Tear-trough-treatment Treatment Options
Medical & Non-Surgical Approaches
- Tear trough filler gives faster, more obvious results than skin care or topical products, which cant replace lost volume. Skin boosters and polynucleotides can improve texture and fine lines but wont correct deeper hollows. PRP may help colour and skin quality. For severe hollows or eye bags, lower blepharoplasty surgery can be more appropriate. Each option solves a different problem.
