WHAT ARE TEAR TROUGH FILLERS?

A popular cosmetic choice for rejuvenating tired-looking eyes is tear trough filler treatment. This procedure involves injecting a gel-like substance into targeted areas around the eyes to restore lost volume due to the natural aging process. The outcome is a more youthful and radiant appearance, as wrinkles and lines are reduced, resulting in smoother and brighter skin.

Are tear trough fillers safe?

Tear trough fillers are a relatively safe choice and are less invasive when compared to tear trough procedures like fat grafting and fat repositioning.

The Juvederm Volbella filler is the sole brand authorized by the FDA to increase the volume of Sunken under-eye areas in people who are 22 years old or older. Nonetheless, just because it is approved does not guarantee that the procedure is entirely risk-free.

Currently, the FDA does not approve the use of needle-free devices for injecting dermal fillers. As a result, it is crucial to ask about the specific type of filler being used and to seek treatment from a trusted doctor instead of relying on a medical spa or aesthetician.

Tear trough fillers create temporary results that usually endure for about a year. In order to maintain these long-term effects, it is necessary to undergo periodic treatments.

• Desire to minimize the appearance of dark circles underneath the eyes.
• Their friends and family often observe their eyes appearing tired and ask if they have been getting enough sleep.
• Not currently using any medications that affect bleeding.

How does a tear trough filler procedure work?

Before the treatment, your doctor will assess the condition of your tear troughs and skin. They will ask you about what you hope to achieve from the filler injections. They will also inquire about your medical history and any medications you are currently taking.

It is important to have a discussion about your financial expectations. This conversation will help you understand how many injections you can afford based on your budget, and how long these injections will last.

The procedure involves injecting small amounts of hyaluronic acid fillers into the skin underneath your eyes.

Before beginning the process of injecting, the medical professional will clean your skin and may apply ice packs or a numbing cream beneath your lower eyelid to alleviate any potential discomfort. Then, the injections are administered, and afterwards, the professional will gently massage the treated area to ensure the filler is evenly distributed.

Tear trough fillers do not require surgery, but if the under-eye bags are very prominent or there is sagging skin, corrective surgery may be recommended.

What details should I know about the care needed after treatment and how long it will take to recover?

After the process is finished, you are able to go back to your house. It is normal to have swelling, bruising, and redness, but these effects generally improve within 48 to 72 hours.

You will immediately notice a more noticeable change under your eyelids. However, it may take 1 to 2 weeks to see the full result. It is important to follow the aftercare instructions, which typically include the following guidelines:

• Avoid participating in vigorous physical activity for a duration of 24 to 48 hours.
• Apply ice during the first 48 hours.
• Avoid sleeping face down.
• Gently use your fingers to massage any rough areas.

When will I see the results?

Once you undergo the treatment, you will quickly observe an increase in volume as the filler replenishes it. As time passes, the hyaluronic acid filler will further absorb moisture and create a more even appearance. To achieve optimal results, we recommend scheduling a follow-up appointment three weeks after the treatment.
