Are Under Eye Filler Dangerous?

Risks and Precautions

Under eye filler treatments require precise technique and medical expertise, as the skin in this area is thin and the blood vessels lie close to the surface. When performed by a qualified aesthetic nurse with experience in aesthetic injectables, the risk of complications is minimal.

Common and Mild Reactions

• Slight redness or swelling
• Minor bruising
• Temporary unevenness or small bumps

These reactions are completely normal and usually subside within a few days.

Rare but More Serious Complications

• Overfilling, which may cause a “puffy” appearance
• Vascular complications if the filler is injected incorrectly
• Small lumps that may require adjustment by the nurse

At MyClinic, our injection specialists use CE-marked products and modern techniques to minimize all risks.
Before every treatment, we carry out an individual assessment to tailor the product choice, amount, and technique to your unique skin type and anatomy.

What to Consider Before and After Treatment

For the best possible results and maximum safety, our aesthetic nurses recommend the following:

Before the Treatment

• Avoid blood-thinning medications (such as Treo, Ipren, Aspirin) and alcohol at least 48 hours before the treatment, unless otherwise advised.
• Arrive without makeup in the treatment area.
• Inform your nurse about any medications or skin conditions.

After the Treatment

• Avoid touching or pressing the area for the first few days.
• Apply a cool compress if needed to reduce swelling.
• Avoid intense exercise, saunas, and alcohol for 24–48 hours.
• Contact us at MyClinic if you experience unusual pain, severe redness, or discoloration.

By following these aftercare instructions, you’ll help your skin recover faster and achieve a natural, long-lasting result.
