TEAR TROUGH FILLERS

Natural ageing genetics and lifestyle can cause the area under the eyes (also known as tear troughs) to lose volume and look more hollow, the skin to become thinner or crepey, and wrinkles or dark circles to become more pronounced, meaning you can look more tired. Treatment involves injecting a hyaluronic acid filler into the tear trough area, reducing the appearance of dark circles or hollows under the eyes.

​

Tear trough filler will not be right for everyone, as the best candidates tend to be those who have a visible hollow under the eye, so a consultation is necessary to determine the right treatment. The area under the eye is very delicate, so we’ll need to make sure what’s right for you – and we can recommend alternatives.

Filler is carefully injected along the tear trough under the eyes to smooth the transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek, resulting in a younger-looking, less tired appearance. Tear trough filler can help improve the appearance of under-eye hollows and dark circles, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and boost hydration.

​

Tear trough injections are an incredibly advanced treatment due to the proximity to your eyes, the number of blood vessels in the area and the delicacy of the skin. When administered by a qualified and experienced practitioner, tear trough fillers are considered safe. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks and side effects that should be taken into consideration.

​

Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are considered safe and biocompatible as they closely resemble the substance naturally found in the body. While adverse reactions are rare, possible risks and side effects of tear trough fillers may include temporary swelling, bruising, redness, or discomfort at the injection site.

With results lasting around 12-18 months, tear trough filler is a fantastic option for those wishing to rejuvenate tired looking eyes.
