TEAR TROUGH DERMAL FILLERS
(Tear trough/ under eye hollow and under eye filler treatment)
Have you found you are needing more under eye concealer to reduce the dark circles under your eye?
Or have you found you are looking more sunken under and around the eyes, even though you are well rested? You may have lost volume in this area and it is one of the first areas that show our age and one of the first that we begin to lose volume from.
The tissue under the eye is delicate and is an area that begins to lose volume from approx. 30 years old. Our collagen and elastin decrease and the skin becomes thinner, which leads to the appearance of hollows under the eyes, dark circles, and overall, a more tired sunken appearance.
With careful placement, while respecting the anatomy and delicate tissue of this area, the under-eye area can be instantly rejuvenated with dermal fillers to make you look less tired and improve the sunken appearance. The results are a more youthful, well rested, instantly rejuvenated eye.
In addition to instantly rejuvenating the eye and filling the tear trough hollow, over the next month the quality of the delicate skin under the eye will begin to improve and the lighteners and brighteners in the dermal filler will take effect, targeting the dark circles under the eye. So, although the results are instant, there are further improvements as the filler integrates into the tissue in the following weeks.
The procedure involves injecting a specific premium dermal filler that is made up of hyaluronic acid, into the tear trough or hollow and around the eye. It is a naturally occurring substance that adds volume, and softens and smooths out creases and wrinkles. The results are non-permanent and may last up to 1 year (depending on individual metabolism, medical conditions, skin type, skin condition, lifestyle, age, and type of filler and amount used).
This is a treatment that is not suitable for everyone. To check suitability a full facial assessment and in-depth consultation is essential prior to any treatment. Most patients experience minimal to no pain discomfort and swelling, and return straight back to work after their treatment.
When considering this treatment, it is important to choose an experienced injector to optimise patient safety and best patient outcomes.
