I would like to have filler injections under the eyes to reduce age-related wrinkles and hollows. I've had a bad experience with a dermatologist doing this procedure at a hospital in Pattaya when the fillers did not stay where they were injected and later on slipped lower. I had to have then hyaluronidase injections to dissolve the filler.  A couple of years later I've read on the internet that such injections better done primarily on the bone in the periosteum membrane to prevent slippage.  The Pattaya dermatologist apparently did not do that.  I've recently consulted Dr Kamphon Socharoentam, a dermatologist at Yanhee hospital, who specializes in these injections. He quoted B19K for 1 ampule (ml) of Restylane and suggested 3 ml in total in my case, so it's almost $2k. He spoke good English and appeared quite knowledgeable about fillers and various ways to inject them. Can anyone recommend other dermatologists or plastic surgeons at clinics in Pattaya on in Bangkok who are good at these in injections and perhaps have lower prices?

All I can tell you is that I also had bad experience with filler under the eyes, and from a very experienced doctor I have used and continue to use for filler elsewhere on the face.

 

In my case problem different than yours, it did not slip but rather puffed up just enough post injection to make it look worse than before; this can happen as the HA absorbs moisture. I also had to resort to hyaluronidase injections to dissolve . 

 

Filler injections in the tear trough are very, very tricky and basically I gave it up. If I were going to try it again (unlikely)  I would insist on going light i.e. injection less than the doctor thinks needed as you can always inject more later but if they over inject your are stuck as there is no way to fine tune the enzyme dissolution.  And I'd try to find a doctor with a lot if experience specific to that part of the face.
