A lightweight dermal filler, such as Juvéderm™ Volbella, is injected into the tear trough to provide under-eye lift and fullness, reducing hollowness and brightening the area for a rejuvenated appearance. The benefits of tear trough filler treatment include:
Tear Trough Filler Treatment is suitable for those with dark under-eye shadows, sunken troughs, sagging, or hollow eyes that persist despite rest. It is ideal for individuals with deep hollow tear troughs, good skin quality, and overall good health. However, it is not recommended for those with under-eye pigmentation, prominent fat pads in the tear trough, thin skin, or medical conditions that could heighten the risk of complex side effects. Combining this treatment with cheek fillers can enhance support for the tear trough and improve aesthetic outcomes.
The actual procedure takes approximately 5 – 15 minutes to complete. Your appointment will usually be booked for 30-45 minutes to make sure there is plenty of time to discuss your medical history, aftercare instructions and to ask as many questions as you need.
The treatment is relatively painless to a minimal level of discomfort
The treatment can last for approximately 18 months.
All treatments include a 2-week review appointment to check the progress of your treatment and make sure you are happy with the results. Before and after photos are usually taken to see the progress made.
The effects of the treatment are immediate. This gives both yourself and Dr Yasmin a great opportunity to make sure you’re perfectly happy with the treatment and its results.
Common side effects of the tear trough filler treatment may include pain, swelling or bruising which can be expected to resolve itself after approximately 2 weeks.
