How is filler injected?
Filler with hyaluronic acid is injected deep into the skin using a special syringe with a thin needle. This helps to avoid the formation of edema and hematomas after injections. The entire procedure can take a total of 10-40 minutes.
The cosmetologist must first test for an allergic reaction to the components of Juvederm Volbella. If there is an allergic reaction or possible contraindications, administering the gel is strictly prohibited. It is always recommended to adhere to the correct technique and location of filler injection into the lips or skin area near the eye.
First you need to cleanse your face of cosmetics. The specialist treats the skin at the site of needle insertion with a disinfectant and injects the drug into the lips or skin around the eyes. At this time, a slight tingling or mild pain may be felt at the site of filler penetration. Then, for better distribution of the product, a light mass is performed, which will help distribute the gel evenly and prevent swelling.
At the end of the session, the skin is also re-treated, and the next procedure can be done no earlier than in a few months. Such precautions are necessary to ensure that the filler has time to distribute under the skin and redness and other side effects disappear.
In the first days after the injection, it is prohibited to visit the sauna, bathhouse, swimming pool, solarium or be in direct sunlight. Before going outside, be sure to apply cream to your skin that protects against ultraviolet rays. You cannot massage your face, use a scrub or exfoliate.
The course of injections is prescribed for each client individually and depends on the condition of the skin, the desired effect and other indicators. A cosmetology salon must have a license to operate, and cosmetologists must gain sufficient experience in this field.
Which ones to choose for bruises, bags and dark circles, wrinkles
The drug is selected according to the characteristics of the defects in the area under the eyes. If these are dark circles, you need a product with a high concentration of hyaluronic acid. That is, they will fit:
- Juvederm Ultra
- Juvederm Ultra Plus
- Juvederm Voluma
- "Princess Filler"
- "Perline"
- "Ivor Classic".
The same drugs will also remove bags under the eyes.
If you are only worried about wrinkles, you should use:
- "Princess Rich"
- Juvederm Volbella
- "Restylane Touch".
Hyaluronic acid for dark circles under the eyes
Hyaluronic acid is often used for dark circles and dark circles under the eyes , as it affects the skin in several ways:
- stimulates collagen synthesis, that is, rejuvenates it,
- fills the space formed with age in the infraorbital region due to the attraction of water molecules with its own volume,
- improves metabolic processes, which means oxygen supply to tissues,
- relieves congestion in the lower eyelid area.
The substance in new filler drugs is synthetic. But hyaluronic acid is part of living tissues, so in most cases it is well accepted by the body. And the artificiality of its origin prevents allergies from developing.
After the injection of hyaluronic acid, traces of the injections are visible, but after a few days the skin color becomes lighter. And the darkness on the lower eyelids caused by sagging disappears immediately if a high-density product is used. Otherwise, to achieve the desired effect, you need to wait a few days until the “hyaluronic acid” starts working.

Fillers in the eye sockets for dark circles under the eyes
It is best to choose biodegradable fillers used in the eye sockets for dark circles under the eyes. These are products based not only on hyaluronic acid, but also on collagen and polylactate. But even among drugs that dissolve over time, the choice is quite wide.
Which filler is better - Princess or Juvederm?
For young eyelid skin, it is better to use Princess filler, since Juvederm preparations are denser and “long-lasting”. The action of the first remedy is to normalize cellular metabolism, due to which elasticity and oxygen supply are restored and bruises disappear. At the age of 20-25 this is enough.
The Juvederm line has denser formulations. They are used when blueness under the eyes is caused not only by the translucency of blood vessels, but also by sagging skin. However, which drug will be better in a particular case should be decided together with a cosmetologist. The choice depends on the patient’s age, the initial condition of the eyelids, and the desired effect.
Which is the best anti-wrinkle filler for the eyes - Ivor or Juvederm Volbella?
If you need a filler for eye wrinkles, it is difficult to say which is better to use - Ivor or Juvederm Volbella, the choice depends on the type and extent of the problem. The first line contains products for young patients (“Yvoire Hydro”), in whom it occurs due to dryness. The manufacturer also has a drug for women with age-related deep wrinkles (“Yvoire Classic”). Both of them act quite gently, without disturbing the naturalness of the infraorbital area.
The more expensive Juvederm Volbella is indicated for severe ptosis of the lower eyelid and deep nasolacrimal groove. It is denser, which would seem to provide a long and pronounced effect. But if you introduce it to a patient who does not yet have sufficiently noticeable folds, the lower eyelid will look heavy, and the skin will look unnaturally stretched and swollen.
Filler "Princess Rich" under the eyes
Princess Rich filler should be used under the eyes if you need to remove fine lines and wrinkles, refresh and moisturize the skin. The product will not cope with a pronounced nasolacrimal fold. After all, it does not have the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid - 18 mg/ml. But after 3 sessions with breaks of 3 weeks, dry skin will noticeably smooth out and become lighter.
What injections can be used to remove dryness under the eyes?
Dryness under the eyes, which sometimes bothers us even at a young age , can be removed with injections of light versions of drugs with hyaluronic acid and vitamins:
- "TEOSYAL First Lines"
- "Juvederm Hydrate"
- "Restylane Touch"
- "Restylane Vital"
- Yvoire Hydro
- "Princess Rich"
- "Viscoderm 0.8".
They do not fill wrinkles, but smooth them out by awakening the skin's internal resources and having a moisturizing effect.
What kind of filler can be used under the eyes to tighten the skin?
To tighten the skin under the eyes, you can inject one of the following fillers:
- "Surgiderm Surgilift Plus"
- "Yvoire Classic"
- "Princess Filler"
- "Teosyal Redensity II"
- "Juvederm Ultra 2".
Each of them activates the growth of young cells, so the surface becomes more elastic, smoother, and fresher. Due to the above effects, bruises and age-related folds disappear.
How to remove hollows under the eyes with injections
You can only remove age-related hollows under the eyes with injections from a cosmetologist; the procedure is not done at home. The drug is chosen after examination, it can be:
"Juvederm Volbella" | Hyaluronic acid in it is 15 mg/ml. The product has high plasticity, so it distributes well, filling the space formed with age. It contains lidocaine, so the procedure will not be too uncomfortable. | |

How to remove bags under the eyes with fillers
Removing bags under the eyes using hyaluronic fillers is more difficult than smoothing out wrinkles and eliminating bruises, because the problem can be caused by the appearance of fatty hernias in this area. And they are removed surgically, but you can also act:
- "Juvederm Volbella"
- "STYLAGE"
- "Restylane Touch".
The temporary effect is formed by accelerating metabolic processes in tissues, that is, partial thinning of the fat layer, as well as thickening and smoothing of the skin.
Complications after Juvederm Volbella
Despite the fact that after injection of filler into the lips or skin under the eyes there are practically no serious side effects, the following complications can be identified:
- Tissue swelling;
- Presence of bruises;
- Impaired skin sensitivity;
- Pigmentation.
These phenomena usually do not cause any harm to health and often disappear on their own or after minor correction. Swelling may be a consequence of tissue reaction to needle punctures of the skin, and hematomas occur due to damage to small vessels. Sensitivity is impaired as a result of temporary pressure of the filler on the nerves.
Much more serious complications after a cosmetic procedure include fibrosis, necrosis, granuloma formation and changes in skin texture. The cause of fibrosis is the body's reaction to a foreign substance (gel). A lump forms under the skin where the needle was inserted, which may enlarge over time and become too noticeable. Also, immediately after the injections, the skin may turn white - this is a reaction to the lidocaine included in Juvederm Volbella.
If the drug is administered too close to the skin surface, filler migration may occur and the skin texture may change. Pathology such as necrosis occurs in very rare cases and is considered the most serious reaction of the body to filler. The cause of necrosis is the entry of the gel into the vessel. If the filler is rejected by the body, granulomas can form, which are dense nodules above the surface of the skin.
All these consequences of using Juvederm Volbella can have varying degrees of severity and occur immediately after the session or several days later. The cosmetologist determines which complications need correction and treatment and which do not.
In order to avoid their occurrence, it is enough to follow simple recommendations and rules:
1) Give injections only in a specialized salon (clinic);
2) Find out whether there are any contraindications to filler injection;
3) Use only a high-quality product with a certificate;
4) Contact a qualified specialist;
5) Do not reuse the syringe.

Juvederm Volbella should not be injected into the skin under the eyes or around the lips if there are the following contraindications:
- Pregnancy;
- Breastfeeding period;
- Allergy to filler components;
- Tendency to form scars;
- Blood clotting disorder.
If injections are performed in the presence of direct contraindications, undesirable consequences may occur.
