Under eye filler is a non-surgical injectable treatment that restores lost volume beneath the eyes, reducing the appearance of dark circles, hollows and fine lines. The area beneath the eye is often one of the first to show signs of ageing, and can also be affected by genetics, making it a concern for younger patients too.
Using hyaluronic acid filler, the treatment adds precise volume beneath the skin to smooth the hollow, reduce shadowing and leave the eye area looking naturally refreshed. Results are visible within days and last up to 12 months.
Treatment areas: Under-eye area
Within 2 to 14 days
Your treatment begins with a consultation where your doctor will assess the under-eye area, discuss your concerns and confirm the most appropriate approach for your anatomy. Under-eye filler is suitable for most adults, including those whose hollows are largely genetic rather than age-related. Your doctor will explain the placement plan and set realistic expectations before any treatment begins.
Filler is injected carefully beneath the skin in the under-eye area to add volume and smooth the hollow. The session takes around 15 to 40 minutes, depending on the extent of treatment required. Most patients find the procedure comfortable and tolerable throughout. Some mild swelling or bruising may occur immediately after, but typically settles within 24 to 48 hours. The final result is best assessed two weeks after treatment once any residual swelling has fully resolved.

Fills hollows and sunken areas beneath the eye for a smoother, more even appearance

Less shadowing and improved volume beneath the eye makes the whole face look more alert
The under-eye area is uniquely challenging because it is affected by a combination of factors including ageing, volume loss, skin thinning, genetics and circulation. Under eye filler works by placing hyaluronic acid directly into the hollow, restoring volume where it has been lost and reducing the depth of shadow that makes the area look dark or sunken.
Because hyaluronic acid is a substance that occurs naturally in the body, it integrates well with the surrounding tissue and produces a result that looks genuinely natural rather than treated. The treatment is also fully reversible, which is particularly reassuring for first-time patients or those treating the under-eye area for the first time. Depending on the individual, results typically last between 6 and 12 months before a repeat treatment is needed to maintain the improvement.
Some simple precautions in the first 24 to 48 hours after treatment help minimise swelling and protect your result. Your doctor will go through this with you before you leave.
Under-eye filler is well-tolerated by most patients. The under-eye area can be more prone to swelling and bruising than other areas due to the skin’s delicate nature, but these effects are temporary and resolve on their own.
Common temporary side effects include:
These effects generally resolve within 2 to 7 days. Rarely, more serious complications such as infection can occur, which is why treatment by a qualified medical professional is important. All potential side effects will be discussed in full during your consultation.
Under-eye filler is one of those treatments where the improvement tends to be noticed by others before it is fully explained. Patients consistently find that friends and colleagues comment that they look more rested or well, without being able to identify exactly why.
The filler is injected into the tear trough area to plump up the skin and fill in hollows. This helps to smooth out the under-eye area, reducing the appearance of shadows and bags. The whole treatment takes about 15-30 minutes
Yes, tear trough fillers are a hyaluronic acid filler which is generally safe when performed by a qualified and experienced medical professional. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, so it’s important to choose a reputable practitioner.
The treatment involves the use of a fine needle or cannula, so some patients may experience mild discomfort. However, most practitioners apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to minimize any pain or discomfort.
Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. However, it’s recommended to avoid intense physical activities, excessive sun exposure, and makeup application for the first 24-48 hours after the procedure.
Yes, dermal filler used in tear trough treatment can be reversed using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This enzyme breaks down the filler and allows it to be metabolized by the body.
Good candidates for tear trough filler are individuals who have hollows or dark circles under their eyes, giving them a tired or aged appearance. It is important for candidates to have realistic expectations and be in good overall health.
