Tear troughs

In recent years, we've become increasingly concerned with our appearance. Dark circles and bags under your eyes can seriously damage your self-confidence. With a tear trough filler treatment at Xavier Clinics, we'll give you a fresh and rested look. Because a healthy and fresh appearance boosts your self-confidence. And that's what we think is so important! Think a tear trough filler treatment might be right for you? Then read on to learn more about this treatment.

The tear trough is the area between the corner of the eye and the upper cheek. In many people, this area is somewhat deeper and sometimes darker in color. This dark color often arises from several causes: a shadow under the eye, pigmentation, and visible blood vessels. All of this results in a constantly tired look.

This area can be filled with a special filler. We offer a filler that is the only one on the market specifically developed for this area. By filling the tear trough, not only does the volume loss decrease but also the dark color is reduced. When the depth is filled, there is less of a shadow effect. The result is a fresh and rested look. We recommend repeating this treatment after 12-18 months.

Consultation with the doctor

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

Risks

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.

What does a tear trough filler treatment do?

Do you ever look in the mirror and see dark circles under your eyes? Many people have tear troughs that extend deep into their face and appear darker in color. This depth creates a shadow effect, resulting in discoloration that can make you look tired, even if you had a good night's sleep. A tired look can give you an aged appearance. Tear trough fillers can help address this, ensuring you not only feel rested but also radiate it.

A tear trough develops as a result of aging; the skin under your eyes loses volume as you age. The dark color can be caused by various factors, such as pigmentation under your eyes, shadows cast by your eyes, or visible blood vessels. It's difficult to simply remove these grooves and discoloration. Some eye creams promise to help, but they can't penetrate deeply enough to reverse the volume loss.

Fillers with hyaluronic acid

Because the skin under the eyes is sensitive, it is important to be extremely careful with this area. There are only a few different filler treatments to treat this area safely. At Xavier Clinics, we use a special filler with hyaluronic acid that is effective, namely: Teosyal Redensity 2. It is the only filler on the market that has been specifically developed to safely fill the tear troughs. In addition, these fillers also reduce the darkness under the eyes, because filling the tear troughs reduces the shadow effect. The result?

  • Wrinkles and lines fade
  • A fresher and rested face
  • A younger appearance
  • A hydrated skin
  • A strengthened protective layer of your skin
  • A skin armed against free radicals
  • A supple and firm skin

The tear trough filler treatment doesn't take long. Depending on the situation, we can use local anesthesia or apply a numbing cream. The fillers are then safely injected into the skin. You can go home immediately after the tear trough filler treatment. Minor side effects, such as redness and bruising, may occur up to 48 hours after the treatment; these will disappear on their own. After two to four weeks, the skin will have healed, and you can admire the final result. This filler can sometimes provide beautiful results for up to two years after placement.

High quality of care at Xavier Clinics

At Xavier Clinics, we highly value the high quality of care we provide. We work with experienced, certified physicians and specialists. Our healthcare providers are members of the NVCG, the Dutch Association for Cosmetic Medicine. The NVCG, NVFDE, and NVH are government-recognized scientific associations for cosmetic medicine, facial and dental aesthetics, and skin therapy. Our members therefore meet strict quality standards.

Xavier Clinics not only collaborates with certified physicians and specialists but also specifically uses the best products on the market. Extensive, years-long research has been conducted on the fillers used by Xavier Clinics. The filler we use to fill your tear troughs is based on hyaluronic acid. This ensures a safe and natural result under your eyes. Hyaluronic acid is produced naturally by the body and can also be broken down biologically. Therefore, the chance of an allergic reaction or other rejection is very small. Because the body breaks down the hyaluronic acid, this is not a permanent treatment. Xavier Clinics recommends repeating the tear trough filler treatment after 12 to 24 months to maintain the beautiful results.

In short: at Xavier Clinics, you come first. We want to know your needs so we can provide you with the best possible advice. We offer the highest quality and expertise in our field. We also have no long wait times, so we can help you quickly.
