Tear Trough Filler

IN WETHERSFIELD, CT

For many patients the area under the eyes shows more than just their age. If you feel that you havehad sunken under-eye areas, dark circles, and tired eyes regardless of your age, then you are likely experiencing under eye hollowness.

Is Tear Trough Filler with the Cannula Technique Right for You?

Ideal candidates for this procedure are individuals seeking non-surgical solutions for under-eye concerns. Typically, tear trough filler is best for patients that are experiencing hollowing under their eyes without the formations of under eye bags or puffiness. A thorough consultation with Dr. Karter will helpdetermine suitability and ensure realistic expectations.

Understanding Facial Aging

Tear trough filler using the cannula technique is an advanced non-surgical procedure designed to address the under-eye area and any insecurities that may arise there. Unlike traditional needle injections, this technique utilizes a blunt-tipped cannula, minimizing discomfort, bruising, and enhancing precision during the treatment.

After a local numbing agent is injected, the cannula is gently inserted into the designated area, and the filler is strategically placed to address hollowness and dark circles. Enjoy immediate results with minimal downtime, showcasing a refreshed and rejuvenated under-eye appearance.
