In one out of every two women or in one in three men, pitting under the eye, ringing, bruising or pitting on the lower part of the bag as a result of lower eyelid bagging is seen at a certain period of their life. Although there is no age limit, this problem becomes more apparent in older ages. However, there are many patients presenting with these complaints even in their twenties. Light filling is not something that occurs in the lower eyelid or corrects the dark skin color of the eyelid. However, the closer the cavity is to the bone, the darker and sunken it looks, and since the dimpled area reflects less light and creates pitting deformity, the patients become aware of the problem in this area and wait for this situation to be corrected. They usually use intense concealer on this area, they use white light-toned products, they cannot go out without make-up, and they are uncomfortable with this situation when taking pictures. They apply to the physician because of reactions such as being tired, exhausted, sad, or even using my substance. As a plastic surgeon, after listening to the complaints of the patient, we examine the current problem and explain the applications and methods for the treatment of this issue to the patient in detail. Here, we state that the application to be performed while informing the patient will not cause any change in the skin color, and we offer the options of light filling and prices.
If the existing pitting has occurred as a result of lower eyelid bag growth and the bagging is significant, the patient is told that the eyelid surgery will be more beneficial. If the bagging is light, the problem in this area can be camouflaged by filling the pit under the bag. Thus, the patient's problem can be solved with a very simple application without surgery.
If the cupping is at a very pronounced level and is formed in the face, cheekbone and cheek area, fat injection is recommended instead of filling. Although 10% of the patients with this type of complaint require fat transfer from their own body, 80% of the patients who apply get successful results with the filling application to be made and the problem is saved. The filler contains hyaluronic acid, which normally has a high water retention feature in our skin, so it contains materials that will make the injection area smoother and flat.
This procedure can be applied not only to the eyes but also to every part of the face (cheekbone, cheek, nose edge, lip edge, mid-eyebrow). The new formula developed for the eyelid, which we have been using for years, is a thinner and higher technology product in this area, and the accumulation does not cause irregularity and gives a homogeneous flat appearance to the swollen area. This product, which does not have any side effects, lasts for an average of one and a half years and can be applied 1 cc if necessary, 2 cc if necessary, depending on the need in the pitted area.
In other words, the amount applied according to the size of the pit is determined during the process. It is an easy injection application. It is applied painlessly under local anesthesia. If the patient sees the result immediately, the amount of filling to be made can be increased at the same time or within 1 to 2 weeks. Although the application time is as short as one or two minutes, the patient is recommended to apply a cold complex after the procedure. Thus, the bruises that will occur can be minimized. In most cases, there is no bruise and edema in the patient, but if they do, they can turn it off with make-up and return to their social lives and get rid of their problems with an easy application.
Light filling is also known as "under eye filling". Because, light filling is a filling produced for under the eyes. This filling is used to remove the bruises and bags around the eyes. Under-eye filling is called light filling because it cleans and brightens the under eye. The light filling provides the skin to shine and the tissue to be renewed. Before the application, the doctors examine the patient's skin. Before anesthesia, a special tonic for a clean skin is used to clean under eye dirt or make-up. In this filling treatment, an injection is made into the under eye area using fine needles. The operation is performed under local anesthesia. Anesthesia is injected to numb the area to be operated.
Filler injection is done on the bone, not under the skin. In this respect, it is different from other filling applications. The operation takes about 30 minutes. In light filling treatment, the desired result is obtained in a single session. The duration of permanence varies between 1-1.5 years. Two substances are used in the treatment. These substances are Hyaluronic acid and poly vitamin complex. Hyaluronic acid provides removal of under-eye bruises and bags, and then poly vitamins are used. Because, poly vitamins provide long-term renewal of cells. The effect of light filling varies according to the material used in the filling. Fillers made using hyaluronic acid show their effect for a long time. Except for pregnant and breastfeeding women, this filler can be applied to every individual who has completed their development.
There are some rules that physicians say to their patients after light filling. Because aesthetics can be successful not only by undergoing the operation, but also by performing the necessary applications afterwards. Light filling is not a risky operation. It is performed under local anesthesia and the person can return to normal life on the same day. No pain is felt during and after the operation. In some centers, the procedure can even be performed without local anesthesia. However, as with any surgical intervention, some complications may occur.
After the treatment, mild redness and bruising may be seen in the areas where the filling was injected. To prevent this, ice treatment is recommended. If done regularly, bruises will disappear in a short time. Some doctors may recommend a special gel for rash relief. Also, after this process, patients may feel itching. However, they should not scratch in any way. If these complications continue for a long time, patients should see their doctor. Approximately 2 weeks after the light filling treatment, it is recommended to see the application doctor again. The doctor then decides whether a new session is needed. If a new application is required, it will only be applied after 4 weeks. If more than one session is given, this should be followed. Because this is how permanent and desired appearance is possible.
At the end of the session, the under-eye pit of the individuals fills, the quality of the tissue around the eyes increases, and the under-eye bags and lines decrease.
Light filling and prices vary with factors such as the drugs to be used in the application, the region where the application will be made, the clinic and the doctor. The size, color and wrinkles of the area to be light filling are among the criteria that determine the transaction price.
Light filling and prices vary from person to person. Because, the size and prevalence of under eye bruises and puffiness play a role in price determination. The amount of medicine that the doctor will apply in the light filling depends on the size of the bruise or swelling. The amount of the drug also determines the price of the filling procedure. If there are excessive dark circles under the eyes, the milligram of the drug will be high and this increases the cost of the procedure. If there is less bruising and darkening in the application area, a more economical price is obtained. In addition, places where cheap, poor quality materials are used are cheap. However, the use of poor quality materials may cause complications such as allergic reactions during the procedure and the filling to be ineffective. For this reason, it is very important to apply the light filling process with quality materials and in a quality environment and to have the right doctor get the speed of the patient's healing process and a healthy operation.
As with any surgical intervention such as lip filling and face filling, this procedure should be done by a correct and reliable doctor. In aesthetic centers, people who are not physicians should not have this operation. In order to learn the price of the light filling procedure, it is necessary to go to a doctor to examine the eye contour and to examine the bruises and swelling around the eyes. The doctor determines an appropriate price based on these criteria.
