Your eyes are the first thing others see, and dark circles, hollow eyes, bags under the eyes and wrinkles can make you look tired and less approachable.
Eye fillers (dermal fillers) are injectable gel-like solutions that add volume and elasticity to the skin. They can also boost collagen production, giving your face a youthful glow.
1. Restylane®
Restylane® is a filler containing hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural polysaccharide found in the body. This clear gel has a very soft, supple texture and is highly effective in reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
It can also add volume to the lips by smoothing out lip lines and enhancing their shape. It is a good choice for patients with nasolabial folds, which are vertical lines that run from the nose down to the corners of the mouth.
Another great benefit of HA-based dermal fillers is that they are not as likely to cause an allergic reaction. These products are often used in conjunction with a steroid cream, which helps reduce bruising and swelling around the injection site.
Using Restylane for eye rejuvenation can help reduce dark circles and diminish under eye hollows without any pain or downtime. It is a great alternative for patients who want to eliminate these areas but aren’t ready for surgical intervention.
2. Juvederm®
Juvederm® is a dermal filler made with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your body that helps bind to elastin and collagen, providing essential nutrients and elasticity to the skin. This allows Juvederm to create instant and natural-looking results that last for up to 9-18 months.
When injected into the face, Juvederm restores lost volume and improves fine lines and wrinkles, especially in the mouth area. It also adds moisture to the skin, giving it a smooth and youthful glow.
To reduce pain during the treatment, the Juvederm injections are infused with a small amount of lidocaine. The treatment is safe and effective for almost everyone.
Juvederm is one of the most common dermal fillers available on the market. It can be used to treat fine lines, wrinkles and facial contouring around the lips, eyes and cheeks.
3. Belotero Balance
Belotero Balance is an injectable that uses hyaluronic acid as an active ingredient to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. It has rheological properties designed for optimal injection, distribution, and tissue integration, so it is very effective at rebuilding volume in your skin tissue while reducing the appearance of lines.
Unlike other fillers that can be injected too superficially, Belotero Balance can disperse through the undereye area with light pressure. This makes it a perfect choice for treating tear trough deformities, which can cause under-eye bags and dark circles.
It’s also effective at smoothing moderate-to-severe etched-in lines and wrinkles at the corners of the mouth. The result is a subtle, natural-looking correction that leaves the skin looking healthy and youthful.
Belotero Balance can also be used to enhance the lips, giving them subtle volume and accentuating the vermilion border, or edge where the lip meets the skin. It’s a very popular and natural-looking option for patients who want to improve their lips.
4. Radiesse®
Radiesse® is a long-lasting filler that stimulates your body to produce new collagen. This creates immediate improvement, while restoring your more youthful appearance.
Its calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres are suspended in a water-based gel. This biocompatible material is similar to the minerals that are naturally found in your body.
In addition, it has a low risk of allergic reaction and is virtually painless to use. You can return to your regular routine immediately after treatment, and results may last up to a year.
RADIESSE volumizing filler is FDA-approved to reduce moderate-to-severe wrinkles and folds by augmenting the natural supply of collagen in your skin. It can also help restore volume and contour to your cheeks, chin, and jawline.
