If you are stressed out from the dark circles under your eyes and have tried many creams and serums without any success. If you need a lot of foundation to cover the hollowness in this area, or if you have a familial sunken under eye region, you are a good candidate for Dermal Filler Tear Trough Lift.
The appearance of dark circles under the eye can be due to various reasons – loss of volume in this area, or prominent veins under the thin undereye skin, or due to pigmentation, often brought about by excessive rubbing or cleansing in the eyelid region. The role of a tear trough filler injection is to decrease indentations and increase fullness so as to reduce the effect of lost volume beneath the eyelids.
We only use Hyaluronic Acid dermal filler called Restylane Lyft Lidocaine in this area, delivered either through needle or microcannula. The entire procedure is relatively painless, and do not have any downtime in most of the cases.
The filler we use can be dissolved if required giving the treatment safety and reversibility.
An accurate estimate of the costs is only possible after an in-clinic consultation with Dr Prashant. We charge a £50 deposit to secure your consultation with Dr Prashant, this amount will be deducted from the costs of the treatment you go on to have at our clinic.
