What Is Tear Trough Filler?

Tear trough filler treats the tear trough — the groove that runs from the inner corner of the eye towards the cheek. When it deepens — through genetics or age-related volume loss — it can cast a shadow that makes people look tired, even when they are well rested.

Tear trough filler uses a soft hyaluronic acid gel, placed carefully beneath the under-eye area, to soften the hollow and reduce that shadow.

Is It Right for You?

This is one of the areas where honest assessment matters most. Tear trough filler can work well for hollowing, but it is not right for everyone. Dark circles caused by pigmentation or visible blood vessels, significant puffiness or eye bags, and very thin or lax skin may not improve with filler — and filler can sometimes make puffiness worse.

If filler isn’t the right answer for you, we may suggest alternatives such as polynucleotides or a skin-quality approach.

Benefits

  • Softens under-eye hollows and shadows
  • A fresher, more rested appearance
  • Subtle, natural-looking result
  • Reversible if needed
The Process

Your Treatment Journey

Consultation

We carefully assess the cause of your under-eye concern — hollowing, pigmentation, puffiness or skin quality — and confirm whether filler is genuinely suitable.

Treatment

A small amount of soft filler is placed slowly, usually with a blunt cannula to reduce bruising risk. Treatment takes 30–45 minutes.

Recovery

Mild swelling and possible bruising for several days. Sleep slightly elevated the first night, and avoid exercise, alcohol and rubbing the area for 24–48 hours.

Results & Aftercare

Improvement is visible immediately and settles over about two weeks. We offer a review to check the result.

Maintenance

Tear trough filler often lasts 9–12 months or longer, as the area moves little. Any top-up is your choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this get rid of my dark circles?

It can soften shadows caused by hollowing, but won't change darkness from pigmentation or blood vessels. We assess this first.

How long does it last?

Often 9–12 months, and sometimes longer.

How much filler is used?

Usually a small amount — often well under 1ml in total. Less is more in this area.

Is the under-eye area safe to treat?

It is a delicate area that requires careful technique and medical training. Risks are discussed in full at consultation.

I have eye bags — can filler help?

Often not. Filler can sometimes make puffiness more noticeable. We'll give you an honest view.

Is it reversible?

Yes, hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved if needed.
