Tear trough filler
The tear trough is a hollow area that is located directly under the eye.
The area starts at the inner corner of the eye and runs diagonally down towards the cheek and outer eye. If the hollow is deep set it can appear darker or give the appearance of a shadow under the eye.
Hollow tear trough can be hereditary, caused by excess weight loss, medication, or as part of the natural aging process. The dark appearance can cause the face to look tired and older.
A hollow tear trough can be smoothed out by strategically injecting dermal filler to restore volume. Tear trough filler is injected through the cheek using a cannula to reduce minimise the risk of bruising or swelling.
How long will it last?
Tear trough filler will last on average 12 months but may need 1-2 treatments to fully correct.
Will it hurt?

Will there be any downtime?
There is no downtime, you will be fine to go straight back to work after treatment.
