Tear Trough Filler
If you’re looking to rejuvenate the eye area there are several treatments that can be used to freshen this area and create a more youthful appearance.
We specialise in treatments to rejuvenate and enhance your eye area, including tear-trough filler, and volume loss in the upper lid, known as “A-frame deformity”. We utilise advanced techniques and high-quality dermal fillers to reduce dark circles, smooth out hollows, and restore volume loss around the eyes.
What is Tear Trough Filler?
Tear trough filler is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of dark circles, hollows, and bags under the eyes. At our London, Dublin and Dubai clinic, this procedure involves the injection of hyaluronic acid into the under-eye area to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. It is ideal for individuals looking to rejuvenate their eye area without undergoing surgery. Dermal filler can also be injected in the upper eye lid region to improve hollowing and dark shadows that result from volume loss.
How Does Tear Trough Filler Work?
Tear trough fillers work by adding volume to the under-eye area, reducing the depth of the tear troughs and smoothing out hollows. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, is injected in the under eye area creating a hydrating and plumping effect in the skin, diminishing dark circles and creating a more refreshed look.
Treatment Protocol?
The treatment protocol for tear trough fillers at our London clinic typically starts with an initial consultation to discuss your goals and assess your suitability for the procedure. On the day of the treatment the filler is injected using a cannula. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes, and the results are immediate. Post-treatment care includes avoiding excessive facial movements and refraining from applying pressure to the treated area for at least 24 hours.
Types of Tear Trough Filler?
Several types of fillers can be used for the tear trough area. Each has its own properties and the choice of filler depends on your individual needs. We can advise you on the various options to ensure the best results.
Benefits of Tear Trough Filler?
- Reduced Dark Circles: Lightens the under-eye area, diminishing dark circles.
- Restored Volume: Adds fullness to hollow under-eye areas.
- Youthful Appearance: Smooths out fine lines and wrinkles, reducing signs of aging.
- Customisable Results: Tailored to individual facial features and aesthetic goals.

Risks of Tear Trough Filler?
While tear trough filler treatments are generally safe, they do carry some risks, including:
Swelling and Bruising: This can happen occasionally but typically resolves within a few days.
Infection: Rare, but possible, if post-treatment care instructions are not followed.
Lumps and Bumps: Can occur but are often temporary and can be massaged out or dissolved if persistent.
Asymmetry: Rare but possible, and usually correctable with additional filler.
How Long Does It Last?
The longevity of tear trough filler results varies depending on the type of filler used and individual metabolic factors. On average, hyaluronic acid fillers in this area last between 18 to 24 months, but often longer. Factors such as the amount of filler injected, the area treated, and the individual’s lifestyle can influence the duration of the results. We will guide you on how to maintain your results.
Treatment Techniques?
Various techniques can be employed to achieve different enhancements in the under-eye area:
Linear Threading: Involves injecting the filler in a linear fashion to create volume and smoothness.
Microdroplet Technique: Involves injecting small amounts of filler for precise contouring and natural-looking results.
Fan Technique: A method used to distribute filler evenly and achieve a natural contour.
Each technique is chosen based on the patient’s unique under-eye anatomy and desired outcome, ensuring a customised and aesthetically pleasing result. Visit our London, Dublin, and Dubai clinics to discover the best technique for your needs.
