Tear Trough Treatment
Under-eye concerns like dark circles, hollowness, and shadowing can appear due to genetics, aging, or lifestyle factors — often making you look tired or older than you feel.
Tear Trough Rejuvenation
At Face Up Skin Studio, we offer advanced tear trough treatments using both dermal fillers and bio-stimulators to restore volume, brighten dark circles, and refresh tired-looking eyes — with subtle, natural-looking results tailored to your unique anatomy.
At our studio in Walthamstow, we address these concerns using two expertly applied options:
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers – to instantly restore volume, lift shadowing, and soften the appearance of under-eye hollows.
- Bio-Stimulators (such as Polynucleotides or PRF) – to improve skin quality, stimulate collagen production, and gradually brighten the area over time.
These treatments are carefully chosen during consultation based on your skin type, anatomy, and goals.
Additional Information
- Restore Volume Under the Eyes – Fillers lift and contour the tear trough, reducing hollowness and shadowing.
- Reduce Dark Circles – Bio-stimulators regenerate tired skin and improve microcirculation.
- Instant and Progressive Options – Immediate lift with fillers, or gradual brightening with regenerative therapy.
- Customised to You – Tailored combinations based on your skin tone, tissue depth, and ageing concerns.
- Non-Surgical & Natural-Looking – A refreshed look without invasive procedures or downtime.
Under-Eye Hollowness or Volume Loss
HA fillers restore lost volume under the eyes, gently supporting the skin and smoothing the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek — reducing that “tired” or sunken look.
Genetic or Lifestyle-Related Dark Circles
For those with thin skin, pigmentation, or poor circulation, bio-stimulators (like polynucleotides or platelet-rich fibrin) offer a more regenerative solution, improving skin tone and texture from within.
Fine Lines and Skin Crepiness
Tear trough treatments can also help reduce fine lines and improve skin firmness in the delicate under-eye zone, especially when paired with complementary treatments like microneedling or mesotherapy.
You may see immediate improvement with hyaluronic acid fillers — including a smoother contour and reduced hollowness. Results can last 9 to 12 months, depending on your metabolism and product used.
Bio-stimulators provide a gradual, cumulative effect, with visible improvement in skin tone, firmness, and brightness after 2–4 treatments spaced 3–4 weeks apart.
Both options offer subtle, refined enhancements without changing your natural expressions.
Avoid Touching or Massaging the Area
Do not rub, press, or apply pressure around the under-eye area for at least 24–48 hours to prevent displacement of filler or irritation of the treated zone.
Stay Upright for the First Few Hours
Avoid lying flat or sleeping face-down immediately after treatment. Keeping your head elevated helps reduce swelling and aids in product integration.
No Makeup or Skincare Around the Eyes for 12–24 Hours
Refrain from applying makeup, retinol, or active serums near the eyes to minimise the risk of infection and allow the skin to recover.
Avoid Heat, Alcohol, and Intense Exercise for 48 Hours
Saunas, steam rooms, hot showers, alcohol, and vigorous activity can increase blood flow and swelling. Give your skin time to settle.
Use Cold Compresses if Needed
Gently apply a cold compress (not ice directly) to help manage swelling or mild bruising. Do not apply heavy pressure.
