Under Eye Filler in Frederick

Under-eye filler, also called tear trough filler, uses hyaluronic acid-based gel to add volume beneath the lower eyelid. This smooths out hollows, reduces shadowing, and creates a more rested, refreshed appearance. 

Because hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body, it integrates well with existing tissue.

This treatment is most effective for under-eye hollowing, dark circles caused by shadowing, and mild volume loss along the tear trough. It can also soften the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek for a smoother, more youthful contour.

However, it is not a substitute for surgery in cases involving significant skin laxity or prominent fat pads.

The filler procedure typically takes 15 to 30 minutes. 

After applying a topical numbing cream, your provider carefully injects small amounts of filler using a fine needle or cannula. Most patients describe only mild pressure during the process.

According to a prospective study published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Global Open, tear trough treatment with hyaluronic acid filler showed high patient satisfaction and a very low complication rate when performed using proper technique.
