Tear Trough

Tear Trough

Tear trough fillers are an effective solution for under-eye hollows, but like any cosmetic procedure, they come with potential side effects. At MacsofLondon Medical Aesthetics & Wellness Clinic, we prioritize your safety and satisfaction, ensuring a personalized approach with minimal risks.


Who is a Good Candidate for Tear Trough Filler?


Ideal candidates include those with noticeable under-eye hollows, minimal lower eyelid fat, and good skin elasticity. Having realistic expectations and understanding the procedure’s benefits and risks are key to a positive outcome. At MacsofLondon, we carefully assess each patient to ensure suitability for the treatment.


Common Side Effects

  1. Bruising and Swelling: These are the most common and typically resolve within a few days.
  2. Tenderness: Mild tenderness is normal post-treatment, subsiding shortly after.
  3. Temporary Asymmetry: Occurs due to uneven swelling, but should settle as the filler integrates.

Rare but Serious Side Effects


  1. Lumps or Nodules: At MacsofLondon, we use high-quality hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which are easily adjustable or dissolvable if issues arise.
  2. Tyndall Effect: This occurs when filler is placed too close to the skin’s surface, causing a bluish tint. Our skilled injectors use precise techniques to avoid this.
  3. Infection and Vascular Occlusion: While rare, infection or blocked blood vessels can occur. Our experienced team uses advanced techniques to minimize these risks and can dissolve filler immediately if vascular occlusion occurs.

Reducing Your Risk


At MacsofLondon, our highly trained team utilizes state-of-the-art methods and carefully selects the best filler types, ensuring a safe and smooth process with long-lasting, natural-looking results. We also offer 0% finance options, making treatments accessible without compromising quality.


What to Expect During and After Treatment


The treatment lasts around 30 minutes, with minimal discomfort due to the use of local anesthetic. Side effects like swelling or bruising may occur but should subside within a few days. We recommend avoiding alcohol, sun exposure, and vigorous activity post-treatment to help reduce these side effects.

A Comprehensive Guide to Tear Trough Filler

Tear trough fillers are a sought-after solution for under-eye hollows, helping to restore a refreshed, youthful look. However, like all cosmetic treatments, they come with potential side effects. Understanding these, and knowing how to mitigate them, is essential to ensuring a safe and effective result.


Common Side Effects

  1. Bruising and Swelling: These are the most common side effects, typically lasting a few days. The area around the eyes is sensitive, so swelling after the procedure is to be expected. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise and alcohol for 24-48 hours post-treatment to minimize these effects.
  2. Tenderness: Mild tenderness is also common and should dissipate within a few days.
  3. Temporary Asymmetry: Sometimes, one side may appear slightly different due to uneven swelling. This should resolve as the filler settles.


Rare but Serious Side Effects

  1. Lumps or Nodules: In rare cases, lumps can form if the filler is placed incorrectly. At MacsofLondon, we use advanced techniques and hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which can be easily adjusted or dissolved if necessary.
  2. Tyndall Effect: This is a rare occurrence where the filler gives a bluish tint to the skin. Our trained injectors carefully place the filler at the correct depth to avoid this complication.
  3. Infection: Though rare, infection is a risk with any procedure involving injections. Adhering to proper aftercare and ensuring the procedure is done in a sterile environment reduces this risk.
  4. Vascular Occlusion: This is one of the most serious risks, where a blood vessel becomes blocked by the filler, potentially leading to tissue damage. At MacsofLondon, we monitor blood flow throughout the procedure and are equipped to dissolve the filler if necessary using hyaluronidase.


Minimising Risk


Choosing an experienced injector is key to minimizing risk. At MacsofLondon, our experts use the latest techniques to provide safe, natural-looking results. Our clinic also offers 0% finance options, making high-quality aesthetic treatments accessible.


What to Expect During Treatment


Our tear trough filler procedure typically takes around 30 minutes. A local anesthetic is used to ensure comfort, and you can expect minimal downtime. Most side effects, like bruising and swelling, will subside within a few days. We encourage clients to avoid sun exposure, alcohol, and vigorous exercise for at least 48 hours after treatment.

For those interested in more than just tear trough filler, we offer a wide range of other aesthetic treatments. Learn more about our treatment options or schedule your appointment through our online booking system.
