Hyaluronic acid filler for the pretarsal roll explained

Hyaluronic acid is injected into the lash line of the lower eyelid to create a bulge called a pretarsal roll.

The bulge in the lower eyelid that forms when you smile is called a pretarsal roll. This is formed by the contraction of a muscle called the orbicularis oculi muscle. Those with well-defined pretarsal roll have more gentle, larger eyes. In addition, a firm bulge gives the impression that the person is smiling on a regular basis, which is likely to increase their likability.
Fine lines and wrinkles on the skin can also be improved by injections.

Method

Hyaluronic acid is injected to form pretarsal rolls.
The injection amount and injection site can be adjusted according to the desired shape. It can last from several months to a year.
If absorbed, repeat injections are possible.
