Quick answer
How is a sunken under-eye treated with filler?
A sunken under-eye is a deep hollow around the lower orbit, often from fat loss, genetics or ageing, that makes the eyes look set back and tired. Soft hyaluronic acid filler is layered along the bone with a cannula to rebuild the lost support.
Because deep hollows need more correction, the doctor may treat in two sessions a few weeks apart to keep the result natural and avoid puffiness. Supporting the cheek with cheek filler can also reduce how much is needed under the eye.

FAQ
Sunken under-eye filler questions
Why treat in stages?
Deep hollows can look puffy if filled all at once. Building gradually keeps the result smooth and natural.
Is a sunken under-eye the same as dark circles?
Not exactly. The hollow creates a shadow that looks like a dark circle, but true pigmentation needs different treatment.
Can boosters help too?
Yes. Skin boosters can improve thin, crepey skin over the area once the volume is restored.
What if I do not like the result?
Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase.
Do foreigners pay more?
No. International patients pay the same price as local patients at Umi Clinic.
