The process can typically be done in about 20-30 minutes.

However, we recommend arriving your your appointment 30 minutes before to handle preparation and administrative check in.

There are various factors that can come into play when determining how long the results will last.

Fillers around the eye area generally last a bit longer than when used in other areas of the face.

Some people that have received eye fillers similar to this have reported the results lasting as long as 1-2 years.

However, this should probably be considered a “best case” scenario that isn’t typical.

We generally like to recommend that patients come in 6-8 months after their treatment for an assessment to ensure the results are still living up to their expectations and to discuss if an additional treatment might be needed and how it may impact their results.

The risks associated with this procedure are similar to those of other eye filler treatments. The most common side effects are slight soreness, redness and bruising at the injection site. Other side effects such as swelling can occur – major swelling typically lasts less than 4 days and minor residual swelling can last 2-3 weeks. There are additional side effects that can come up with facial injections – be sure to come in for a free consultation where we can explain all of these to you.

It’s hard to make a blanket statement as to whether this type of procedure is right for you or not. Beyond the standard restrictions and exclusions of people who should not get fillers as defined by the FDA and medical professionals, the decision really comes down to what you want to accomplish aesthetically. If you’re someone that feels you would benefit aesthetically from a more define eye and brow shape you may be a candidate. If you’re still unsure we recommend coming in for a free consultation to discuss your options. Or if you’ve decided to get this procedure you can order online.
