I look so tired under my eyes. What can you do to help?
One of the signs of ageing is the development of scoops (or depressions) under the eyes, which give that tired look. For most people this can begin in their 20’s, and it gets more and more noticeable as years go on.
This condition, of which we are all susceptible to is known as the “tear trough” based on the idea of tears from the eyes collecting in the scoops.
Comments like “you look tired” or “been burning the candle at both ends?” are often the catalyst for my clients to come to me for advice.
The answer may be filler under the eye. (I say may because not everyone is suitable - morning eye swelling for example).
By using dermal filler the skin is pushed from underneath using a safe technique involving a cannula (a blunt instrument which I like to think of rather like an aesthetics paintbrush!). The filler is gently deposited exactly where we want, lifting the depression/scoop so that the tissues are lifted, giving an instantly fresher, and for many people, a younger appearance.
Naturally people worry about the proximity to the eye! I can reassure people that although this is very near the eye, done correctly with the right technique and product the procedure itself is not dangerous, and generally safer than some of the other filler procedures.
