Tear Trough Rejuvenation
UNDER EYE FILLER
Vibrant and refreshed looking eyes for the win.
Do your eyes look tired all the time despite good sleep?
Dark circles and hollows under the eyes can make us look worn out and exhausted despite being well-rested.
For many people, the dark area under the eye is caused due to two things- hollowness or pigmentation or a mixture of both. It can result from genetics or the natural ageing process and stress.
Hollowness can be corrected using under eye filler, which will help to smooth and plump the hollow area. However, it will not affect pigmentation. Pigmentation can be treated using medical-grade skin creams or Sunekos. The combination of these treatments helps to give the eyes a bright and refreshed appearance.

How does it work?
The appointment begins with a thorough consultation and assessment of the under eye area to deem whether you are suitable for tear trough filler. The consultation and the treatment will be performed by Dr Arun.
During the treatment, dermal filler is deposited into the skin under the eye using a special piece of equipment called a cannula. As the under-eye skin is the thinnest skin on the face, we use a particular dermal filler - Teosyal Redensity II - to achieve an optimal result and ensure that the filler is evenly distributed and undetectable. The dermal filler brings hydration to the skin and further volumises the under eye hollow.
This treatment can be performed alongside many of our other treatments, may sometimes be more convenient to do so, if you had been recommended another treatment to compliment your features. Sometimes we combine the tear trough filler treatment with cheek filler if required to build up support beneath this area. We can also combine the treatment with anti wrinkle injections to the crows feet area and brow area to reduce the appearance of crows feet lines and also gently lift the brow. The combination of these treatments can result in a drastic improvement to the whole eye area. If you have both hollowing and hyperpigmentation however, we would have to address the hollowing under the eyes, before we can address the skin quality and hyperpigmentation with Sunekos, two weeks later, or with medical grade skin products.
Tear Trough filler, is the absolute favourite treatment for Dr Arun, he enjoys this treatment because of how transformative on the overall appearance of the face it is, and of how complex and challenging this can sometimes be. Tear trough filler is considered to be the hardest treatment and most practitioners shy away from it.

If you're aiming to reduce the visibility of tear troughs, schedule a consultation with Dr Arun, who can provide the most suitable treatment plan. Dark circles and hollows under the eyes can make an individual appear fatigued and older. Whether your needs include medical-grade skincare, Sunekos, or tear trough filler, Dr Arun can provide the best advice. Tear trough filler uses hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally present in the body, to fill in the hollows, thereby giving a more youthful appearance. We use a specific dermal filler - Teosyal Redensity II.
The procedure is simple and swift, with most individuals experiencing negligible downtime.

Under-eye fillers won't address pigmentation issues. If pigmentation is a concern, it will be identified during your consultation. We can then recommend specific skin creams, including prescribed Obagi products, which will be delivered to you. Alternatively, if you're a suitable candidate for Sunekos, we can discuss its benefits in more detail during the consultation.

Tear trough filler is a procedure designed for comfort, aiming to be as painless as possible. It utilises a tool known as a cannula, which is a blunt, flexible tube that gently navigates beneath the skin. This method ensures minimal tissue trauma. Most individuals find the process extremely tolerable, often unaware that the cannula is even beneath their skin.
