Our effective tear trough treatment uses dermal fillers to replace lost volume and give a refreshed appearance.
The tear trough is the sunken area between the lower eyelid and upper cheek. A deep tear trough can cause the appearance of dark circles and/ or sagging skin to become more prominent making you look tired and aged.
Book a consultation at our clinic in Stockport, Cheshire, to discuss your personalised treatment plan.
Please note, all information included above and on this page is general advice and may vary depending on personal circumstances. Your exact treatment plan and options will be discussed during your consultation.
After a consultation to determine if this is the best treatment option for you, the tear trough area is thoroughly cleaned to reduce the risk of infection. Our qualified practitioner will then inject dermal filler into the tear trough area to plump the skin under your eyes.
Ageing is the number one culprit that leads to volume loss and tissue laxity in the lower eyelids, causing the tear trough to be more prominent; however, this can occur at any age.
If you complain of hollow and/ or tired-looking eyes, and dark circles and would like more plumpness in this area, our tear trough treatment could be suitable for you. A consultation is essential before any tear trough treatment as not everyone is a suitable candidate.
Tear trough fillers offer a range of benefits for those looking to rejuvenate their under-eye area.
By using dermal fillers to replace lost volume, this treatment effectively reduces the appearance of dark circles and hollows, creating a more youthful and refreshed look. The fillers smooth out the transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek, minimizing the appearance of bags and sagging skin.
This non-surgical procedure provides immediate results with minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for enhancing your facial appearance. Additionally, tear trough fillers can improve skin texture and elasticity, giving you a brighter and more awake appearance, ultimately boosting your confidence.
