Ideal Candidate for Under Eye & Tear Trough Fillers
An ideal candidate for under-eye fillers is someone seeking a non-surgical solution to address concerns like hollowing, dark circles, or fine lines beneath the eyes. Here are the key points to consider for suitability:
Visible Concerns: Candidates typically experience volume loss in the tear trough area, leading to a sunken or tired appearance, persistent dark circles not caused by pigmentation, or fine lines that affect the under-eye smoothness.
Realistic Expectations: It's important that candidates have realistic expectations about what fillers can achieve. While they can significantly improve the under-eye area, they are not a permanent fix and may not completely eliminate all signs of aging. Patients should understand the temporary nature of fillers and that results may vary.
Medical History: A detailed medical history should be assessed to ensure the candidate is in good health and free from conditions such as bleeding disorders or severe allergies (especially to ingredients in the filler). Additionally, those with autoimmune diseases, chronic inflammation, or skin infections in the treatment area may not be suitable.
Skin Type and Elasticity: Candidates with good skin elasticity tend to see better results. The skin under the eyes is thin and delicate, so those with overly loose or excessively thin skin may need alternative treatments. Skin type is also important in determining the appropriate filler formulation and treatment approach.
Non-Surgical Solution Seekers: Ideal candidates are those looking for a minimally invasive option to improve the appearance of the area without undergoing surgery. Fillers provide a quick, effective solution with little downtime, making them appealing to individuals who prefer to avoid surgical intervention.
Consulting with a qualified professional will ensure the treatment plan is personalized, considering both aesthetic goals and medical suitability.
Under Eye Filler Pricing in Manhattan Beach
At Aesthetics on Highland, the pricing for under-eye (tear trough) fillers starts at $1000. However, the final cost may vary based on individual needs, as treatments are customized for each client. During consultation, our practitioners will assess your under-eye area and provide a personalized quote. In some cases, cheek filler may be necessary before under-eye filler, especially if there is significant volume loss or depression in the area.
Several factors affect pricing, including the number of syringes required and the type of filler used. We tailor each treatment to ensure you receive the best possible results, with a focus on restoring a natural, youthful appearance.
Ideal Candidate for Under Eye
& Tear Trough Fillers
How Do Tear Trough Fillers Work?
Tear trough fillers are non-surgical cosmetic treatments designed to improve the appearance of hollow or tired-looking eyes by restoring volume in the under-eye area. This area, known as the tear trough, often becomes more prominent with age due to volume loss, thinning skin, and reduced collagen production. The most commonly used substance in these fillers is hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring compound in the body known for its ability to attract and retain moisture.
The Science Behind Tear Trough Fillers
How Hyaluronic Acid Restores Volume and Retains Moisture
Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it ideal for hydrating and plumping the skin. With age, natural fat pads beneath the eyes shrink, and skin elasticity decreases. HA fillers restore volume in these areas by adding structural support.
The injected HA not only fills the hollowness but also stimulates collagen production over time, improving skin quality. HA's moisture-retaining properties keep the under-eye area hydrated, smoothing fine lines and reducing dark shadows.
Our Process of Injecting the Filler into the Tear Troughs
Consultation and Preparation
Before the procedure, the provider assesses the depth of the tear trough and skin texture to determine the right amount of filler needed.
Numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort.
Precise Injection Technique
A small amount of HA filler is injected directly into the tear trough using a needle or blunt-tipped cannula. The cannula technique is often preferred for safety, as it reduces the risk of bruising and hitting blood vessels.
The filler is injected deep into the tissue, right above the bone, to avoid lumpiness on the skin’s surface. The provider may gently massage the area to ensure even distribution.
Immediate and Natural Results
The results are often visible immediately after injection, with a smoother, fuller under-eye area that looks more youthful and refreshed.
Some swelling or minor bruising can occur but usually resolves within a few days. The full effect becomes evident as the filler settles and integrates with the surrounding tissue.
Why Hyaluronic Acid Is Preferred for Tear Trough Fillers
Biocompatibility: Since HA is naturally found in the body, it carries a low risk of allergic reactions.
Reversibility: If the patient is unsatisfied with the results, the filler can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
Long-lasting yet temporary: Results typically last 6-18 months, depending on the individual’s metabolism and lifestyle.
Tear trough fillers are a popular choice for people looking to reduce the appearance of under-eye hollows, dark circles, and tired-looking eyes without surgery. With hyaluronic acid's ability to restore volume, retain moisture, and integrate smoothly into the tissue, this treatment offers a quick and effective solution to rejuvenate the eye area.
What to Expect After Under-Eye Filler Treatment: Recovery Process and Post-Care
Immediate Effects and Possible Side Effects
You’ll see an immediate improvement in the under-eye area, though mild swelling and bruising are normal and may last for up to a week. Some people may experience minor redness or tenderness at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few days.
Post-Treatment Care Instructions for Best Results
Avoid strenuous activities or exercise for 24-48 hours, as increased blood flow can worsen swelling.
Avoid wearing makeup for at least 4 hours after treatment, though waiting 24 hours is recommended to minimize the risk of infection.
If you received filler in the cheeks along with the tear troughs, avoid sleeping on your sides for one week to prevent the filler from shifting. Sleeping with an airplane pillow helps during this time.
Call your provider immediately if you notice:
Rashes or skin irritation at the injection site.
Pain that does not improve with over-the-counter pain relief like Tylenol.
Discoloration (such as grey, white, or black patches) that doesn’t look like a bruise, as this could indicate a complication.
Final Results and Follow-Up
The filler will take up to 2 weeks to fully settle and integrate into the tissue, though you’ll notice an improvement immediately after treatment. We will schedule a follow-up appointment if needed to assess the results and make any necessary adjustments. Most patients enjoy a refreshed, youthful appearance lasting 12-36 months, depending on individual metabolism and lifestyle.
Long-lasting Results
Under-eye fillers with hyaluronic acid are a great way to achieve a refreshed, youthful look that lasts. At Aesthetics on Highland in Manhattan Beach, most patients enjoy results that last 1 to 3 years, though this can vary based on factors like metabolism, lifestyle, and the type of filler used.
While the results are long-lasting, touch-up treatments can help keep your under-eye area looking smooth and bright. Our team will create a personalized plan to maintain your results over time, ensuring your eyes stay refreshed without compromising your natural expressions.
1. Can under-eye fillers help with bags under the eyes?
Yes, under-eye fillers can help reduce the appearance of bags, hollows, and dark circles caused by volume loss. By filling in the tear trough area with hyaluronic acid fillers, the transition between the under-eye area and the cheeks becomes smoother, minimizing puffiness and giving the eyes a more refreshed look. However, if bags are due to excess fat or severe skin laxity, other treatments such as surgery or skin-tightening procedures such as the Morpheus 8 Prime, may be more appropriate.
2. Are there any potential side effects or risks associated with under-eye fillers?
While under-eye fillers are generally safe when administered by experienced providers, there are some potential side effects and risks, including:
Swelling and bruising at the injection site
Redness or tenderness
Lumps or unevenness, which may require massaging or adjustment
Discoloration (Tyndall effect) if the filler is placed too close to the surface
Rare but serious complications, such as vascular occlusion (blocked blood flow), which can cause skin discoloration
Our providers take every precaution to minimize these risks and will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
3. Can under-eye fillers be combined with other cosmetic treatments?
Yes! Under-eye fillers can be combined with other cosmetic treatments to enhance overall results. Popular combinations include:
Botox for smoothing crow’s feet and fine lines around the eyes
Microneedling or laser treatments to improve skin texture and tone
Chemical peels to address dark circles or pigmentation issues
We’ll develop a custom treatment plan tailored to your goals, ensuring each procedure complements the other.
4. Are there any complimentary treatments that can enhance the results of under-eye fillers?
Yes, certain treatments can amplify the benefits of under-eye fillers, including:
Radiofrequency to improve skin elasticity
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) injections to boost collagen production and enhance skin health
Hydrating facials or eye creams formulated with hyaluronic acid to keep the area plump and moisturized
5. How many syringes of filler will I need?
The amount of filler needed depends on the severity of hollowness or volume loss. Most patients require 1 to 2 syringes for both eyes, but this can vary based on individual anatomy and goals. Your provider will determine the right amount during your consultation to ensure natural, balanced results without overfilling.
