The Treatment.
Tear trough filler is a popular aesthetic procedure that can improve the appearance of the under-eye area. This area often appears hollow or sunken due to the loss of volume as a result of ageing or genetics. This treatment involves the injection of a hyaluronic acid-based filler into the tear trough area, which helps to restore volume and create a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
​
The tear trough area is the hollow space under the eyes, and it is often one of the first areas of the face to show signs of ageing. As we age, the skin and tissues around the eyes become thinner and less elastic, which can lead to a sunken appearance.
​
Tear trough filler treatment is an excellent option for individuals who are concerned about the appearance of their under-eye area, particularly if they have hollow or sunken eyes due to genetics or ageing. Good candidates for this treatment include those who are in good overall health, do not have any active infections or skin conditions in the treatment area, and have realistic expectations for the outcome of the procedure.
​
Before the treatment, the area will be numbed with a topical anaesthetic cream to minimise discomfort during the procedure. The filler is then injected into the tear trough area using a cannula.
​
Tear trough filler treatment offers several benefits, including improved appearance, long-lasting results, minimal downtime, and safety. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are safe and effective, with a low risk of complications or side effects.
​
While tear trough filler treatment is generally safe and well-tolerated, there are some potential side effects to be aware of, including swelling or bruising, redness or tenderness, and infection.
It is important to consult with a qualified practitioner who has experience with tear trough filler injections to ensure the best possible outcome and minimise the risk of complications.
​
Overall, tear trough filler treatment is a safe and effective way to improve the appearance of the under-eye area and achieve a more youthful, refreshed look. If you're interested in this treatment, be sure to consult with a qualified practitioner who can provide more information and help you determine if it is the right option for you.
