What are Tear Trough Fillers?

A reduction in fatty tissue and skin/muscle elasticity is common in different areas of our faces as we get older. One such area is the nasojugal groove, also called a tear trough where a deep crease forms between your lower eyelid and upper cheek. In some cases, this area can appear darker, sunken and puffy. This gives you a tired appearance and makes you look older as your eyes seem sunken in. The good thing is there is something you can do about this without the need for surgery, tear trough fillers!

Minimally-Invasive Procedure to Reduce Tear Trough Depth

A tear trough filler is an injectable treatment that works to add volume underneath your eyes. When injected into the affected area, dermal fillers decrease the depth of the tear trough and increases fullness to restore a more youthful look.

Tear trough fillers typically contain hyaluronic acid. This is a gel-like substance the exists in your body naturally. Such fillers as Restylane and Juvéderm are relatively safe and less risky than having surgery to repair the tear trough.

There is virtually no downtime needed after the treatment. As with any dermal injectables, potential temporary side effects may include:

• Redness
• Swelling
• Bruising
• Injection pain

Benefits of Choosing Tear Trough Fillers

Even though the effects of tear trough fillers are only temporary and typically last about a year, they do provide an instantly revitalized under-eye area. You will have a more rested, bright-looking appearance under your eyes with increased plumpness that reverses any sunken shadows. There will be no more wasting money on products that fail to come through with their promises of correcting your tear troughs
