Tear Trough Filler treatment in the Wirral and Chester

What are Tear Troughs?

We use Tear trough filler for the hollowing under the eye area. The hollowing can result from the gradual loss of connective tissue and subcutaneous (under-skin) fatty tissue from the eye area. Furthermore, you can expect to see a loss of facial volume and tissue elasticity. As a result, this will effect the cheek area with a mild reduction in bone volume. These not only combine to create tear troughs. They also accentuate dark circles under the eyes, making people look tired and worried, even when they’re well-rested and happy.

How does it work?

The aim of treating the tear trough area is to rejuvenate the appearance and restore the volume back to its previous levels. This is achieved by optimally filling the tear trough area and making sure that there is no over-correction. For this reason, we will achieve the most natural end result possible and not create bulging under eyes. The tear trough filler work to: Reduce hollowness, dark circles, reduce areas of visible thin skin, shadowing, refresh the eye area and improve the appearance of wakefulness.

How long does it last?

Hyaluronic acid fillers last from 6 – 24 months around the eye region, depending on how each individual responds. However, some people degrade the filler faster than others. They are all fully biodegradable and will break down gradually over time. Resulting in absorption times differing with individuals. A good indicator will be how the area looks and feels is the best indicator of when a top-up is needed.

When can I see results?

Anti-wrinkle Botox injections take between 2 days and 2 weeks to take full effect. Dermal Fillers take 3-4 days to reach their maximum effect.

FAQ’s

What is the aftercare?

There is usually some swelling after having a tear trough rejuvenation and it is advisable to relax and minimise strenuous activity in the 24 hours after having the treatment. After treatment, anti-inflammatories (e.g. ibuprofen) can help to reduce the swelling and arnica gel can be massaged gently into the area. It is important to keep the area dry and clean and not manipulate the area too vigorously.

Do you do top up injections?

The maximum effect of the anti-wrinkle injections should be seen after two weeks. If after this time, you are not satisfied with the results, a follow up appointment can be made with your practitioner and if needed, a free “top-up” injection(s) can be given. Top ups are not normally required with Dermal Filler.

Will the treatments hurt?

The anti-wrinkle injections are administered using a small, thin needle. To further minimise the discomfort felt, your practitioner will change the needle between each area. Although the treatment is therefore not pain free, it is usually very well tolerated by all clients and most refer to it as being less painful that having their eyebrows waxed for instance. Before Dermal Fillers are injected a topical anaesthetic (numbing) cream is applied to the skin. The Dermal Fillers also contain some local anaesthetic. Both of these things help to minimise the discomfort experienced during the treatment.

Do I need to do anything specific before or after my treatment?

There is nothing that you need to do prior to the treatment. After the treatment there are a few “do’s and don’ts” – this will be fully explained to you by your practitioner and a written copy of our aftercare advice will be given to you at your appointment.
