How to improve puffiness under eyes without surgery

One of the most common questions that patients ask me has to do with improving "bags" under the eyes without surgery.

Restylane is a hyaluronic acid gel (HA) filler that is very effective at improving the lower eyelids in many patients.

In the under eye region, filler typically lasts approximately 18 months.

The above patients both underwent treatment with lower eyelid filler. The "after" photographs are taken immediately after the treatment.
