Also referred to as ‘under eye fillers’, tear trough fillers can be administered to help improve the appearance of tired looking eyes.

Tear trough fillers are an injectable treatment that is applied with a very fine needle, taking great care of this sensitive facial feature. Dermal fillers are used in this procedure, which works well with the underlying tissues of the skin. This treatment aims to add volume to eyes that have developed a hollow area from the processes involved in ageing. The results can be seen very quickly, producing a sharper and more youthful look to the upper face.

When ageing eyes have caused a person to feel their appearance is presenting a worn and disinterested look, tear trough fillers may be sought. The ageing process affects us all, although the rate at which it develops and the severity to which it appears can vary with each individual. When ageing affects the eyes, thinning skin and diminished fatty tissues can cause a hollowed look beneath the eye, known as tear trough hollows or shadows. This condition can also be accompanied by fine lines, eye bags and dark circles. Genetics will often determine the way in which the signs of ageing will form and where on the face these concerns will be most prominent. However, the lifestyle choices that each person makes (for example: smoking, consuming alcohol, regular sun exposure and eating a poor diet) are likely to affect the rate at which ageing progresses, often leading to a person looking older than they really are.
