TEAR TROUGHS, EYE CIRCLES & EYE BAGS

Tear trough filler is one of the fastest ways to brighten and rejuvenate the under-eye area. By restoring lost volume with hyaluronic acid, it smooths hollows, reduces dark circles, and refreshes tired-looking eyes almost instantly.
At our East London aesthetics clinic, we use premium hyaluronic acid filler (Teoxane (Teosysal) Redensity II) which provides immediate, long-lasting improvement - unlike polynucleotides, which hydrate and improve skin quality gradually.
Dr. Michael Aicken has over 18 years’ experience with dermal fillers and has taught his advanced tear trough technique to thousands of practitioners worldwide. His preferred needle-based approach allows exceptional precision for natural, seamless results.
Is Tear Trough filler right for me?
If you're noticing that your eyes look more tired than usual, even when you're well slept and well hydrated, then this treatment is a subtle way to give yourself a more refreshed appearance. Eye bags which are mild to moderate can also be improved with this treatment while severe under eye bags are best treated with surgery. Dr Mike will be able to advise whether eye trough filler is right for you.
It's also worth noting that a Skin Booster such as Sunekos can be used to brighten this area too. Dr Mike can discuss this alternative or additional option with you during your consultation.
How long does it last?
As with all fillers, this is a temporary treatment, although it is fairly long-lasting and can be easily topped up. It normally lasts between 9-12 months.
Will it hurt?
The skin will be numbed using a strong anaesthetic cream so that the whole procedure is virtually pain-free. The filler itself also contains lidocaine which will optimise comfort levels throughout. This treatment takes around 5-10 minutes to complete and the results are instant.
What volume to go for?
1ml is the recommended dose by the manufacturer (Teoxane, Redensity II). On rare occasions a second ml is needed, best carried out at least one week after the initial treatment.
What will it cost?
Our Tear Trough filler at Astral Skin Clinic is £250 for 1ml. If needed, and returning within one month, a second ml can be added for an additional £225.
What is the downtime?
As with all injections, it is possible that some slight swelling or bruising will occur for 2-3 days. We ask that you try to refrain from touching the treated area or applying cream or makeup directly after the procedure. That being said, as treatments go, there is very little downtime and results are instant. Makeup and creams can be applied after 12 hours.
