Over time, it becomes more and more difficult to keep your facial skin firm and vibrant. This is especially true in the tear trough area beneath the eyes, where many of us develop bags, hollows, and wrinkles. These blemishes can cause us to look like we’re always exhausted, a condition often referred to as “tired eyes.” If you’d like to restore your smooth, youthful-looking tear troughs, you may want to try the new Restylane Eyelight dermal filler.
What Is Restylane Eyelight?
Restylane Eyelight is an FDA-approved tear trough filler and the newest dermal filler in the Restylane collection. This injectable cosmetic treatment is used to add volume to the skin beneath the eyes, filling in hollows and reducing the appearance of wrinkles, bags, and dark circles.
How Does Restylane Eyelight Work?
Like other fillers in the Restylane collection, Restylane Eyelight is made with hyaluronic acid. When the hyaluronic acid-based gel is injected beneath the eyes, it adds plump, natural-looking volume and smooths the skin. This gives the tear trough area a more youthful appearance and greatly reduces the appearance of under-eye bags, dark circles, and wrinkles.
What Are the Benefits of Restylane Eyelight?
If you’d like to achieve smoother, more youthful tear troughs, Restylane Eyelight treatment in Morgantown can provide you with some or all of the following benefits:
- Firmer, more youthful-looking skin beneath the eyes
- Reduces the appearance of under-eye wrinkles, bags, and dark circles
- Adds natural-looking volume to the tear trough areas
- Increased self-confidence and self-image
- Fills in under-eye hollows
- Minimal recovery downtime
- Minimally invasive treatment
- Corrects “tired eyes”
What Should I Expect During the Procedure?
Before you undergo Restylane Eyelight treatment, the first step will be a quick consultation with Dr. Leong or one of our other providers. They’ll ensure that you’re a good candidate for the treatment and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan.
Restylane Eyelight treatment is a quick outpatient procedure that can be performed right at our Morgantown clinic. To begin, a topical anesthetic will be applied to your skin in the treatment area. Next, your injector professional will inject the filler into the skin beneath your eyes using a very fine needle. Overall, Restylane Eyelight treatment should only take approximately 15 to 30 minutes, and you can leave immediately after it’s finished.
How Long Is the Recovery Time?
Most patients do not require any real recovery downtime after undergoing Restylane Eyelight treatment. We recommend that you avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours, and your provider will give you other instructions to ensure that your skin heals correctly. However, you should be able to return to work and resume your normal routine right away.
How Long Will It Take To See Results After Restylane Eyelight Treatment?
You may be able to see improvements in your under-eye areas immediately after your Restylane Eyelight treatment, but it usually takes around 10 to 14 days for the final results to become visible. You can typically expect the positive effects of the treatment to last for around six months.
