Under-Eye Filler — Dark Circles (Redensity II)

The under-eye area — the tear trough — is one of the most technically demanding injection sites because the skin is exceptionally thin, the underlying anatomy is complex and bruising is conspicuous. Redensity II Eyes (Teoxane, Switzerland) was developed specifically for this indication: it is a monophasic hyaluronic acid gel at 15 mg/ml combined with a unique blend of amino acids (including glycine, lysine and proline — precursors to collagen),…
