What is Tear Trough Filler?
Under-eye issues such as sunken areas or dark circles can be challenging to address. Many individuals may turn to remedies such as creams or serums that might provide some improvement, but they may not be enough to solve the problem. Tear trough filler is a minimally invasive aesthetic treatment that can be used to refresh and smooth the under-eye area from beneath the surface by delicately injecting dermal filler into the area. Typically made with hyaluronic acid, these fillers work by adding volume to the area and softening the appearance of dark circles.
Tear Trough Filler Benefits
Tear trough filler can greatly improve the overall appearance of the under-eye area for a revitalized, alert, and youthful result. Since this procedure is also non-surgical, patients can enjoy no scarring and no downtime. Just some of the great benefits include:
- Restored under eye volume for a more youthful appearance
- Eliminate or lessen dark circles and hollowness
- Quick results that last six months or more
- Natural-looking results that enhance your features
- Immediate improvement in tired or aged appearance
- Versatile treatment that can be combined with other aesthetic procedures
- Short, simple, in-office treatment (under 30 minutes)
- Minimal discomfort with topical numbing options

Tear Trough Filler Candidates
Typically, our tear trough filler patients are looking to treat depressions, tear trough deformity, or dark circles under the eyes, and this treatment is best for those with mild to moderate concerns. Those with very thin skin or excess laxity may not be good candidates for this treatment.
Consultation and Preparation for Tear Trough Filler
At your consultation for tear trough filler Chicago injection specialists at Michael Horn Plastic Surgery & Med Spa will discuss your aesthetic goals and examine your eye area to determine if this is an ideal treatment for you. Then, we will create a customized treatment plan that might include filler or other recommended cosmetic procedures to help you achieve your goals. There is little to no preparation involved with tear trough filler, but patients may need to avoid certain medications and supplements, which we will outline during the consultation.
The Tear Trough Filler Procedure
The tear trough filler procedure is typically performed in under 30 minutes and involves minimal discomfort. A numbing cream or local anesthetic may be applied to the area for maximum comfort during the treatment. Your master injector will use a very fine needle to carefully administer the filler in the tear troughs, ensuring even distribution and natural results.
Results, Recovery, and Aftercare with Tear Trough Filler
Patients may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site, which typically resolves within a few days. Optimal results are usually seen within a few days to one week and last six months to one year in many patients. Maintenance treatments can be done when patients begin to see results fade.
