Under eye fillers for dark circles

Q: Is it permissible for me to get under eye fillers for my dark circles? The procedure involves getting hydroponic acid injected into your face to make genetic dark circles look less apparent not necessarily removed but lighter. I look older than I am and it is upsetting as my dark circles are quite apparent. A treatment like this would really help my skin.

A: If this medical procedure is proven beneficial without any side effects, then it is permissible for you to undergo this medical procedure as a treatment.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
