Under Eye Light Filler

Under Eye Light Filler

Problems under the eyes can occur when a person sleeps less or more than the body requires, when the body is overly fatigued, when alcohol and cigarettes are consumed, or when a poor diet is followed. The first signs of aging also manifest as sagging, hollow, or puffy under-eye areas. Additionally, certain health issues can negatively affect the appearance of the under-eye area. Some people may also experience these issues due to their genetic traits. One of the popular treatment methods in recent times, under-eye light filler, can help achieve a healthier and more aesthetic appearance.

However, under-eye light filler is not suitable for advanced aging deformities. It should be applied in the early stages of deformation, where the skin is not yet highly wrinkled, there is no relaxation in the muscle layer, puffiness is minimal, and there is no advanced volume loss.

What is Under-Eye Light Filler?

It is a medical procedure that improves the skin’s color, elasticity, firmness, and smoothness by increasing the hydration level deep within the skin tissues, thus allowing the skin to reflect light better.

Under-eye light filler injection helps improve the appearance of under-eye dark circles and discoloration, reduces the tired appearance, and addresses wrinkles, sagging, and hollows. It also corrects under-eye asymmetries. This method supports the volume deficiency in the under-eye area, leading to a fresher and more vibrant appearance.

In addition to treating under-eye bags and hollows, the hyaluronic acid in the filler content helps lighten the skin under the eyes, resulting in a brighter and more radiant look.

Which Areas are Treated with Light Filler?

Under-eye problems can make even younger individuals appear older and more tired. Under-eye light filler injections can help eliminate the discrepancy between the cheeks and the under-eye area. By aligning the hollows under the eyes with the cheeks, a necessary lift can be achieved around the under-eye area, resulting in a younger and more lively appearance.

Under-eye light filler is typically applied to the hollows between the eyes and the nose, as well as the hollows between the eyes and the cheekbones, which cause dark shadows. A filler with low water retention properties is used in the under-eye light filler injection. The full effect of the procedure is typically visible 1-2 weeks after treatment. In most cases, a single injection of 0.6-1 cc is sufficient for most patients. However, some patients may require additional injections.

Under-eye light filler injections can be applied to almost anyone between the ages of 18 and 65 who has problems with their under-eye area and is bothered by it. However, it is not suitable for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have uncontrolled diabetes, heart disease, blood clotting disorders, skin infections, vascular blockages, have previously had a stroke, or have allergies to the filler material used in the procedure.

What is the Content of Under-Eye Light Filler?

The substance used in under-eye light filler contains hyaluronic acid, which has a soft and fluid form. Hyaluronic acid is the most commonly used substance in both subcutaneous and intradermal fillers worldwide. The physical properties of hyaluronic acid, such as hardness, absorption rate, fluidity, and absorption time, vary depending on the chemical stages of the synthesis process. The hyaluronic acid used in under-eye light filler injections needs to be softer and more fluid. This is because the skin in the under-eye area is very thin. If a hard substance with a lump-forming effect is injected into this area, unwanted results such as visibility from the outside and noticeable irregularities may occur. Therefore, the material used in under-eye light filler injections is obtained using a different technological setup.

How is Under-Eye Light Filler Applied?

Before starting the procedure, the patient’s eye area is examined. The treatment plan is determined based on the individual’s skin tone and the degree of the problem. The under-eye light filler injection is performed using very fine needles, just like facial and lip filler injections. Initially, a low dose of local anesthesia is applied around the eyes. The anesthesia is allowed to take effect for a while, and the eye area is cleaned with a special tonic. This ensures the skin around the eyes is completely free from dirt and makeup. Small amounts of filler are injected into specific points in the eye area, following a determined route based on the patient’s needs. After completing the injections at all points, the eye area is wiped with a relaxing tonic. A medical cream with redness-reducing properties is applied. Cold compresses are then applied to the cotton placed on the eye area to soothe and relax the redness. The procedure is completed within approximately 20-25 minutes.

To achieve an effective result from under-eye light filler, higher volumes are required. As this can be a more complex process, it is important that the procedure is performed by an experienced specialist who has carried out this procedure many times. If the practitioner lacks sufficient expertise, 1 cc of filler may be distributed between both under-eye areas. Due to post-treatment swelling, this volume may seem sufficient at first, but when the swelling subsides in a few weeks, the desired effect may not be achieved. In higher volumes, the filler may accumulate in one area, causing lumps and visible irregularities. Therefore, the procedure should be applied not only to the hollow areas but to the entire anatomical unit layer by layer, and it should be distributed meticulously.

After the under-eye light filler procedure, the treated area should not be washed, and strenuous exercise should be avoided. Exposure to excessively hot environments like tanning beds, saunas, and steam rooms, as well as direct sun exposure, should be avoided. During the recovery process, plenty of water should be consumed, and alcohol and smoking should be avoided.

After the under-eye light filler injection, side effects such as swelling, redness, dizziness, and itching may occur, although rarely. In this case, the patient should contact the doctor.

How Long Does it Take to Lose Effect?

The duration of the effect of the under-eye light filler procedure is generally 9-12 months. Although the results are not permanent, this period may vary depending on individual factors such as skin structure and skin tone. Additionally, regular applications of the under-eye light filler procedure can extend the duration of its effects.

What Are the Risks of Light Filler?

Under-eye light filler injections are considered to have relatively low side effects and risks compared to other procedures. Any complications that arise are typically temporary or treatable. Although fine needles are used during filler injections, mild bleeding may occur in patients with sensitive skin. For this reason, very fine cannulas should be used during the under-eye light filler procedure.

The material used for under-eye light filler contains hyaluronic acid, which is a substance naturally present in the body. Most of the materials used in filler injections do not require allergy testing. However, if the patient has a history of allergic reactions, unwanted allergic responses may occur if no test is performed. If redness or bruising occurs in the treated area, it will generally resolve on its own within 72 hours.
