Benefits & Results
How does tear trough filler work?
BalaBala Laser Clinic uses a specialised tear trough dermal filler that is especially made to treat dark circles under eyes. This tear trough filler contains a unique formula of essential nutrients that helps to brighten and nourish the under eye area. The hyaluronic acid in the dermal filler helps fill the hollowness under the eye, helping to improve the appearance of dark circles.
Causes of Dark Circles
Dark circles under eyes can be caused by a range of factors - including age, fatigue, allergies, genetics and excess sun exposure. A common cause of dark circles is the hollowness or depression in the tear trough area, causing the elevated area around the depression to cast a shadow. By filling this area with under eye filler, it can help to remove the shadow that creates the appearance of dark circles.
For dark circles that are caused by pigmentation, we recommend Fotona Smooth Eye Laser treatment.
How long does tear trough fillers last?
Tear trough fillers are long lasting. After your first tear trough filler treatment, most patients will see results for around nine to twelve months. With repeated treatments, it is possible to prolong the duration of these results. This is because
When patients do a second under eye filler treatment within a twelve month period, they usually can wait for a longer interval after this second treatment. This is because dermal filler placed on top of previous filler tends to last longer.
Am I a suitable candidate for tear trough fillers?
A suitable candidate for tear trough filler must have sufficient hollowness under the eyes. This allows the under eye filler to sit well within the tear trough.
While tear trough fillers are an effective treatment for dark circles, they are not suitable for everyone. Those with large under-eye fat pads may not be suitable for tear trough filler. Similarly, those with a very tight under-eye crease where the dark circle resides may not see much improvement from tear trough fillers.
Common Questions
How long does it take to see results?
Results from tear trough filler are often noticeable immediately after the treatment, although there may be some initial swelling. The full and final results can be seen once any swelling subsides, typically within a few days to a few weeks after your treatment.
Can tear trough filler be used in combination with other facial fillers?
Yes, tear trough filler can be used in combination with other facial fillers to address multiple concerns and achieve a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
What post-treatment after care do I need to do?
After getting tear trough filler, it's important to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and certain medications that may increase the risk of bruising. Applying cold compresses and avoiding massaging the treated area can also help optimise your results.
Can tear trough filler be dissolved if I'm not satisfied with the results?
Tear trough filler can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you're not satisfied with the results or if there are complications. It's important to discuss any concerns with your injector, who can advise on the appropriate course of action.
