Under-eye hollows can make you look tired, stressed, or older than you feel, even when you’re well-rested. These sunken areas beneath the eyes often develop with age as facial volume decreases, creating shadows that can be difficult to hide with skincare products alone. Fortunately, under-eye fillers can restore lost volume and create a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
At UMass Memorial Health in Worcester, MA, our facial rejuvenation treatments are performed by highly respected plastic surgeons, including Dr. Mustafa Akyurek, Dr. Janice Lalikos, Dr. Douglas Rothkopf, and Dr. Joyce McIntyre. With decades of combined experience in cosmetic surgery and facial aesthetics, our team helps individuals achieve natural-looking results through advanced facial filler treatments.
What Causes Under-Eye Hollows?
Several factors can contribute to hollow-looking under-eyes, including:
- Natural aging and volume loss
- Genetics
- Weight loss
- Thinning skin around the eyes
- Changes in facial structure over time
As volume diminishes, the tear trough can appear deeper, creating shadows that contribute to a fatigued appearance.
How Do Under-Eye Fillers Work?
Dermal fillers for under-eye hollows are designed to restore lost volume beneath the eyes, creating a smoother transition between the lower eyelid and upper cheek.
The treatment process typically involves:
- Consultation: Your provider examines the under-eye area and discusses your goals.
- Treatment Planning: The ideal filler and injection points are selected.
- Filler Injections: Small amounts of filler are placed in the tear trough area.
- Contour Enhancement: The filler is gently shaped for smooth, natural-looking results.
- Visible Improvement: Results are noticeable immediately after treatment.
- Final Results: The area continues to improve as minor swelling fades.
What Results Can You Expect?
When performed by an experienced provider, tear trough fillers can:
- Reduce the appearance of hollow under-eyes
- Minimize shadowing beneath the eyes
- Create a smoother lower eyelid contour
- Restore a more rested and youthful appearance
The goal is subtle enhancement that refreshes your overall look without appearing overdone.
Refresh Tired-Looking Eyes With Under-Eye Fillers
While under-eye fillers work well for many people, they are not the best solution for every concern. During a consultation, we evaluate your facial anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to determine the most appropriate treatment.
If under-eye hollows make you look tired or older than you feel, facial fillers may help restore a brighter, more refreshed appearance.
