3 Things To Try BEFORE Getting Under Eye Filler

Here at Refresh & Renew MedSpa in Clarkston, MI we’re all about keeping it real, which means we aren’t going to shy away from talking about when it’s NOT a good idea to get a certain treatment. And today we’re going to talk about under eye filler.  

Now let’s get one thing straight… we love how dermal fillers can add volume to lift and contour facial features. Our services include dermal fillers and we provide them to many happy clients. But that doesn’t mean fillers should be used for every area lacking volume every time.

There are important considerations to keep in mind before getting fillers, and it’s essential that you get to the bottom of what’s bothering you to ensure your elected services align with your needs and goals. 

When it comes to under eye concerns, determine exactly what you wish to change: 

Is it puffiness? 

Is it dark circles? 

Is it hyperpigmentation (patches of skin that are darker than the rest of your skin)?

Or is it some or all of the above?

Under eyes are complex and can have multiple issues. Determining the problems help to guide the appropriate treatments.

Sometimes it can be difficult to pinpoint the issue, and the best way to uncover the problem is with a free consultation at Refresh & Renew MedSpa in Oakland County. Your expert practitioner will assess your skin, review your needs and discuss your desired outcomes to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique skin care goals.

3 Ways To Address Under Eye Issues Before Getting Filler

Once you’ve identified what your primary concern is, we recommend exploring these options to address the issue before getting under eye filler:

Sometimes a multimodal approach to treatment yields the best results.

1. Medical-grade skincare 

   Backed by extensive research and formulated with scientifically proven ingredients, medical-grade skincare products can effectively target specific concerns with personalized solutions. Products like DEJ Eye Cream are specially designed to combat under eye issues like skin laxity. During your consultation, your Refresh & Renew MedSpa practitioner will outline the right Revision Skincare medical-grade products in your individualized treatment plan to help correct your under eye concerns. 

2. Regenerative medicine

   Biostimulators are an exciting aspect of regenerative aesthetics that use the body’s own healing properties to produce natural-looking, long-lasting results. Derma is a biostimulator that creates a filler-like substance from your body’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to replace lost volume. The combination of concentrated platelets, growth factors and stem cells from your blood stimulates a healing cascade in the body that produces new collagen and elastin, rejuvenating the skin and tissue naturally. This powerful injectable treatment gives you instant filler-like results with the long-term regenerative benefits of increased collagen and elastin production.

3. Rule out fat pads

   Take the time to investigate if what’s really bothering you is actually a fat pad. If you’re not sure, talk with your practitioner at Refresh & Renew MedSpa in Clarkston, MI during your consultation and she will help you uncover the true cause of your concerns. If a fat pad is the culprit, explore treatments that remove or shrink fat cells. Non-surgical options like Agnes Precision RF help to permanently shrink fat cells, while surgical options like a lower blepharoplasty can either reposition or remove fat from the under eye area. 

Refresh & Renew MedSpa offers customized plans to address all of your under eye issues.
