The tear trough is a hollow area that is located directly under the eye. The area starts at the inner corner of the eye and runs diagonally down towards the cheek and outer eye. If the hollow is deep set it can appear darker or give the appearance of a shadow under the eye. Hollow tear trough can be hereditary, caused by excess weight loss, medication, or as apart of the natural aging process. The dark appearance can cause the face to look tired and older. A hollow tear trough can be smoothed out by strategically injecting dermal filler to restore volume. Tear trough filler is injected through the cheek using a cannula to reduce minimise the risk of bruising or swelling.
You will be asked to attend a consultation with one of our nurse prescribers, during which they will carry out a medical history check, assess the area(s) of concern and agree upon a treatment plan to suit your needs. Immediately before treatment, your practitioner will take you through the consent documents and take some pre-treatment photographs. The treatment area will be cleaned and numbing cream or injection administered. Once the area is numbed, the injections can take between 5 and 15 minutes, depending on the area. The nurse prescriber will massage the area after injection and post treatment photos will be taken so you can see your results. You will then be given aftercare advice, which will also be emailed to you.
Fillers are suitable for any skin type and they can be done from age 18 onwards. As each patient is different, some may require more ml of filler than others, often over multiple treatments to achieve the desired result. Your practitioner will discuss realistic expectations with you prior to treatment.
A patch test is not required for dermal fillers.
As topical anaesthetic is applied prior to treatment to minimise discomfort, our dermal fillers are generally tolerated well. Some fillers are mixed with a mild anaesthetic so extra pain relief is ensured throughout the treatment. Numbing injections can also be used in some cases.
It is possible to experience some localised redness, tenderness and swelling to the area. This usually resolves within a few days. Bruising is also a possible side effect, though this is usually minimal and will take up to 7 days to resolve.
All our injectable treatments are carried out only by our highly experienced nurse prescribers so you know you are in safe hands.
Avoid blood-thinning medications such as aspirin and ibuprofen for at least 24 hours prior to treatment (unless instructed by your GP). Please avoid consuming alcohol for 24 hours prior and please attend without makeup.
Prices start from £350
Seronn Ainsworth2023-06-07 Michelle is the BEST at fillers and Botox out there. I recommend Michelle to everybody. Michelle always gives the most natural looking fillers and the desired result; she really prioritises the look of her work over money. Michelle corrected my fillers perfectly and safely when I’d had a bad experience with another practitioner; she took so much care after her work, even contacting me to check I was happy with the results. 100% recommend!! Kayley Roberts2023-06-03 I've been coming to Michelle for 7 years for botox to help with my facial paralysis due to jaw surgeries. Michelle has always been kind and listened to what I wanted. She's been able to help transform my face so I can look like me again! She has gave me the confidence that I had lost...I'm forever grateful to her. Recently she recommended a new treatment called EMFACE and so far my results have been amazing!! Kira Courtney2023-05-18 I have used the clinic for various skin treatments over the past 10 years. Michelle and the team at Aesthetically You are great. From the minute you enter the clinic, which is set in a beautiful period property on Rodney Street, you feel at ease. The team are friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable about each of their specialist areas x Marky Goulding2023-04-29 Lovely experience. Michelle is very thorough, honest, and delivers a great service Mia Howard2023-04-02 Amazing staff, I’ve had my lips done twice here and both times I was made to feel so welcome and comfortable, with amazing results that really helped boost my confidence in my appearance! Would absolutely recommend. Debbie Brown2023-03-11 Had 2 sessions of profhilo with Michelle. She really made me feel at ease and answered all my questions and results were great. The clinic is clean and professional and the staff on reception friendly and helpful. I will be getting my treatments here from now on Georgie H2023-02-17 I’m obsessed with skincare and I’ve been going to Aesthetically You for years – they are the only people I trust with my face/body/health and they’ve never let me down. I’ve had multiple procedures and treatments there over the years and recently decided to try their new addition EMFACE. I had planned on only having two sessions but after the results I’ve had so far there’s no way I can’t complete all four recommended. I’ve already booked in for my third one next week. It has completely exceeded my expectations and I’m blown away by the results. It has lifted my face so much that I feel like a completely new person; I didn’t think that results like this were possible with any skincare procedure after having so many (I’m always pretty sceptical trying something new), but the difference is insane after having two sessions. My skin looks so plump and fresh, and I feel like I look so much younger. I don’t mind having downtime after a procedure because I think it usually comes as part of the package but there is no downtime whatsoever and it’s been a huge game changer for me. If you go to Aesthetically You for a consultation or any treatment I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you so much to all of the team at Aesthetically You – they’re all magical! x Nawra Al Lawati2022-12-10 Went in for skin analysis with Hollie and got Obagi products based on her recommendation. I am already seeing a difference in my skin only a few weeks into the process. Obagi products really make a difference. Hollie was super attentive and follows up with me constantly on my progress. She also doesn’t recommend anything more than what you need, so she won’t have you spending extra just for the sake of it. Thank you Hollie. Bernadette Oldfield2022-11-27 I absolutely love visiting Aesthetically You. Michelle has used her expertise to transform my face, offering guidance, support and honesty throughout. I finally feel like I look how I feel inside. Instead of walking into work and being told “You look knackered!” (erm… it’s just my face!) I now look refreshed, and have much more confidence. Looking back over my gradual improvements over 12 months makes me smile. Long may it continue! Thank you Michelle xx
