Under Eye Bags &
Dark Circles

Under Eye
Wrinkles
You may think the wrinkles under your eyes are making you look older, but we often find that the real culprit is the bags and dark circles that accompany the wrinkles. The good news is that fillers are an excellent solution for restoring volume and reducing bags and shadows. Additionally, under eye filler treatments may also improve wrinkles as a by-product.

Under Eye Bulging
(Jelly Roll BOTOX)
Unlike eye bags, which are caused by displaced fat and volume loss, some people have small bulges just beneath their lower lashes that get more pronounced when they smile. These “jelly rolls” are caused by an overactive muscle, and they can make the eyes look smaller. By injecting a neuromodulator like BOTOX into the muscle, we restore a refreshed, more open look to the eyes.

Dissolving Under
Eye Filler With
Hyaluronidase
Not every provider approaches the under eye area with the precision and patience MFI is known for. If you’ve got asymmetry, bulging, or a blue tint under your eyes from filler, the experts at MFI can administer corrective injections, and in some cases re-do your under eye filler to create the results you want.
