
The cost of under-eye fillers ranges from $900 to $2000 per syringe, depending on the complexity of the treatment and the expertise of the injector. At Skinly Aesthetics, the price reflects the high standards of care provided by Dr. Schwarzburg, who is renowned for his precision and skill in cosmetic treatments.
To make these advanced treatments more accessible, Skinly Aesthetics offers a 20% discount for new patients on their first under-eye filler treatment, highlighting our commitment to high-quality care and patient satisfaction.
What If I Don’t Like My Results?
If you’re not satisfied with your under-eye filler results, reversing them is straightforward. Dr. Schwarzburg uses hyaluronic acid fillers, which can be dissolved using the enzyme hyaluronidase. This painless procedure quickly undoes the treatment within 24 hours, providing peace of mind and flexibility for adjustments or reversals.
What Is the Best Under Eye Filler?
There is no universal best filler for everyone; the ideal choice depends on your unique facial anatomy and desired results. Different fillers offer various benefits tailored to address specific concerns. Here are the most common fillers used for this procedure:
- Restylane Silk: For fine lines and minimal volume loss
- Juvederm Volbella: For moderate tear troughs and volume loss
- Juvederm Voluma: For more prominent under-eye hollows
- RHA 2: For dynamic fillers that adapt to facial movements
What Age Should I Start Getting Under-Eye Fillers?
The decision to start under-eye fillers is based on personal aesthetic needs rather than age. Dr. Schwarzburg advises considering fillers when you notice persistent hollows or dark circles that make you look tired or older, even when well-rested.
If makeup and creams no longer mask these issues, it might be time for a more definitive solution. These signs indicate that under-eye fillers could effectively refresh and rejuvenate your appearance.
Will I Look Natural After Under-Eye Filler Injection?
Yes, you will look natural after under-eye filler injections when performed by an experienced doctor like Dr. Schwarzburg. The goal is to restore volume and reduce the appearance of hollows and dark circles, not to overfill or drastically alter your appearance. The key is subtlety, ensuring the improvements blend seamlessly with your overall facial aesthetics.
Should I Get Cheek Fillers and Under Eye Fillers at the Same Time?
Often, hollow under-eyes are partially due to volume loss in the cheeks. As we age, this loss becomes more pronounced, accentuating the under-eye hollows. Without the supporting “shelf” of the upper cheeks, under-eye fillers alone can result in puffiness and an unnatural appearance. Dr. Schwarzburg explains that addressing the under-eye hollows with cheek fillers is essential for achieving a balanced and youthful look. Combining cheek and under-eye fillers provides a more harmonious and natural enhancement.
What Other Procedures Complement Under Eye Fillers?
For a comprehensive rejuvenation of the under-eye area, several complementary procedures can enhance the effects of under-eye fillers:
- Botox Injections: Botox smooths out crow’s feet and fine lines around the eyes, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
- Chemical Peels: These treatments help to improve skin texture and tone, reducing hyperpigmentation and giving the skin a smoother, more even look.
- Fraxel Laser Treatments: Fraxel laser therapy targets deeper skin layers, stimulating collagen production, tightening the skin, and reducing hyperpigmentation for improved overall skin quality.
- Radiofrequency Microneedling: Combining microneedling with radiofrequency energy, this treatment enhances collagen and elastin production, effectively tightening the skin and reducing wrinkles.
- Pure Plasma Nitrogen Gas Resurfacing: This advanced procedure improves crepey skin by resurfacing and rejuvenating the delicate under-eye area, resulting in a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Will I Look Natural After Under-Eye Filler Injection?
Yes, under-eye filler treatments performed by an experienced doctor like Dr. Schwarzburg will look natural. The goal is to restore volume and reduce the appearance of hollows and dark circles without overfilling or drastically altering your appearance. Dr. Schwarzburg focuses on subtle enhancements that blend seamlessly with your overall facial aesthetics, ensuring you look refreshed and rejuvenated, not overdone.
