Tear trough filler, or injectable hylauronic acid filler such as Juvederm®, is a popular cosmetic treatment that can restore tired eyes or dark circles to give a refreshed appearance to the under eye area and help restore skin laxity and lost volume.

To understand the ins and outs of this popular facial rejuvenation procedure, you first need to understand what a tear trough is. A tear trough is the lower eyelid area between the lower eyelid and eyebrow – this is where the tears drain from the eye. The skin of the lower eyelid has a natural depression in the shape of a crescent moon called the tear trough.
The cause of a tear trough is from a depression or hollow that occurs below the eyes due to a loss of subcutaneous fat in this area.his results in excess skin over the bony orbital rim. As we age the tissues around the eye weaken and as a result the skin may begin to sag and form wrinkles around the eyes. These “troughs” can develop at any stage of life however, they are generally more noticeable as we get older due to the weakening of tissues around the eye and formation of wrinkles. When this happens, it can cause the skin of the eyelids to appear wrinkled and give the face a tired look or sunken look.
Dermal fillers are a safe and non-invasive procedure that helps to restore this loss of Volume. These fillers are injected directly into the area where the loss of volume occurs. They add volume and lift the skin to restore the youthful appearance of the eyes.
The effects of filler can last anywhere from six to nine months. Duration depends on the patient’s individual response to the treatment and at home maintence. At VIVA we recommend a full face consultation to ensure this is the appropriate treatment for you ensuring that expectations are realistic and you are left with the results you desire.

Review Nurse Vikki !
I had the pleasure of having Nurse Vikki at Viva Skin Clinics for my lip filler, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Nurse Vikki has a sensitive touch that truly transforms the process into an art form. What I particularly appreciate is the immaculate work she does – my lips may not be volumized, but the definition she brings to the border is nothing short of splendid, achieving a look that is both defined and entirely natural.
The results truly speak for themselves. Nurse Vikki’s attention to detail is exceptional, and her wonderful soul and touch go above and beyond any expectations. She has a unique ability to enhance your natural features, making the experience not just about aesthetics but about revealing the best version of yourself.
I highly recommend Nurse Vikki for anyone seeking a skilled professional with a sensitive touch and an artistic approach. Thank you, Nurse Vikki, for your outstanding work!
Best regards,
Eleonora
