APRILINE® Normal. This is a non- permanent,


absorbable, injectable


material for the correction of soft tissue defects. APRILINE® Normal is produced by bacterial fermentation and


stabilised using a highly


concentrated water solution without addition of other acids or alkaloids (A.P.R.I. Modification). This technology creates the specific spatial structure of HA molecules through effective linkages by BDDE. The concentration of hyaluronic acid per APRILINE® Normal filler is 23 mg/ml. The quantity of filler used for patients is between 0.6 and 0.8ml.


Procedural technique The 14 patients who did not demonstrate contraindication to hyaluronic acid filler injections were selected. Standard manipulations were carried out: all the patients were photographed in sufficient lighting on the procedure day, at 30 and 90 days. Written informed consent was obtained from all the patients. The procedure


of filler injection was


conducted as follows: ■Patients are reclined at 45° as the tear trough deformity is better

■APRILINE® NORMAL hyaluronic acid filler is injected using needle 27G with 0.6-0.8ml per one patient. The needle is injected at 90 degrees to the skin surface, deep to the orbicularis oculi and periosteal tissue. The first injection is performed from the medial side, usually 0.5cm from the medial cantus. 3–4 injections below the

Class Clinical description I


II III


A volume loss is limited medially to the tear trough ligament. The patients also have a mild flattening extending to the central cheek


The patients exhibit volume loss in the lateral orbital area in addition to the medial orbit and they may have moderate volume deficiency in the medial cheek and flattening of the central upper cheek


The patients have a full depression circumferentially along the orbital rim medially to laterally


Conclusion Development


of the tear trough


ligament during ageing can be the reason for dark under-eye circles. Treatment with APRILINE® NORMAL hyaluronic acid filler (0.6-0.8ml) is a minimally invasive and effective solution for under-eye dark circles. Patients are typically highly satisfied with the aesthetic outcome from the use of this versatile product.
