Info: Tear Trough Filler Treatment

Sometimes we look at ourselves and see an ever increasing hollowness forming under our eyes. Others might tell us that we look tired or stressed when we might not feel that way. If that’s the case, then tear trough filler could be the solution you need.

What are Tear Troughs and how do we treat them?

Tear troughs are hollows that form underneath the eyes as a result of fat loss and skin laxity which can make us look tired or older than we actually are. Tear troughs are often genetic but can be made worse with age, smoking, stress or lack of sleep.

The good news is they can be easily fixed with dermal fillers with an impressive success rate. With the right precision and expertise, the area could be completely restored to give the appearance of a great night’s sleep. The results are designed to look completely natural- you’ll just look fresher and less tired, nothing less, nothing more.

Dermal filler is effectively a gel made of cross-linked hyaluronic acid (which is contained naturally within the skin itself) which gives it the ability to provide structural enhancements, such as lifting out the tear trough hollows. Because hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the skin, the filler usually integrates really well into the skin and can lead to enhancements that look natural but impactful.

The under eye is a very delicate area and it’s important that the treatment is applied conservatively to ensure that just the right amount is used to prevent over-filling. This is why the treatment should be conducted by an experienced clinician who knows exactly what they are doing and can tailor the treatment to your specific needs and goals.
