Juvederm Ultra Plus Under Eyes?

Postby millykitty » Tue May 29, 2012 8:39 pm

Hi Dr Lam,
I am 31 and I have rather thin and fair skin with hereditary hollows under my eyes.
I recently went for a consult and the Dr. recommended Juvederm Ultra Plus Injected deeply under the muscle with a cannula. The Dr. would use 1 syringe in total (0.8ml).
Just wondering your thoughts on Juvederm Ultra Plus under the eyes?
Would the 0.8ml be considered a conservative amount as I would prefer to be undercorrected than overcorrected.
Thanks :)

the total amount sounds about right for your age. i personally prefer restylane under the eyes because it causes less boggy swelling and stays put better but juvederm is fine in the right hands too.
best,
