Tear Trough Filler
This article was medically reviewed by Dr. Okan Morkoç
Tear trough filler is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to address dark circles, hollowing, and under-eye bags that can make the face appear tired and aged. The tear trough is the area between the lower eyelid and the upper cheek, where volume loss and thinning skin can create a shadowed, sunken appearance. Tear trough fillers typically use hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin that attracts moisture and adds volume. This treatment provides an immediate rejuvenation effect by filling in the hollow area, reducing the appearance of dark circles, and delivering a refreshed, youthful look. It is a popular choice for those seeking subtle yet effective improvements without undergoing invasive surgery.
How Does Tear Trough Filler Work?
The tear trough filler treatment involves the injection of a soft hyaluronic acid-based filler into the delicate under-eye area. The filler adds volume, hydrates the skin, and smooths the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. The procedure is performed using a fine needle or a cannula technique, which minimizes the risk of bruising and enhances precision. The entire treatment typically takes 20-30 minutes, with immediate results and minimal downtime. Depending on the type of filler used, the effects can last from 6 to 12 months, offering a long-lasting solution for under-eye rejuvenation.
