Dermal fillers are used in the tear trough or orbital area to correct hollowness, dark circles and give an overall rejuvenated appearance to the eyes.  

As we age, the fat pads under the skin begin to flatten and create volume loss, this can often result in hollowness under the eyes and dark circles. The under eye filler is injected into the trough area, under the skin, to restore volume, smooth out the area and the dark circles.

Dermal filler in the tear trough or orbital region can help with the following concerns: 

+ Under eye hollowing (sunken eyes)

+ Dark circles 

+ Smoothing fine lines & wrinkles under the eye area

In some cases such as severe under eye bags, excess skin sagging & laxity and under eye swelling tear trough treatment with dermal fillers is contraindicated and a surgical referral may be made.

Dermal fillers are a short non-surgical procedure which may take up to 60 minutes, administered through injection by a trained medical professional. There may be some minor discomfort during the administration of dermal fillers, discomfort varies from one individual to another, depending on the product being used and the area being treated. We have a number of options for numbing or other agents to help with any discomfort.
