The tear trough refers to the facial zone beneath the eyes. It starts from the inner corner and extends outwards and downwards towards the cheek. As we age, this area often loses volume due to the reduction in fat pads. This results in more pronounced shadows under the eyes, making us appear older or more fatigued than we actually are.
Genetics, sleep patterns, and lifestyle choices can also influence the appearance of the tear troughs. These factors can lead to a darker and more recessed look. Additionally, some individuals may naturally have more pronounced hollows in this area from birth.
Several treatments are available to improve the look of the tear troughs. This includes the use of a corrective skincare routine to help address pigmentation and hydration of the under-eye area. The goal is to make the under-eye area look better by reducing the hollow look and making dark circles less noticeable.
Because the skin around the eyes is very delicate and can easily swell or become puffy, this detailed procedure must be done with great care. Treating volume loss in the upper cheeks can also help support the area under the eyes, lessening the effects of the indentations under the eyes. This overall approach aims to rejuvenate the eye area in a balanced way.
