Page 9 | To think my under eye filler looks awful?

It’s been 2 weeks since I had it, all I can see is a line of filler??

I wouldn't actually assume that was bad filler, I'd think it was extreme bags... so on that grounds definitely room to complain if it doesn't settle

Extreme bags …. Bit dramatic

Under eye filler is a bad idea for the reasons you have discovered. I would choose blepheroplasty instead any day and I’m not into surgery.

There’s a piece on YT by a US plastic surgeon about why he stopped using filler under the eyes and what he found in patients who have had it done. Really recommend you watch it.

Edited

Just to say I’m very researched on the topic and I’ve even had a blepharoplasty in 2022. Fillers and bleph treat different issues.

In my experience under eye filler is never satisfactory. It is injected along the eye socket when actually people who are having it to fill hollows, need it higher up, towards the eye. For obvious reasons, practitioners won’t inject in that area. Hence the unsatisfactory result.
Ive had it and didn’t like it. Have since had a fat transfer in that area (done by plastic surgeon) which is better but still not great. Don’t think there’s any great way to solve hollow eyes unfortunately.

A friend of mine who administers filler injections always tells clients she won’t do under eyes as it tends to migrate more than any other area. It looks like what she described to me when I asked what she meant.

Did you put eye drops?

You can definitely get it dissolved. I’ve never had it done but heard it’s quite painful.

No more painful than having it filled!

Agree with these ALWAYS have cheek filler when having tear troughs filled. Even just a small amount

Well I did ask this as I did my research and spoke about it at my consultation but someone else did the treatment who I was promised was just as good.

That doesn't look good sorry @burberrygodess Is there any way to get it removed? Sorry to sound thick, I have never had fillers/have no experience with them. Could you get it removed, and then get it put back in (but with a better result) ?

Yeah I have the exact same line/ridge with mine, been here for 4 years now 😭 was hoping it would go away

Did you ever think of getting it dissolved?

Did you have midface filler at the same time? My Doctor said it's sometimes needed as scaffolding for the under eye filler (not the words she used but you get the idea).

Filler always look terrible.

@SereneFish

no, it doesn’t.

Findingmypurposeinlife · 14/01/2025 21:29

It still looks slightly bruised. I think you need to give it some more time. It's in a very sensitive area and swelling can take a few weeks to go down (depending on the individual)

Hi, I have under filler done every 18 months to 2 years. I have only once had a bump/ridge like you show. Went back to my practitioner and she dissolved a tiny amount and it went! It's really common to over fill under the eye.

EasternStandard · 14/01/2025 21:24

It does look like a raised ridge unfortunately, as if the filler is in the wrong place

Louise121806 · 14/01/2025 21:22

Under eyes are really difficult to get right, I would only trust a medical professional with it. Worst case scenario get it dissolved (only meds can legally dissolve) and get it redone. Insist on a refund.

It maybe needs more time to settle. It does look like a "bump" but you look like you have a very slim face which is maybe causing it to show more. I wouldn't look at you and say "she had filler" though.

😂 I’m definitely overweight - but I strangely have quite defined cheekbones.

Is this person a medical professional? I.e dr / nurse / dentist or are they an advance injection practitioner?

You can see a bit of a bump. It might settle. I he ring anything into your face is always a gamble. Like anything it can go wrong.
