What should you know about botox and filler under eyes?

Botox uses Botulinum Toxin Type A to reduce selected muscle movement. Near the outer eye, this may soften movement-related Crow's Feet. It is not designed to fill a hollow, remove a dark colour caused by pigment or blood vessels, or tighten loose skin.

Dermal Fillers may be considered for selected hollows or contour changes when loss of support contributes to a tired appearance. Under-eye tissue is thin and close to important structures, so filler can create swelling, lumps, colour changes, or other complications. Wrinkles and hollows may coexist, but one injection does not address every cause.

Choose a qualified medical injector with experience in periocular anatomy. During consultation, discuss allergies, eye disease, previous procedures, medicines, bruising, swelling, dry eyes, and any vision symptoms. Bring a clear description of the change you want rather than assuming a product is appropriate.

Follow the clinic's instructions about makeup, rubbing, pressure, exercise, and sleeping position. Do not massage a treated area unless specifically directed. Ask whether observation, skincare, Botox, filler, or another option is more suitable; sometimes leaving the area untreated is the safest plan.

Contact the clinic promptly for worsening swelling, increasing pain, skin colour change, or spreading redness. Seek emergency care immediately for blurred or lost vision, severe eye pain, drooping with neurological symptoms, breathing difficulty, or rapidly developing facial swelling.
