Tear Trough Filler Solihull

At your consultation, we will take a medical history and discuss your areas of concern. Your under-eye area, skin quality and facial structure will be assessed. Sometimes we may advise a combination of treatments to achieve the result you are looking for.

Yes. Within two weeks after your treatment, we may invite you back for a check-up to make sure you are comfortable and not experiencing any problems.

You may see an improvement immediately after treatment. However, swelling and bruising can occur, and the final result is usually best assessed after around 2–3 weeks once the area has settled.

Under-eye filler can feel mildly to moderately uncomfortable because the area is delicate. Treatment is usually quick, and local anaesthetic or comfort measures may be discussed where appropriate.

You may be suitable if your concern is mainly under-eye hollowing or shadowing caused by volume loss. You may not be suitable if puffiness, eye bags, loose skin or fluid retention are the main issues.

Tear trough filler may help dark circles caused by hollowing and shadowing. It may not improve pigmentation, thin skin, vascular discolouration or medical causes of dark circles.

In unsuitable patients, filler may make puffiness or under-eye bags look worse. This is why careful assessment is essential before treatment.

No. Tear trough filler treats the under-eye hollow directly. Cheek filler restores mid-face support and may sometimes improve the under-eye area indirectly.

Some hyaluronic acid tear trough fillers can be dissolved using a specific injectable enzyme where clinically appropriate. This depends on the filler type, treatment area and assessment.

No. Most commonly used hyaluronic acid tear trough fillers are temporary and gradually break down over time.

Most patients return to normal daily activities after treatment, although mild swelling, redness or bruising may be visible.

You may be advised to avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, excessive heat, saunas, steam rooms and rubbing the treated area for a short period after treatment.

Best results are usually seen after 2–3 weeks, once swelling has settled and the filler has integrated naturally.

Treatment may not be suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an active infection, significant under-eye bags, fluid retention, certain medical conditions or a history that makes filler treatment inappropriate.

Contact the clinic immediately if you experience severe pain, unusual skin discolouration, vision disturbance, persistent numbness, signs of infection or symptoms that concern you.
