What is Tear Trough Filler Treatment?
Tear trough filler treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the under-eye area. The tear trough is the area between the lower eyelid and the upper cheek.
As we age, this area can become hollow, leading to a tired and aged appearance. Tear trough fillers, typically made of hyaluronic acid, are injected into this area to restore volume, reduce dark circles, and smooth out the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek.
Benefits of Tear Trough Filler Treatment
- Immediate Results: Noticeable improvement in the under-eye area right after the treatment.
- Non-Surgical: A minimally invasive alternative to surgical procedures, with less risk and downtime.
- Youthful Appearance: Restores volume, reduces dark circles, and smooths out hollows, making you look refreshed and youthful.
- Quick Procedure: The treatment usually takes less than an hour, allowing you to return to your daily activities quickly.
- Long-Lasting: Results can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.
- Boosts Confidence: Enhances your overall facial appearance, boosting your self-esteem and confidence.
PREPARATION FOR TEAR TROUGH FILLER TREATMENT
Consultation: Schedule a consultation with our experienced practitioners to discuss your goals, medical history, and determine if you are a suitable candidate.
Limit Alcohol and Smoking: Avoid alcohol and smoking for a few days prior to the procedure to reduce the risk of bruising and aid in faster healing.
Hydrate: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment to ensure your skin is well-hydrated.
Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from taking aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood-thinning medications and supplements for at least a week before the treatment.
Topical Anesthetics: Some patients may prefer to use a topical anesthetic cream before the procedure to minimise discomfort. Discuss this option during your consultation.
Aftercare and Recovery
Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent filler displacement.
Avoid Strenuous Activity: Avoid heavy exercise, saunas, and hot showers for 48 hours post-treatment to reduce the risk of complications.
Stay Hydrated: Continue to drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing.
Follow-Up Appointments: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments with your practitioner to monitor the results and address any concerns.
