Under Eye Bags & Tear Trough Filler

Brighten and Refresh the Under Eye Area at Schon Aesthetics & Laser

Why Do I Have Under Eye Bags and Dark Circles?

Under eye bags, dark circles, and hollowing are very common concerns and can make the face appear tired, aged, or less refreshed—even when you feel well-rested.

The causes of under eye bags and tear troughs can include:

• Genetics (hereditary factors)
• Age-related volume loss
• Weight loss
• Stress and lifestyle factors

As we age, there is a gradual loss of volume in the under eye and cheek area, which leads to a hollowed appearance and a visible indentation where the lower eyelid meets the cheek. This indentation is known as the tear trough. Reduced support in the mid-face can also worsen the appearance of under eye bags and shadows.

Under eye dermal filler is designed to restore volume, soften hollowing, and improve light reflection in this delicate area, helping to create a brighter, fresher, and more rested appearance.

What Is Under Eye (Tear Trough) Dermal Filler?

Under eye dermal filler, also known as tear trough filler, is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that uses a specialised hyaluronic acid filler to improve the appearance of hollowing, shadows, and under eye bags.

The fillers used at Schon Aesthetics & Laser in Birmingham are made from naturally occurring hyaluronic acid, are non-animal based, and are specifically formulated for the delicate under eye area.

How Does Under Eye Dermal Filler Work?

Tear trough treatment involves the precise placement of dermal filler beneath the eye to restore lost volume and improve contour.

There are two main approaches:

Direct Tear Trough Treatment

Small amounts of filler are placed directly into the tear trough to:

• Elevate hollowing
• Reduce shadows and dark circles

Improve the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek.

Indirect Tear Trough Treatment

In some cases, volume loss in the upper cheek (mid-face) contributes significantly to under eye hollowing. Replacing volume in this area can indirectly improve the tear trough and under eye bags. This approach often provides a more natural and balanced result.

A full consultation and facial assessment is always carried out to determine the most appropriate and safest technique for your individual anatomy.

Why Is Under Eye Filler a Good Option?

Under eye dermal filler is a popular option for suitable patients because it:

• Is non-surgical
• Requires minimal downtime
• Provides subtle, natural-looking improvement
• Can significantly reduce the appearance of tiredness
• Improves facial harmony and light reflection

For many patients, it offers an effective alternative to surgical procedures when volume loss is the primary concern.

Who Is Under Eye Dermal Filler Suitable For?

Under eye filler may be suitable for individuals who:

• Have hollow or sunken tear troughs
• Notice dark circles caused by volume loss
• Appear tired despite adequate sleep
• Have mild to moderate under eye bags related to hollowing
• Are in good general health and have realistic expectations

It may not be suitable for patients with significant skin laxity, prominent fat pads, or certain medical conditions. Suitability will always be determined during a consultation.
