The procedure is quick, minimally invasive and results are typically temporary. Results can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used.

- Sun exposure: UV light from the sun can damage skin, leading to premature aging and hollows under the eyes.
- Fat loss: As you lose fat in your face, the skin under your eyes can become hollow and sunken.
