Sunken under eyes can affect your overall appearance, making you look tired or older than you feel. At Dermatique Laser and Skin in Geneva, IL, we provide advanced dermal filler treatments, including Juvéderm®, Voluma®, Volbella®, Vollure®, Sculptra®, and Renuva®, to restore volume and rejuvenate the under-eye area.
Our caring team is committed to helping you achieve natural and refreshed results. In this article, we’ll discuss the causes of hollow under eyes, how dermal fillers can help, and answer common questions.
Several factors can lead to sunken under eyes, giving the face a tired or aged look. Common causes include:
Without treatment, these factors can lead to a more pronounced hollow under the eyes, casting shadows that make dark circles and tiredness more visible.
At Dermatique Laser and Skin, we use dermal fillers to restore volume to the under-eye area, smoothing hollows and reducing the appearance of dark circles. Our treatment options include:
A hyaluronic acid-based filler that provides hydration and volume to plump the under-eye area, offering instant rejuvenation.
Adds structure and volume to the cheeks and mid-face, indirectly improving sunken appearance under the eyes.
A softer, finer filler ideal for delicate areas like the under-eyes, providing subtle volume while smoothing fine lines.
This filler offers a balance of flexibility and volume, ideal for adding subtle fullness to the under-eye area without overfilling.
Stimulates collagen production over time to naturally restore volume under the eyes, creating long-lasting results.

The results vary by filler. JUVÉDERM® and VOLBELLA® typically last 6 to 12 months, while Sculptra® can last up to 2 years as it stimulates natural collagen production. Renuva® can offer even longer-lasting results depending on individual factors.
Yes, fillers like JUVÉDERM®, VOLBELLA®, and VOLLURE® offer immediate volume restoration, while Sculptra® works gradually over several months, building collagen to provide long-term improvement.
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure. A fine needle or cannula is used for precision, and we offer topical numbing creams to enhance comfort during the treatment.
Mild swelling, baruising, or redness at the injection sites are common side effects. These usually subside within a few days. Our team uses advanced techniques to ensure a smooth, comfortable recovery.
During your consultation, our practitioner will assess your skin and discuss your goals. Based on this, we’ll recommend the most suitable filler, whether it’s VOLBELLA® for a delicate touch or Sculptra® for longer-lasting collagen-building results.
