Filler tear trough

A tear trough filler is an aesthetic treatment done to the face. Fillers can be applied to various places on the face, including the tear trough or tear through. This is a gully that runs from the corner of your inner eye toward (and sometimes across) the cheek.

Therefore, the possibilities of fillers to plump up the lips are numerous. For example, you can use them to improve the proportions of your lips, to create more symmetry or to better define the cupid arch.

What is a tear trough filler?

  • Let's start by clarifying what a filler is. Most fillers consist of Hyaluronic Acid, a substance native to the body that provides hydrated skin and restores skin volume to the treated area. That substance is then injected into the skin.
  • There are, of course, different types of fillers. A tear trough filler is a specific type of filler to apply in the region of the tear trough.
  • A unique property of the tear trough filler is that it is very liquid. This high liquidity is important to prevent clumping. At Sarasin, we use only A-brand fillers with superior, surgical quality. These quality fillers combined with specialized doctors give you the best guarantee of a beautiful result.

When do you opt for tear trough filler treatment?

  • Some think filler treatments are only for "older people. The truth is that anyone can benefit from fillers. Especially for tear trough filler treatment, age is not the deciding factor.
  • Bags, circles and hollows under the eyes are problems that do not only occur in people of age. Younger people can also suffer from such ailments. Definitely don't let your age stop you from opting for filler treatment!
  • The older you get , the more problems occur at the level of the tear trough. This is because your skin produces less collagen and is also less elastic. The skin then sags a bit and soon there are circles under the eyes or the sagging skin casts a shadow under the eyes.

How often should you repeat the treatment?

  • Treatment with filler has been scientifically proven to be very effective in eliminating under-eye circles. It also helps reduce puffiness and gets rid of blood vessels showing through.
  • You could almost say it is a panacea to address a tired look. One lesser feature of the filler is that while it brings you one step closer to eternal youth, it does not stay forever.
  • Such a tear trough filler works for about 6 months. That's because fillers are made up of a body's own substance. This is eventually broken down by the body. Thus, a tear trough filler treatment must be repeated after an interval of about six months.

Filler tear trough: why?

It was briefly mentioned earlier: tear trough fillers can help eliminate dark circles, bags and hollows under the eyes. In fact, these cause us to look older and more tired.

Therefore, treatment with fillers at the level of your tear troughs can give you a fresh look. After the treatment, you will once again look more youthful and vibrant.

Causes of dark circles, puffiness and volume loss

  • To describe the effect of fillers, it is necessary to understand where those much-hated dark circles, puffiness and hollows come from. The cause is not one-sided. Research shows that the cause of changes in the region of the tear trough can vary.
  • For example, dark circles can be caused by thinner and less elastic skin, hyperpigmentation or excessive sun exposure. In addition, stress, smoking, alcohol, pronounced cheekbones, your skin tone and vitamin deficiency could also contribute to a deeper-looking tear trough.

tear trough fillers to the rescue

For every problem there is a solution. This is no different for the above (age-related) ailments. Because we know their cause, it is easier to provide a solution.

Fillers are able to eliminate such imperfections. On top of that, such a filler treatment helps to achieve a natural-looking youthful skin. Below, we explain why fillers are such a good solution.

Bags and circles under the eyes

Puffiness and dark circles, no one likes them. Although they were briefly trendy were, you'd probably rather lose them than have them. This is especially true if they are permanently present on your face.

You cannot get rid of stubborn puffiness, even though you invariably smear eye creams on the sensitive skin under the eyes. Fillers, on the other hand, are able to address such a problem. That's because of the unique action of the Hyaluronic Acid filler.

Applying Hyaluronic Acid to the tear trough will address any loss of volume. This is possible because Hyaluronic Acid creates volume in the skin. On top of that, the Hyaluronic Acid filler provides extra hydration, making your face look healthy and radiant again .

Cavities under the eyes

Cavities under the eyes can also be eliminated with filler in the tear trough. The problem with these cavities is a lack of volume (due to aging, weight loss...). Above you already read that Hyaluronic Acid offers the perfect solution for this.

By applying the filler in the skin under the eyes, you lift the particle that lost volume back up. This will also eliminate the shadow effect created by the hollow.

Limitations of filler in the tear trough

While under-eye fillers can address a lot of problems and ailments, they also can't address everything. Signs of fatigue can make them disappear like snow in the sun.

In contrast, a decrease in collagen production also causes other aging ailments. These include crow's feet and fat pockets under the eyes. Fillers will not provide a structural solution for these.

In the case of crow's feet muscle relaxants (such as Botox) offer solutions. In the case of fat pockets under the eyes, you can opt for surgical eyelid surgery.

Treatment

Now that you have a good understanding of what a tear trough filler treatment entails, it is time to explain how such a treatment works. That way, you know well what to expect once you opt for tear trough filler treatment.
