Who it’s for

  • The manufacturer’s US instructions state that Sculptra injection in the periorbital area has not been studied. This page does not establish safety for direct under-eye injection or Korean approval; the intended area needs clinical confirmation.
  • Its approach differs from immediate filling with HA. PLLA cannot be dissolved with hyaluronidase, so conservative planning matters. Under-eye darkness may involve hollows, protruding fat, pigmentation or skin quality. Product instructions, eyelid function and previous treatments guide suitability.

Suitability requires an examination. Skin thickness, health and previous procedures may make a different approach more appropriate.
