Tear Trough Filler

Tear trough filler offers multiple benefits for those seeking under-eye rejuvenation:

• Reduces dark circles: The filler minimises the shadowing effect that contributes to dark circles by adding volume.
• Restores volume and smooth fine lines: Fills hollowness under the eyes, creating a seamless transition between the lower eyelid and cheek.
• Minimally invasive: This treatment only requires a few small injections, making it a quick and minimally invasive option.
• Immediate and long-lasting results: Many patients notice improvement right after the procedure, and due to the durability of cross-linked HA fillers, results can last beyond a year.
• Quick recovery: Minimal downtime allows most patients to resume daily activities almost immediately.
• Customisable and reversible: Hyaluronic acid-based fillers can be adjusted or dissolved, providing flexibility and control over the results.

Why Hyaluronic Acid-based fillers are ideal for tear troughs?

Tear trough fillers and most facial fillers use hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin that retains moisture and adds volume. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are popular for their safety, versatility, and ability to provide natural-looking results, making them ideal for treating delicate areas like the under-eye.

How cross-linking extends filler longevity?

In HA fillers, hyaluronic acid molecules are cross-linked, stabilising the filler and making it last longer. Cross-linking strengthens the bonds between molecules, preventing quick breakdown and maintaining volume in the treated area for an extended period. This ensures you enjoy results that last longer with minimal maintenance.

Safe and flexible with dissolvable fillers

Our specialists prioritise safety by using dissolvable hyaluronic acid fillers that can be broken down with hyaluronidase if needed. This option provides flexibility to safely correct any issues that may arise, such as overfilling or an undesired result. In the delicate tear trough area, this added level of safety is essential for achieving precise and optimal outcomes tailored to each patient.

What to expect during the Tear Trough filler procedure?

The tear trough filler procedure involves minimal discomfort. A numbing cream is typically applied to the area before injection, ensuring you feel at ease. While some patients may experience slight discomfort, pain is usually mild and short-lived. Minor bruising or swelling can occur but generally resolves within a few days, allowing you to resume your normal activities shortly after.

Quick recovery with immediate results

One of the advantages of tear trough filler is the minimal downtime. Results are immediately visible, with the full effect becoming more apparent as any initial swelling subsides. Longevity varies, but cross-linked HA formulations are known for their durability in the tear trough area. Most individuals find their results effective until they desire a significant volume increase, with follow-up appointments helping assess the need for touch-ups over time.

How long does Tear Trough filler last?

A common misconception is that tear trough filler needs to be repeated every 6-18 months. However, cross-linked HA formulations often last significantly longer in the under-eye area. Factors like metabolism and lifestyle may affect longevity, but most individuals find their results remain effective until they desire a significant volume increase. Regular follow-up appointments with your practitioner will help assess when a touch-up might be beneficial, allowing you to maintain optimal results over time.
