Studysummary This study found that injecting hyaluronic acid fillers using a layered feathering technique temporarily corrected entropion and relieved associated symptoms in two dogs, an Old English Bulldog and a Chow Chow, maintaining eyelid positions for 6-8 months. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
In a study from March 2021, two dogs, a 3-year-old Old English Bulldog and a 5-month-old Chow Chow, diagnosed with entropion were treated with hyaluronic acid (HA) filler injections as an alternative to surgery. The layered feathering technique was used to administer the HA, which proved to be effective in correcting the entropion. The results showed that the eyelid positions were successfully maintained for 6-8 months post-procedure. This suggests that HA filler injections can provide a quick and effective, albeit temporary, relief for canine entropion.
