Under Eye Filler Before and After
Under eye filler can improve the appearance of dark circles or hollowness under your eyes. This type of treatment is a non-invasive procedure that can restore a youthful glow and improve the look of your lower eyelids.
Under eye filler made from several different substances and is usually place deeper below the skin’s surface. The most common fillers made with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in the body.
While under eye fillers are relatively safe, the procedure can have some minor bruising and swelling. However, if you follow the aftercare instructions, you should have no trouble recovering from your treatment.
In addition to being safe, under eye fillers are also affordable. At Livio Med Spa, our under-eye filler treatments begin at $1599.99. Several factors determine the longevity of the result of your under-eye filler, including the type of filler used, the amount of filler, the placement of the filler, the speed of your metabolism, and your overall health.
What Are the Benefits of Under-Eye Filler?
Under-eye filler is not appropriate for every type of dark circle or eye bag. Pigmentation, visible blood vessels, skin laxity, and prominent fat pads may require a different treatment approach. Under-eye filler may help:
- Restore volume beneath the eyes
- Improve the appearance of tear trough hollows
- Reduce shadows caused by under-eye volume loss
- Improve the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek
- Create a less hollow appearance beneath the eyes
- Provide a nonsurgical option for addressing certain types of under-eye concerns
Juvederm Voluma Under Eye Filler
There are several under eye filler products to choose from. The best option depends on the shape of your face and the severity of the under-eye deficit. Some under eyes are shallower than others, so they require different fillers.
One of the most popular under eye fillers is Juvederm Voluma, specifically designed to help correct age-related volume loss and has shown to provide natural-looking results.
Another popular choice is Restylane Lyft, another hyaluronic acid filler.
Bruising may occur after any under eye filler treatment, so keeping ice on the injection site recommended. After a week, most swelling should subside.
You may need more than one Juvederm syringe. To get the most out of under eye filler treatment, it is vital to select a provider with experience with this type of procedure. Schedule a consultation with Livio and our providers can walk you through the treatment as well as go over options and answer any of your questions.
Restylane Lyft Under Eye Filler
Restylane Lyft provides a smooth, natural-looking result when applied to the area around your cheeks and your eyes. You can expect to see the effects of this treatment immediately after the injection.
Restylane Lyft may also use to treat marionette lines and facial wrinkles, as well as add volume to the cheeks and jawline.
Depending on the area treated, the effects of this procedure can last between 9 and 12 months. The duration of the effects of this treatment depends on how quickly the body metabolizes the filler, and some people will metabolize filler faster than others.
After the treatment, you may experience swelling in the area. To alleviate this, you can apply an ice pack, which helps reduce swelling and speed up the healing process.
Afterward, your provider may recommend a series of follow-up treatments to help maintain your new look.
Who is a Candidate for Under-Eye Filler?
Under-eye filler may be appropriate for adults with visible hollowness or volume loss beneath the eyes who want to improve the appearance of tear troughs without surgery. During your consultation, your provider evaluates the structure of the under-eye area and determines whether dermal filler is appropriate for your concerns.
You may be a candidate if you have:
- Hollowing beneath the eyes
- Tear trough shadows
- Volume loss in the lower eyelid area
- A shadowed transition between the lower eyelid and cheek
- Realistic expectations for what dermal filler can address
Patients with prominent under-eye bags or significant fat pads may not be ideal candidates for filler because adding volume can make the area appear fuller. Other treatments may be more appropriate depending on the cause of the concern.

Recovery Time for Under Eye Filler
If you have dark circles under eyes, consider under eye fillers. These treatments are non-invasive and can minimize the appearance of dark circles.
During the treatment, your provider will apply an anesthetic onto the area ahead of time and then inject the chosen filler.
You should expect some bruising after an under eye filler treatment. This bruising usually dissipates in a few days, but it can take a couple of weeks to resolve fully. To minimize the effect, you can cover the area with makeup and apply ice. Additionally, avoid any blood thinning medication such as ibuprofen.
Under eye fillers are a good choice for people experiencing volume loss and looking to enhance their looks. While fillers are not appropriate for every problem, they can help you achieve a more youthful appearance.
Depending on your filler procedure, you can expect a recovery period of anywhere from one to two weeks. You should also follow the directions for aftercare.
FAQs About Under-Eye Dermal Fillers
Can under-eye filler treat dark circles?
Under-eye filler may improve dark circles caused partly by hollowness and shadows beneath the eyes. It does not treat every cause of dark circles, including pigmentation or visible blood vessels.
Can filler get rid of under-eye bags?
Not necessarily. Under-eye filler may be appropriate for hollowness but may not be the best treatment for prominent fat pads or true under-eye bags.
Can dermal fillers fix sunken eyes?
Under-eye filler may improve the appearance of certain types of sunken or hollow areas beneath the eyes caused by volume loss. Treatment is not appropriate for every cause of a sunken appearance, so your provider must first evaluate the area and determine whether dermal filler is suitable.
What is tear trough filler?
Tear trough filler is a type of dermal filler treatment used to address hollowness along the depression that extends from the inner corner of the lower eyelid toward the cheek. This hollow can create shadows beneath the eyes. Treatment is planned according to your facial anatomy and the degree of volume loss present.
Is under-eye filler painful?
A topical numbing agent may be used before treatment to improve comfort. You may feel pressure, pinching, or brief sensations during the injections.
How long does under-eye filler last?
The longevity of under-eye filler varies based on the specific product used, the amount injected, individual metabolism, and other factors.
When will I see results from under-eye filler?
Some improvement may be visible immediately after treatment. Swelling can temporarily affect the appearance of the treated area, and the final result develops as the area settles.
