Tear Trough Fillers
Tear trough is the area below your eye where dark circles can appear. Dark circles are caused by the hollowing of the tear trough which results in shadows. Dark shadows in this area can make you look tired and aged.
Dermal filler tear trough treatment is a great way to help rejuvenate tired eyes by smoothing out shadows and eye bags making you look well rested and youthful.
Dermal filler for tear troughs works by targeting the that run from the nose to the area. This area of depression can make your eyes look sunken and cast unflattering shadows which are known as dark circles. These dark circles in this area gradually become more noticeable as the skin begins to sag and becomes thinner with age. Dermal filler injected into this area will help to restore the volume lost in this area as well as thicken the skin which will improve the appearance of any dark circles.
