What are Tear Troughs?
The Tear Trough is the area of thin darkened skin located under the eye and above the cheek. This area is what most people associate with “eye bags”, the tired, puffyness under the eyes that makes you look tired and sleep deprived.
As we age, facial fat naturally decreases in this area leading to a hollow, indented look. Darkening of the skin can also occur which further adds a shadowing effect
How do we treat tear troughs?
The most immediate and effective treatment to reduce the appearance of deep tear troughs is a Hyluronic Acid based Dermal Filler injection.
Dermal filler will replace the lost volume underneath the area to correct the hollowness and allow light to shine on the area, giving the appearance of fullness!
Our filler of choice for this purpose is Juvederm Volbella.
Juvederm Volbella does not draw a significant amount of water after the injection so what you see is what you get.
The filler is soft and well suited to for the tear trough area.
Juvederm Volbella lasts 9-12 months, maximizing the amount of time you can enjoy the results.
Most importantly, Juvederm Volbella does not produce a TYNDALL EFFECT.
The Tyndall Effect occurs when dermal filler injected superficially produces a blue-ish tint through the skin.
How do we treat dark discoloration under the eye?
We use a PRP or Platelet Rich Plasma injection directly into the discolored areas.
PRP uses the growth factors found in your own blood to rejuvenate tissue. We have found this method to be effective in reducing under eye darkness in some of our patients, especially when used with Microneedling.
