The skin around your eyes is thin and delicate. As you age, crow’s feet and hollow bags can develop and make you look tired and older. The nasojugal groove, known as the tear trough, is located under the inner corner of your eye and extends toward the cheekbone. The tear trough deepens as you age and can make dark circles more prominent. Non-surgical eyelid treatment rejuvenates your eyes for a more youthful appearance.

Fillers for Tear Troughs

Non-surgical eyelid treatment uses fillers to boost volume around the eyes to diminish eye bags and shadows. The type of fillers used will depend on your needs and preferences. These treatment options can vary from skin plumping dermal fillers and Botox® injections to laser therapy and radiofrequency treatments.

The minimally invasive cosmetic procedure provides immediate results with minimal downtime. The full recovery period will vary depending on the treatment options chosen. The risks and complications involved with each treatment option can be discussed during your initial consultation appointment. Normal activities can be resumed immediately after the procedure. Results typically last between 9-12 months.

Non-Surgical Eyelid Treatment Candidates

To be considered for non-surgical eyelid treatment, you should be a non-smoker in good physical health. Smoking can impede the healing process. If you do smoke, it is best to quit a few months before your procedure. During your consultation appointment, the plastic surgeon can determine if you are healthy enough for this procedure.
