Open your eyes to fillers and make persistent dark circles, hollows, and puffiness disappear!
Blepharoplasty refers to surgical interventions to awaken tired and aging eyes. However, you do not need to go under the knife to look as vibrant, healthy, and radiant as you feel. At Access Medspa Rejuvenate, board-certified nurse practitioner Dr. Asongtia Ntonghawah and our talented team in Lanham, Maryland, provide an array of nonsurgical options to refresh your appearance. This is key; we know you want to look like yourself, only like the best possible version of yourself. The results from our procedures celebrate and align with your one-of-a-kind beauty and spirit. And eye fillers are just one way that we can open up and renew this unmistakable and central feature of your face.
What are fillers?
Fillers are an injectable cosmetic treatment. They can be made with a variety of different ingredients; however, hyaluronic acid-based fillers are among the most popular. HA is a key structural component of the skin, known for its moisture retention and hydrating properties. When the right formulation and dosage are injected at the right locations on the face, we can achieve remarkable yet natural-looking enhancement. Depending on the filler used and your needs, these formulations may be injected to provide instant lift and to fill in lax or sunken areas, as well as to soften lines and wrinkles. Fillers also boost the overall quality of the skin.
How do fillers improve the appearance of my eyes?
Over time, your skin loses the components that provide structure and support. In addition to declining levels of HA, your skin gradually loses collagen and elastin. When this occurs, previously plump areas may appear sunken, while once tight, areas may appear sagging. The effects of gravity and the aging process can show up in the area underneath our eyes. We may notice dark circles that never look better, no matter what makeup products or techniques we use. This loss of HA, collagen, elastin, and fat can produce hollows under the eyes, which look persistently dark. You may look tired all of the time, even when you are well-rested. Fat distribution and elasticity changes also contribute to undereye bag development. Restoring volume or lifting the area can make those persistent dark circles, bags, and pronounced undereye troughs disappear.
What can I expect from treatment?
Injections can be completed in just minutes. Some products are formulated with a local anesthetic, or we can discuss options for your utmost comfort. Our skilled team of aestheticians will precisely inject just the right amount of filler for you into the undereye area. The process is very gentle. Unlike other injectable treatments, you can see an immediate improvement in volume and fullness. So, it’s a form of instant rejuvenation! Our fillers also fit effortlessly with your busy schedule and active lifestyle, as downtime and after-care needs are minimal.
Do eye fillers last forever?
No treatment lasts forever. Injections like fillers are temporary. Some fillers, such as those formulated with special ingredients and designed to be “biostimulators,” last longer than others. You may be able to go for six months to two years without needing a “touch-up.” Our team at Access Medspa Rejuvenate works with you to maximize the treatment results. A healthy lifestyle and a good, tailored skin care regimen can work wonders to get the most out of each treatment.
Our Medspa in Latham, MD, also offers the full range of fillers – from the Juvéderm® and Restylane® Collection of HA-based fillers to long-lasting biostimulators/collagen stimulators like Radiesse® and Sculptra®. Some fillers are more appropriate for the eye area than others. During a consultation, we will also consider other factors, such as the nature and severity of your concerns, and we can even explore filler alternatives to wake up tired, aging eyes.
