Tear Trough Fillers

EXPLORE

Skin Sense GP Clinic offers the tear trough dermal filler treatment to help improve concerns with eye bags, dark circles, sunken and tired looking eyes.

The new revolutionary ‘tear trough treatment’ can completely transform a patients face from tired and sunken to looking bright, refreshed and awake.

The treatment works on the depressions that run from the nose and around the under-eye area which becomes more noticeable as the skin sags and becomes thinner with age. As we age, fat can accumulate under the eyes which then creates what is commonly known as “eye bags”. While the surgical removal of eye bags gets rid of the fatty tissue, it doesn’t conceal the dark circles. The tear trough dermal filler treatment will not only improve the depression, it will also help to thicken the skin resulting in the reduction of the visible dark blood vessel colour.


Filler treatments are not generally covered by insurance when used for cosmetic purposes. Check with your insurance carrier for coverage details.

The results are immediate and last up to 12 months. As the results are relatively temporary, adjustments can be made as your face changes over time to ensure you always retain a natural look.

Topical anaesthetic will be applied for 20-30 minutes prior the treatment for additional comfort. You should eat and drink a lot of water before the procedure. Immediately after the treatment the treated area(s) will be quite red and mildly swollen. Patients may experience some swelling and mild discomfort in the treated area following their treatment and this may last up to 3 days.

Dermal filler is slowly injected using a fine needle, which helps prevent risks of puncture blood vessels that cause bruising, or risk of injecting into blood vessels, in small amounts and in precise locations into your skin so that there is total control over the procedure. The doctor will then massage the area for a smooth result. During the procedure, you are fully awake. You hold a mirror and are in complete control of the procedure”™s results. You should avoid touching or applying make up on the treated area for 6 hours in order to prevent infection. Specific post treatment instructions will be discussed with you by our Clinician on the day of treatment
