Tear trough filler treatment offers immediate improvement in the appearance of dark circles, undereye hollows, and volume loss, enhancing the overall contour of the periorbital region. By carefully addressing these concerns with hyaluronic acid-based fillers, this treatment provides natural, long-lasting results that seamlessly integrate with the patient’s facial anatomy. Maintenance treatments, typically recommended every 9 to 18 months, ensure sustained volume restoration and youthful vibrancy, while allowing for adjustments to accommodate age-related changes and evolving aesthetic goals.
Tear trough filler treatment, often referred to as undereye fillers or eye filler procedures, is a non-surgical solution designed to restore volume to the under-eye area, correcting dark circles and eye hollows. The treatment typically uses hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which are injected into the tear troughs—the hollowed areas beneath the eyes that can make individuals appear tired or aged.
As we age, volume loss in the face, especially in the delicate under-eye area, is a common concern. This results in sunken eyes, visible dark circles, and a fatigued appearance. Hyaluronic acid fillers, a soft tissue filler, are the most popular choice for this area, as they not only provide volume but also help to stimulate collagen production for a more youthful appearance.
The injections can treat under-eye hollows (tear troughs) and dark circles.

Each patient’s under-eye area is unique. During your consultation, our experienced injectors will assess your skin quality, facial anatomy, and volume loss to determine the best approach to your tear trough filler treatment. This evaluation includes a detailed review of anatomical structures, such as the suborbicularis oculi fat pad and the lid-cheek junction, to ensure precise filler placement. By tailoring the treatment to address specific concerns like under-eye hollows or dark circles, we aim to achieve natural, balanced, and youthful results. Our comprehensive approach prioritizes patient satisfaction and takes into account factors like the depth of injection and filler properties for optimal aesthetic outcomes.
Before starting treatment, we take before-and-after photos to document your results. This step allows us to monitor your progress and evaluate the impact of the tear trough treatment over time. By assessing changes in the under-eye area, including the lid-cheek junction and overall volume restoration, our injectors can refine their approach to ensure the best aesthetic outcomes.
During your treatment session, the filler is carefully injected into the area beneath the eyes, targeting the tear trough region with precision. Most treatments take around 30–45 minutes. Using advanced hyaluronic acid-based fillers, our injectors ensure proper depth and placement to address volume loss effectively. The procedure involves minimal discomfort, as a numbing cream is applied beforehand for a comfortable experience. Patients can expect immediate results, including a smoother lid-cheek junction, reduced shadows, and an overall rejuvenated appearance. This nonsurgical correction of eye hollows provides a refreshed, youthful look with minimal downtime.
The recovery time for this treatment is minimal, making it an ideal option for patients seeking a nonsurgical correction of under-eye concerns. Most patients can return to their normal daily activities immediately after the procedure. While mild swelling or bruising may occur, particularly around the periorbital region, these effects generally resolve within a few days. Applying an ice pack can help reduce swelling and enhance comfort post-treatment. This quick recovery, combined with the immediate improvement in the tear trough area, ensures a seamless integration into your daily routine.
The cost of tear trough filler treatment varies based on factors such as the amount of injectable filler required and the specific type of hyaluronic acid-based filler used. Pricing may also depend on the complexity of addressing volume loss and the desired outcomes in the tear trough or under-eye area. To receive a personalized quote tailored to your facial anatomy and treatment goals, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our expert medical professionals. This ensures a transparent and comprehensive approach to your aesthetic needs.
Results typically last from 9 to 18 months, depending on the type of hyaluronic acid filler used and individual factors such as metabolism and skin quality. Regular follow-up sessions are recommended to monitor the treatment area, including the tear trough and surrounding structures like the lid-cheek junction, ensuring long-lasting and natural results. Some patients may require additional touch-up treatments to maintain volume and address age-related changes in facial anatomy. A comprehensive treatment approach allows for consistent patient satisfaction and optimal outcomes over time.
Tear trough filler treatment may not be suitable for everyone. Key contraindications include active skin infections or inflammation in the under-eye area, which can interfere with healing or increase the risk of complications; pregnancy or breastfeeding, as cosmetic procedures like filler injections are not recommended during these periods; allergies to hyaluronic acid or other filler ingredients, requiring a review of medical history to ensure patient safety; a history of keloid scarring, which may increase the likelihood of adverse reactions and/or blood disorders or the use of anticoagulants; patients should consult their doctor about discontinuation of anticoagulants days before injection to minimize risks.
It is essential to disclose your full medical history during the consultation to ensure a safe and effective treatment tailored to your needs.

Tear trough filler treatment is a nonsurgical correction procedure using injectable dermal fillers, specifically designed to restore volume in the under-eye area. This treatment addresses tear trough hollows, eye hollows, and dark circles, which often contribute to a fatigued appearance. By targeting the tear trough region and lid-cheek junction with hyaluronic acid-based fillers, this cosmetic procedure provides natural results that enhance facial anatomy and skin quality. Dermal filler injections, particularly hyaluronic acid gels, are preferred for their ability to smooth the periorbital region and support youthful appearance through collagen stimulation and volume restoration.
Tear trough filler results typically last between 9 to 18 months, depending on factors such as the type of hyaluronic acid filler, cross-linking technology used, and individual metabolic rates. Advanced filler properties, such as optimal dermal filler rheology, allow for better adaptation to the under-eye area’s unique anatomical structures. Follow-up sessions are recommended to maintain aesthetic outcomes and address age-related changes, including upper cheek volume loss or periorbital rejuvenation needs.
When performed by licensed medical professionals with expertise in facial anatomy and nonsurgical aesthetic treatments, tear trough fillers are considered safe. Hyaluronic acid fillers, widely used for their biocompatibility, ensure patient satisfaction when injected at the proper depth. However, risks such as swelling, bruising, or filler migration can occur. More severe complications, including vascular occlusion or inadequate correction due to improper filler bolus placement, are rare but emphasize the importance of choosing experienced injectors familiar with a comprehensive treatment approach.
The tear trough filler procedure is minimally invasive and involves the use of numbing cream to enhance patient comfort. During the treatment session, the injector uses fine needles or cannulas to ensure precise placement within the periorbital region and orbital septum. While some patients may experience slight pressure, the use of an ice pack post-treatment helps alleviate discomfort and minimize bruising or swelling.
Good candidates for tear trough filler treatment are individuals with undereye hollows, dark circles, or a sunken appearance caused by loss of volume. Ideal patients typically exhibit good skin quality and realistic expectations for cosmetic procedures. During a personalized consultation, medical professionals assess anatomical structures, such as the suborbicularis oculi fat pad and skin thickness, while considering factors like medical history and contraindications, including the use of anticoagulants. A comprehensive approach ensures that the treatment is tailored to individual facial structures and goals.
Yes, tear trough filler treatment can be effectively combined with other dermal filler treatments or aesthetic procedures to enhance overall facial rejuvenation. For example, fillers for midface volume can support the under-eye area, addressing adjacent regions like the nasolabial folds. Skin treatments, such as laser resurfacing or microneedling, can complement the volumizing effects of fillers by improving skin texture and addressing pigmentation. An expert consensus approach ensures that a comprehensive treatment plan is developed to deliver optimal outcomes across the entire region.
Common side effects of tear trough filler injections include mild swelling, redness, or bruising around the injection site. These effects are temporary and can be managed with ice packs and proper aftercare. Rare complications, such as filler migration, prolonged edema, or vascular complications, are mitigated through precise injection techniques and a thorough review of anatomy. Medical professionals also consider patient-specific factors, such as anatomic abnormalities or previous actions taken in the treatment area, to minimize risks and ensure patient satisfaction.
