Tear troughs

Tear troughs are the lines or shadows that run from the inner corner of the eye down to the cheek. They often create a tired, gloomy, or older appearance, even when you're getting enough sleep and feeling refreshed. Xavier Clinics in Amsterdam we are specialized in the safe and natural treatment of tear troughs, with the aim of restoring a fresh, rested look.

What are tear troughs?

The tear trough is caused by loss of volume under the eyes, thinning skin, and sagging fatty and supporting tissue. This causes:

  • Dark circles
  • Sunken walls
  • A tired look

Tear troughs can be visible from a young age and are often influenced by genetics, skin quality and aging.

Treatment of tear troughs

At Xavier Clinics we only treat tear troughs after a careful medical analysis of the face. Not everyone is automatically suitable for tear trough filler; safety and a natural result are always paramount.

Depending on your anatomy and skin condition, you can choose:

  • Hyaluronic acid filler specially developed for the tear trough
  • Combination treatments to improve skin quality
  • Advice on alternatives when a filler is not the right choice

The treatment is subtle, precise and aimed at restoring volume without making the face look heavy or puffy.

Natural results & safety

The tear trough is a medically complex and sensitive area. That's why this treatment at Xavier Clinics is performed exclusively by an experienced cosmetic doctor. We work with high-quality fillers and safe injection techniques to minimize risks and guarantee a natural-looking result.

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.
