Tear trough treatment

Tear trough treatment focuses on supporting the under‑eye area where hollowness, shadowing, or age‑related changes can create a tired appearance. The tear trough is the natural groove between the lower eyelid and the upper cheek, and changes in this region are common as skin structure and facial volume shift over time. This treatment is only performed after a detailed assessment to determine whether it is appropriate and safe for the individual. Not everyone is suitable, and alternative options may be recommended depending on anatomy, skin quality, and overall facial structure.

The treatment involves the precise placement of a suitable product to support the under‑eye region. The aim is to improve the appearance of volume loss or shadowing by enhancing the surrounding tissue. A conservative approach is used, taking into account skin thickness, cheek support, facial proportions, and medical history. The area is cleansed and prepared, and a topical anaesthetic may be used for comfort. The product is placed using a fine needle or cannula, depending on the practitioner’s assessment. Most individuals describe the sensation as mild pressure or slight discomfort.

After treatment, it is common to experience mild swelling, tenderness, small areas of bruising, or a feeling of fullness. These effects are usually temporary. Personalised aftercare instructions are provided to support safe healing. As with any medical procedure, potential risks may include swelling, bruising, asymmetry, irregularities, or temporary changes in skin sensation. More serious risks, although uncommon, are discussed during consultation.

At Aesthetic Residence by Masie, tear trough treatment is performed using a conservative, safety‑focused approach that prioritises natural proportions and long‑term outcomes. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual’s anatomy to ensure the chosen approach aligns with their structure and goals.
