What is Tear Trough or Under Eye Filler?

Tear trough or under eye fillers are injectable treatments that are used under the eyes to add volume beneath the eyelids. The most common products used for tear trough or under eye fillers are typically made of hyaluronic acid, although other ingredients may be used. Hyaluronic acid naturally exists in your body as a gel-like substance. Hyaluronic acid decreases indentations like fine lines and wrinkles and increases fullness when injected into the skin.

After tear trough or under eye filler injections, you can expect decreased dark circles under the eyes, a more refreshed appearance, and less under eye swelling. Tear trough or under eye fillers are generally safe and are less invasive than surgery for tear troughs. Good candidates for tear trough or under eye filler:

• Don’t take medications that affect bleeding

• Are physically healthy

• Have thick, healthy skin

• Would like to diminish under eye dark circle appearance

• Suffer from mild to moderate under the eye hollowness.

• Are consistently asked if they are tired or got enough sleep by friends and family
