Dark Circle Treatment
Patient Testimonial
Overall I am happy with the improvement in the depth of my eye circles, though I think next time I’d probably get another half syringe so I can get full correction. But I would definitely recommend doing your facial fillers here!

Overview of Dark Circle Treatment
Often our patients complain about the dark circles under their eyes, caused by either hollowing of tissue, or by bags of fat released with aging. These dark circles make people look tired, even when they’re not! Dark circles can be concealed by injecting filler, made of hyaluronic acid, that instantaneously hides the hollows or bags under the eyes. Usually painless and long-lasting, this treatment is an excellent adjunct to the Madonna Lift tightening of eyelid skin.
As an ophthalmologist and cosmetic specialist, Dr. Tantisira is uniquely qualified in Honolulu to do this precision technique around the eyes, including advanced eyelid surgery in Honolulu.
How Dark Circle Treatment Works
This procedure is done very safely using a blunt cannula, which is a hollow tube with a hole on the end, through which the filler flows and fills up the hollows of the eyelid. After using a powerful numbing cream and additional local anesthetic, the procedure is virtually painless.
Results are instantaneous! You can see your improved appearance immediately after the procedure. Undereye filler generally lasts at least one year and often much longer, depending on your metabolism.

Understanding the Causes
