Details for Case #12230
This 44-year-old woman began her consultation with her Beverly Hills area plastic surgeon at Marina Plastic Surgery Associates exclaiming, “I’m tired of looking tired!” She felt that large, dark circles under her eyes made them look hollowed and baggy. After being told for some time by those around her that she looked constantly tired or unhappy, this woman decided to find out whether there was a treatment that could help her look more awake and refreshed.
Based on her surgeon’s recommendation, this woman selected Restylane® injectable filler to smooth out her tear troughs. Restylane contains hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body and helps restore or enhance volume around the eyes, mouth, cheeks, or lips. When administered by a qualified medical professional, this dermal filler can restore a firmer and more vibrant look that typically lasts for about eight months.
This woman’s post-procedure photo shows significant reduction in the appearance of the deep hollow areas below her eyes. After her treatments she now looks more rejuvenated and youthful. For patients that desire more dramatic results, a Beverly Hills area cosmetic surgery procedure like a face lift or blepharoplasty (eyelid lift) can reverse many of these problematic characteristics much more permanently.
