tear trough

What Is 'Tear Trough'?

'Tear Trough' refers to the area under the eyes which can have a sunken appearance or the presence of underbags. This appearance is due to the natural ageing process which involves thinning of skin and fat and loss of bone structure around the eye.

How Do We Treat Tear Troughs?

Tear troughs are treated by injecting a low density dermal filler called Juvederm Volbella into the under-eye area. This will improve the 'tired look' and rejuvenate the area resulting in fresh looking eyes.

    The results can start to be seen immediately after the treatment, but it can be up to two weeks before the final result is visible.
