Under-Eye Fillers in Seoul: Procedure, Brands & Cost
Soft hyaluronic acid filler for hollow tear troughs and shadow-type dark circles, with a natural, rested result.
Under-eye fillers inject soft hyaluronic acid beneath the lower eyelid to fill hollow tear troughs and reduce shadows caused by volume loss; they do not treat pigment-type dark circles. Treatment takes 20–30 minutes with numbing; slight swelling or bruising may last 1–3 days. HA filler is reversible if needed. In Seoul, Korean HA filler costs about ₩250,000–₩400,000 per 1cc, with 0.5–1cc per side typically used.
What are under-eye fillers?
Under-eye fillers (tear trough fillers) use soft hyaluronic acid (HA) placed just beneath the lower eyelid to:
- Fill hollow tear troughs
- Reduce dark shadows caused by volume loss
- Smooth the transition between lower eyelid and cheek
- Soften a sunken or tired appearance
They are suited to volume-loss hollows, not pigmentation-based dark circles, which respond better to laser or topical care.
Filler brands for the under-eye area
Only soft, low-swelling fillers suitable for thin under-eye skin are used. Options include:
- Korean: Yvoire Classic, Dermalax, The Chaeum, Rejeunesse
- Global: Restylane Eyelight, Belotero Balance, Juvederm Volbella, Teosyal Redensity II
The doctor chooses a product based on skin thickness and hollow depth.
