One of the most frequently requested aesthetic treatments is focused on addressing “tired eyes” or on a general “tired facial appearance”. Therefore, understanding the complexities of the tear trough and of the periorbital region are paramount for every injector to be able to tackle these difficult patient needs. Lear in this module how to understand the tear trough and how to best perform safe and effective periorbital rejuvenate treatment, especially using soft tissue fillers. The proximity to the ophthalmic artery circulation poses a high vascular risk which unfortunately resulted in reported cases of blindness. See in this module safer injection techniques demonstrated on predissected body donors which will help to increase the aesthetic and safety profile.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the layered anatomy of the periorbital, tear trough, and glabellar region.
- Appraise the complexities of the periorbital arterial and venous vasculature as it pertains to soft tissue filler injections.
- Compare the dangers and benefits of using a needle versus a cannula injection technique when treating the periorbital region including the glabella, the tear trough, and the palpebromalar groove.
- Distinguish between superficial versus deep injections techniques and relate this to the clinical outcome.
Included Videos
The periorbital region is directly connected to the temple and the forehead via direct fascial layers and via the arterial vascular network.
