Under-eye dark circles and hollow tear troughs can make you look tired, stressed, and older than you feel. While creams and concealers can temporarily mask the problem, they do not address the underlying cause. For those seeking a fast, effective, and minimally invasive solution, dermal filler injections offer the ideal way to refresh and rejuvenate the under-eye area. At the office of Maurice M. Khosh, MD, FACS, in NYC, this cutting-edge treatment can help you achieve a brighter, more youthful appearance.
What Causes Dark Circles and Hollow Tear Troughs?
Dark circles and tear troughs often result from natural changes in the skin and soft tissues as we age. Contributing factors include:
- Volume Loss: Aging leads to the loss of fat and collagen in the under-eye area, creating a hollow or sunken appearance.
- Thinning Skin: Reduced skin thickness makes underlying blood vessels more visible, contributing to the appearance of dark circles.
- Genetics: Some individuals are predisposed to dark circles or deep tear troughs, regardless of age.
- Lifestyle Factors: Stress, lack of sleep, and dehydration can exacerbate under-eye darkness and puffiness.
Dermal fillers provide an instant remedy by restoring lost volume, smoothing hollow areas, and reducing shadows that create the illusion of darkness.
How Do Dermal Fillers Work for Dark Circles?
Dermal fillers, typically made of hyaluronic acid (HA), are injected into the under-eye area to plump and smooth the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that attracts and retains moisture, making it ideal for hydrating and revitalizing the skin. The process for obtaining facial filler injections for dark circles is as follows:
- Consultation: Dr. Khosh evaluates your specific concerns and facial anatomy to determine the most effective treatment plan.
- Injection: Using a fine needle or cannula, the filler is precisely placed in the tear trough area to restore volume and reduce shadows.
- Immediate Results: The results are visible immediately, with minimal downtime.
This quick and minimally invasive procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes, making it an excellent option for busy individuals seeking rapid improvement.
The Benefits of Dermal Fillers for Under-Eye Rejuvenation
Dermal fillers offer a range of benefits that make them the go-to solution for treating dark circles and tear troughs:
- Instant Results: Enjoy a refreshed, youthful appearance right after the procedure.
- Minimally Invasive: No surgery or extended recovery time is required.
- Long-Lasting Effects: Results typically last 6-12 months, depending on the filler used and individual factors.
- Customizable Treatment: Dr. Khosh tailors the treatment to complement your unique facial features.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over 5.2 million hyaluronic acid dermal filler procedures are performed annually in the U.S., making it one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments. Tear trough rejuvenation is increasingly sought after due to its ability to deliver transformative yet natural-looking results.
