Treat Ageing Skin at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We start to notice loose and sagging skin as we begin to get older, because as the body naturally ages, so too does the skin. The body stops producing collagen and elastin by the age of twenty-five and the hyaluronic acid that hydrates the skin lessens, and this can result in the early signs of ageing.

There are lots of things that accelerate the ageing process of the skin:

• Sun damage - UVA rays emitted by the sun can cause pigmentation, reduced skin elasticity through collagen and elastin breakdown and skin-texture quality.
• Smoking - even second-hand smoke can cause damage to the elastin fibres causing sagging to the skin, age spots and lines and wrinkles around the mouth.
• Lack of sleep - can cause more fine lines, uneven skin colour and slackening of the skin.
• Stress - signs of stress can show up on your skin, hair and nails.
• Pollution and the environment - Dehydrated skin can leave the skin dry, rough and itchy and the city dust and dirt clogging up the pores can cause spots and make the skin look lifeless and dull.

Loss of volume in the face is one of the things we notice about getting older. As we age our facial fat is generally lost, causing the soft tissues to become thinner. Collagen and elastin will become less firm and elastic as we age, allowing the soft tissue in the face to sag. This results in the face looking thinner and facial bones looking more prominent.

Problems we get on the skin include:

• The cheeks - ageing skin is vulnerable to the effects of gravity and can sag, resulting in jowls and bags under the eyes.
• The mouth - laugh lines deepen and the fine lines that surround the lips, known as smokers lines begin to show
• The eyes - we get dark circles and tear troughs when the upper and lower eyes begin to sag.
• Facial thread veins - the blood vessels are more likely to break, bruise or become permanently dilated, causing thread veins.
• Age spots - when the pigment cells in the skin increase they cluster together, resulting in sun spots, freckles or liver spots.
• The forehead - repetitive facial expression movements made over time will see the start of wrinkles and furrows.
• The skin - facial wrinkles may occur because of thinning ageing skin. Reduced skin cell turnover will result in thinner crepe like skin. 

Selston Cosmetic Clinic offers the latest safe and effective cosmetic medical treatments to treat ageing of the skin. A little wrinkle, a bit of sagging or dark circle might be making you look older than you really are, but our experienced and fully trained cosmetic doctor can help you choose from a variety of treatments, and recommend which treatment is suitable for all of your concerns.

Tear Troughs - Fill In Eye Hollows With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Fresh looking eyes are a big asset to our overall facial appearance, we want to make a good first impression when we meet someone, we don't want them to only notice how tired and drawn we look. As we get older our face changes, and we begin to notice things like loss of volume and the skin getting thinner, and this, along with a natural decrease in fatty tissue and a loss of skin elasticity will cause the area beneath the eye to become puffy and shadowy.

The natural depression that follows the curve of the eye socket, from the nose around to the underside of the eye is known as the tear trough, because that’s where the tears gather. Getting dark circles beneath the eyes are a common problem as we age, and they can make us look weary. As well as ageing; smoking, the environment and stress can also contribute to shadows and eye bags, making them look worse.

When we're young, distribution of fat in our face is even, with some fat pockets plumping up the cheeks, forehead, temples and around the eyes and the mouth. As we get older, we lose volume as the fat shifts downward, making the features that were once rounded start to sink and become gaunt. This means that other parts of the face gain some fat, which tends to settle under the chin and around the jowls in the neck.

The skin around the eyes is very thin and we can see the underlying capillaries much easier compared to other parts of the face, making any diminished circulation, puffiness or swelling much more noticeable. Replacing volume in the under eye area can reshape the entire face and dermal fillers are now regularly used to fill in the hollows. Filling in these depressions can take away the tired look on your face and lighten the dark circles around the eyes.

Tear trough treatment will:

• Banish dark circles and bags from under the eye
• Ease wrinkles and lines
• Add volume to the under-eye area
• Get instant results that will last around 6-8 months
• Leave you feeling and looking more youthful

Tear trough treatment using dermal fillers is a non-surgical procedure that can restore your looks instantly. The filler gets precisely injected into the skin using very fine needles, re-creating the plump, firm skin that your under eye area used to have. A good cosmetic doctor with experience of injecting dermal fillers will have a trained eye for what looks good and what will suit your face. It's important to avoid an overdone and unnatural look, aiming instead for natural-looking results to make you look younger and more refreshed.

Fill In Ageing Tear Troughs With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Spending ages applying your make-up can feel such a waste of time when you then look in the mirror, and all you notice is how tired your eyes look. The area around the eyes has extremely thin skin, which means it's one of the first areas on the face to show ageing. As we age, the facial skeleton can shrink inwards, and everything resting on top of it will fall downwards, causing a hollowness around the eyes and creating shadows which can make us look exhausted.

Sunken eye hollows can cause you to feel disheartened when you notice the lost volume under the eyes. The volume loss can start in your early twenties, becoming more obvious as you age. Anyone can suffer from hollows under the eyes, and unfortunately they will inevitably worsen as you get older. 

Reasons we get dark circles and hollows under our eyes:

• Ageing
• The most common reason is that it's heredity
• The loss of orbital fat under the lower eyelids 
• Collagen loss in the skin, due to age and sun damage
• A temporary loss of volume in the under-eye area caused by dehydration

The tear trough extends from the inner corner of the eye, making an arc shape and continuing on to the outer corner, like a crescent-shaped area under your eye. The delicate skin beneath your eyes can sometimes seem dark, sunken and hollow, and this is usually a result of either ageing, dehydration, or lack of sleep.

A pronounced dip under the eye creates shadows and can leave you looking tired and older than your years. Injecting dermal filler into the eye hollow can smooth the area, lessen the look of the dark circles and rejuvenate the area. Tear trough treatment places the dermal filler below the skin, which will lift up the tissues, replace the volume and will make the tear trough area seem more shallow.

There are many descriptions used for sunken eyes:

• Hollow eyes
• Dark shadows
• Bags
• Thin-looking skin beneath the eyes
• Dark circles
• Tired eyes
• Tear troughs
• Under-eye hollows

Injecting dermal filler for tear trough treatment is almost painless, needing only a small application of local anaesthetic numbing cream twenty minutes before the injection treatment starts. The practitioner uses a cannula for tear trough injections, as this technique minimises bruising, and is a gentler technique. The recovery time is very quick, although patients may experience some redness and swelling, but this can easily be minimised and covered up with make-up.

Fill in Under Eye Hollows with Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

The tear trough is the area beneath the eye and the upper cheek. When we are young, the area under the eye is plump and firm, but as we age we start to lose volume, and it's through this volume loss that we develop a sunken dip under the bottom eyelash line to the upper cheek, giving us a tired, aged appearance.

Fresh looking eyes are a big asset to the overall appearance of a youthful, attractive, healthy face and deep hollows under the eyes can seem very ageing and leave you looking like you haven't slept in weeks. Over time the hollows change in appearance and become longer, deeper and more shadowed.

Tear troughs are usually caused by the thinning of the skin and the sagging of the cheek tissues, but they can now be corrected with advanced dermal fillers. This treatment will also help correct under eye dark shadowing. The older we get, the more we can expect to notice changes in our face such as dark circles and the deepening of the hollows under our eyes, and this happens because of the ageing process, genetics, unhealthy lifestyle or by sun damage.

The Tear Trough procedure is an ideal treatment for:

• Sunken eyes
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Tired looking eyes
• Eye bags

Deep unsightly hollows can now be corrected with advanced dermal fillers, and this filler treatment will also help to correct the dark shadowing beneath the eye. This loss of volume in the tissue causes troughs to appear and they often look worse when we're tired or dehydrated.

You should always choose a cosmetic practitioner with lots of experience in treating the face, as detailed knowledge of the anatomy is essential when treating this delicate area, and luckily at Selston Cosmetic Clinic, Dr Bassi has had over ten years of experience in cosmetic treatments and 26 years of experience in Medicine.

To minimise any discomfort, a topical anaesthetic cream gets applied about 20 minutes before your treatment starts, numbing the skin and easing any pain. The treatment only takes twenty to thirty minutes to complete and the results are instant. There's minimal downtime, although you may have a little bruising, as the skin under the eye is very delicate. Dermal fillers will rejuvenate tired looking eyes to create a more youthful appearance that lasts up to twelve months.

Fill Out Eye Hollows with Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We do a lot of things to try and keep our eyes looking young; using creams, concealers, serums, cucumber slices and even used tea-bags. As well as being the windows to the soul, the eyes are also a big giveaway to show others how well we are ageing. As we get older, one of the changes we can expect to notice are the dark circles and deepening of the hollows under the eyes.

The naso-jugal groove, also known as the tear trough, occurs due to the thinning of the overlying skin and soft tissue over the bony orbital rim, and this happens because of the ageing process, genetics or because of sun damage. Tear troughs run from the tear duct and down in an arc underneath the lower eyelid, and it's the loss of volume in the tissue beneath the eye and above the cheek that cause the hollows.

Deep unsightly hollows can now be corrected with advanced dermal fillers, and this treatment will also help to correct the dark shadowing beneath the eye.

Dermal filler is an ideal treatment for:

• Sunken eyes
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Tired looking eyes
• Eye bags

Dermal filler treatment fills out the hollows and lines beneath the eyes and helps to mask the dark circles with its light reflecting technology. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we use hyaluronic acid based filler, which is a substance that naturally occurs in the body. These fillers are non animal based and are very safe to use. This treatment will rejuvenate tired looking eyes to create a more youthful appearance that will last up to twelve months. 

Tear trough treatment involves injecting filler into the under eye area, which fills out the hollows. A topical anaesthetic cream gets applied about 20 minutes before treatment starts to minimise any discomfort, numbing the skin and easing any pain. The treatment only takes twenty to thirty minutes to complete and the results are instant. There's minimal downtime, although you may have a tiny amount of swelling as the skin under the eye is very delicate. 

Young looking eyes are a great asset to the overall appearance of a youthful, attractive, healthy face. Having dark hollows under the eyes can make you look older than you are and can leave you looking like you've had sleepless nights. Over time the hollows can change in appearance, becoming longer, deeper and even more shadowed.

Rejuvenate your Tear Troughs - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When people look at you, the eyes are the first thing they notice and the older we get, the more we see the effects that ageing has on our face, especially around the eyes. One of the things we notice is the deepening of the hollows beneath our eyes, which occurs because as we get older, the soft tissue loses volume.

The hollows, which are known as tear troughs, are the area directly beneath the eyes, starting at the nose and running under the eye. As we age the hyaluronic acid content in the skin diminishes and loses volume, making this pocket look sunken and hollow and the skin looks thinner and has less volume than we see in younger skin. Having deep hollows beneath the eyes can make you look a lot older than you are, and can make you look like you're having sleepless nights.

The tear troughs can create a shadow which makes any dark circles underneath the eye to look worse. No eye creams can help to take away hollows or shadows, and usually the only thing that will disguise them is make-up, however, the loss of volume that occurs under the eyes can easily be improved using dermal fillers.

There are lots of reasons why we get sunken eyes:

• Ageing
• Lack of sleep
• Tension and stress
• Genetics
• Bad food habits and unhealthy diet
• Lack of hydration
• Too much caffeine
• Smoking

The skin around our eyes is thinner and more delicate than skin anywhere else on the body, and when the collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid begins to deplete, it gets thinner. Dermal fillers are a great injectable treatment to combat hollowness and loss of volume under the eyes. The dermal fillers we use for tear trough treatment contain hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the skin cells, helping to keep the body moisturised for supple, youthful skin.

Dermal fillers involve injecting hyaluronic acid into the tissue below the eye, filling out the hollows and reducing under eye dark circles almost straight away. A filler treatment is minimally painless and only takes a few minutes to inject and almost immediately your skin will begin to regain the volume it's lost. The process only takes around 30 minutes and you'll be able to return to your normal daily routine straight away. The filler is temporary, so you’ll need to get the procedure redone every year or so.

Improve an Ageing Face with a PDO Thread Lift - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

If you feel that as you've grown older, the skin on your face has become loose or that it's starting to sag, and you would like a tighter, fresher, more youthful look without having any invasive surgery, then you should really consider PDO thread lift treatment. 

When we age it causes the skin tissue to become thinner, because the collagen and elastin fibres break down, and this will result in sagging skin, creases, folds, lines and wrinkles. PDO threads are a non-surgical treatment that can restore the face and neck, giving it back a youthful shape. They can improve and reduce sagging, loose skin, such as the jowls, cheeks, neck and eyebrows. 

At a consultation the cosmetic doctor will discuss your needs and decide what sort of result you are looking for. He will decide which areas he will concentrate on, to get an overall enhanced appearance. Thread lifts can help improve sagging cheeks, forehead wrinkles, deep lines and wrinkles, loss of facial volume, jowls and can even redefine the jaw line. Thread lifts are ideal for those who want a subtle change in their mid and lower face and don't want a long recovery time.

PDO Thread lifts can give you amazing results on;

• Sagging jowls
• Under eye bags
• Drooping upper eyebrows
• Defining the jaw line

The thread lift procedure involves lifting different areas of the face using specialised threads, all done without the need for surgical incisions. An ultra fine needle inserts the thread into the skin, into either the skin itself, the subcutaneous fat or the muscle.

The threads help to tighten and firm the skin by promoting collagen and elastin and also improves skin hydration by promoting hyaluronic acid which smooths the skin. Wrinkles will ease and the skin will look less crepe-like. You'll notice a lifted appearance immediately after the treatment, and the results will continue improving over the following days and weeks.

The benefits of a thread lift include;

• Instant and long-lasting results
• Minimal downtime
• Increase in natural collagen production
• No cuts and no incisions
• No stitches

The PDO threads gradually dissolve after 6 months, and the skin will keep improving for about 2-6 months, as new collagen grows between the threads giving a further lift and tightening to the skin. The results last for 12-18 months.

Fill in Hollow Tear Troughs With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Over time, our skin can start to look tired and lose its youthful glow. The reason the skin loses its firmness and starts to sag is mainly down to ageing, although too much sun, smoking, weight loss and genetics can also cause sagging and wrinkling.

No amount of eye creams and serums will help with eye hollows or dark circles, and usually corrective make-up is the only thing that will help to disguise them. Dermal fillers are very effective for filling in folds on the face or hollows and dark circles under the eyes, and a simple injection of filler can easily be used to fill in the tear troughs, giving an instant plumping effect of the hollows.

• There are many reasons why we get sunken eyes:
• Ageing
• Lack of sleep
• Tension and stress
• Genetics
• Bad food habits and indigestion
• Not enough hydration
• Too much caffeine intake
• Smoking

As we age, the body loses fat and bone density, especially in the face. The supporting structures that hold everything together start to decline, and the skin will lose collagen and become thinner and more translucent. Losing excess weight can make us look fitter and healthier, but it can also age us. A dramatic loss of fat in the face can hollow out the cheeks and eyes, and cause the blood vessels around the eyes to become more visible and transparent.

By the time we reach our mid twenties, our body stops producing collagen and elastin, which are the two proteins that work together to keep our tissue firm and the skin elastic. Once the existing collagen in the body starts to break down, the body will start to show typical signs of ageing, such as sunken cheeks, tear troughs, deep lines and wrinkles.

The dermal filler we use at Selston Cosmetic Clinic is Teosyal Redensity II, which fills out the hollows and lines under the eyes, whilst helping to mask the dark circles with its light reflecting technology. This is a hylauronic acid based filler, which is a substance that naturally occurs in the body, and is ideal for treating tear troughs.

Allergic reactions to dermal fillers are nearly unheard of, and any infections or side effects are extremely rare, as long as a trained practitioner with specialist training injects the filler. Sometimes there might be temporary side effects such as redness, slight bruising or swelling and this will happen immediately after the injection treatment, but these will disappear after a couple of days.

Dermal Filler to Treat Dark Circles, Eye Bags & Tear Troughs - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

It's the eyes that first catch another person’s attention, and this can concern a lot of men and women if they have sunken eyes, dark circles or bags under the eyes. Your eyes can tell a lot about you; your age, emotion, or your health.

Dermal filler to correct dark circles and tear troughs

• Loss of volume around the eye area exposes the orbital bone, resulting in a hollowed appearance beneath the eyes
• Changes in the skin's colour or pigmentation are common among those of African or Asian descent causing dark circles under the eyes
• Eye bags and dark circles can also be genetic, and there's a high chance that you could develop it as well if, some of your family have them too
• Sun exposure can produce excess melanin which can also contribute to the darkening around the eye area
• Dark under eye circles can also be caused by allergic reactions.
• A hectic social life, with late night outs, excess alcohol or smoking, can all temporarily darken the eye area

As we grow older we notice certain changes, and one that is commonly commented on, is the dark circles under the lower eyelids which can make you look tired and older than you really are, and it only gets worse as time goes on. The skin loses some of its volume and elasticity and the decrease of collagen production and elastin causes it to becomes thinner, and the loss of fatty tissues can cause a hollow or sunken appearance. The skin around the eyes is very thin and as we age it has a tendency to develop dark circles, eye bags and under eye hollows. The eye bag or tear trough is the groove between the lower eyelid and the cheek, caused by a loss of volume around eye area which exposes the orbital bone.

Dermal filler treatment for tear troughs

If you're looking for a quick fix, then make-up is the easiest option, helping to camouflage the areas that give you concern. Concealer, foundation and tinted moisturisers can help to cover up any dark areas and shadows temporarily, but they won't remedy the problem. Injectable treatments can improve sunken eyes and under eye circles, using dermal fillers.

Dermal fillers will help to visibly reduce the fine lines and creases around the eyes. With sunken eyes, dermal filler not only fills in that hollow area, but it also helps to increase collagen production. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic all the dermal fillers used are non-animal based, and are extremely safe. The filler gets injected into the deeper layers of skin, and over the following weeks will cause rehydration of the skin and underlying tissues, improving and rejuvenating your face.

Correct Dark Circles & Tear Troughs - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Deep hollows under the eyes can ruin the overall appearance of a youthful looking face, leaving you looking tired and aged. As we get older, the more we can expect to notice certain changes in our face, such as dark circles and the deepening of the hollows under our eyes, which are also known as the tear troughs.

In our youth, the area beneath the eye is plump and firm, but as time passes it starts to lose volume, and we develop a sunken dip under the eyes. These hollows are usually caused by the thinning of the skin and sagging cheek tissues. Over time the hollows can change in appearance and become longer, deeper and more shadowed.

We use creams, concealers, cucumber slices, serums and even used tea-bags to help disguise our ageing eyes, and help keep them looking youthful. The eyes are the first thing people notice when they look at us, so we want them to look their best. The tear troughs occur due to the thinning of the overlying skin and soft tissue over the bony orbital rim and happens as a result of either the ageing process, genetics or can also be caused by sun damage.

Tear troughs run from the nose side of each eye, in an arc under the lower eyelid. Most people complain of a tired looking appearance due to the darkness caused by the shadow. Troughs happen when we lose volume in the tissue under the eye and above the cheek and are often seem worse in appearance when we're tired or dehydrated.

Filler treatment for tear troughs is ideal for:

• Sunken eyes
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Tired looking eyes
• Eye bags

Dermal filler treatment for tear troughs, involves injecting filler into the delicate area under the eye to make subtle enhancements to the tear troughs by filling in the hollow areas. Having a detailed knowledge of the anatomy is essential and at Selston Cosmetic Clinic, Dr. Bassi has over 10 years experience as a specialist cosmetic practitioner and has performed thousands of injectable treatments. We use hyaluronic acid fillers, which are a substance that naturally occurs in the body, they are non animal based and very safe to use.

Tear Troughs - Fill In The Hollows Under The Eyes - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Dark circles under the eyes is a common problem. As we get older, we lose fat pads from underneath the eyes, and this causes eye bags, dark circles, puffiness and a hollowness that causes us to look tired and drawn. This loss of volume and laxity of the lower eyelid skin is often called the tear trough, and it can have the adverse effect of making us seem older than we are, which isn't great for our self-confidence.

In our youth, the fat in our face is distributed evenly, with some pockets plumping up the cheeks, forehead, temples and areas around the eyes and mouth. As we age, that fat loses volume and shifts downward, making the features that were once rounded, start to sink, meaning that other parts of the face gain some fat, so we tend to get baggy around the chin and jowly in the neck.

When we first meet someone, they look at our eyes, and we don't want them to just notice how tired and drawn we look. One of the side effects of ageing, is the deepening of the hollows below your eyes, and this natural sign of ageing happens because; as we age, the soft tissue loses volume. Also, lifestyle factors like stress and lack of sleep can result in dark circles around your eyes.

Volume replacement in the under eye area can reshape the face. Dermal fillers are now used to eliminate the hollows you may have and by filling in these depressions it can take away your tired look and lighten the dark circles around the eyes. Tear trough treatment using dermal fillers is a non-surgical procedure that can restore your looks instantly. The filler gets injected under the skin using very fine needles, re-creating the plump, firm skin that your under eye area used to have.

Benefits of tear trough treatment:

• Filler will banish under-eye bags
• It will reduce wrinkles 
• Add volume to the under-eye area
• Instant results that last 6-8 months
• Treatment will leave you feeling and looking younger

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic your treatment is in the safe, capable hands of Dr. Bassi, who has many years experience of injecting dermal fillers. He has a trained eye for what looks good and what will suit your face. It's important to avoid an overdone and unnatural look, and in the hands of Dr. Bassi, you will get natural-looking results to make you look younger and more refreshed.

Dermal Filler Injections for Eye Bags, Sunken Eyes & Tear Troughs - Nottingham, Derby, Chesterfield & Mansfield

There's nothing worse than spending ages doing your make-up, then looking in the mirror and all you notice is your tired looking eyes. Anyone can suffer from hollows under the eyes, although they inevitably worsen, the older you get. Having sunken eye hollows can cause you to feel disheartened when you notice the lost volume under the eyes. The volume loss can start in your early twenties and they tend to become more obvious with age.

The tear trough extends from the inner corner of the eye, making an arc shape, and continuing on to the outer corner, like a crescent-shaped area under your eye. The delicate skin under your eyes can sometimes seem dark, sunken and hollow and this is usually a result of either ageing, dehydration, or not getting enough sleep.

Why do we get dark circles and hollows under our eyes;

• Ageing.
• The most common reason is heredity.
• Volume loss caused by the loss of orbital fat under the lower eyelids .
• Collagen loss in the skin from age and sun damage.
• Dehydration causes a temporary loss of volume in the under-eye area.

A pronounced dip under the eye, creates shadows and can leave you looking tired and older than your years. Injecting dermal filler into the eye hollow can smooth the area, lessen the look of the dark circles and rejuvenate the area. Tear trough treatment places the dermal filler below the skin, which lifts up the tissues and makes the tear trough seem more shallow.

There are many terms used for sunken eyes:

• Hollow eyes
• Dark shadows
• Thin-looking skin beneath the eyes
• Dark circles beneath the eyes
• A tired face
• Tear trough hollows
• Under-eye hollows

The tear trough treatment is almost painless and it needs only a small amount of local anaesthetic numbing cream applied to the skin about 20 minutes before the injection treatment starts. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, Dr Bassi uses a cannula for tear trough injections, as this technique minimises bruising and is a gentler technique. The recovery time is very quick, although patients may experience some redness and swelling, but this can easily be minimised with cover up make up.

Ways to improve sunken eyes;

• Have 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
• To relieve tiredness, apply slices of cucumber on the eyes to cool the skin and improve the blood circulation.
• Warm or cool tea bags placed on the eyes can improve blood circulation.
• To flush out excess water and reduce the dark, puffy appearance under the eyes, eat foods such as watermelon, celery and cucumber.
• A diet of dark green vegetables, like; spinach, broccoli, kale and sprouts will help with deep sunken eyes.

Many people are unhappy with the depressions and shadows beneath the eyes, and dermal filler treatments to this area are a safe and effective alternative to surgery.

When we are young, the area under the eye is plump and firm, but as we age we start to lose volume and we develop a sunken dip under the bottom eyelash line to the upper cheek, giving us a tired, aged appearance.

Tear Troughs before and after treatment

The Naso-Jugal groove, also known as Tear Troughs are the sunken in, or hollowed out area below the eye, and these hollows are usually caused by the thinning of the skin and sagging of the cheek tissues. This happens because of the ageing process, genetics, unhealthy lifestyle or by sun damage.

Fresh looking eyes are a big asset to the overall appearance of a youthful, healthy face. Deep hollows under the eyes can seem very ageing and leave you looking like you haven't slept in weeks, and over time the hollows change in appearance and become longer, deeper and more shadowed.

Deep unsightly hollows can now be corrected with advanced dermal fillers. Filler treatment also helps to correct dark shadowing under the eye. Loss of volume in the tissue under the eye and above the cheek cause troughs to appear and they often look worse when we're tired or dehydrated.

The Tear Trough procedure is an ideal treatment for:

• Sunken eyes
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Tired looking eyes
• Eye bags

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we use Teosyal Redensity 2 for tear troughs treatment, and they cause less swelling which is a bonus when treating this delicate area. Hylauronic acid is a substance which naturally occurs in the body and these fillers are non animal based and are very safe to use. Fillers are an excellent option to correct mild to moderate hollowing, and can successfully mask the bags under the eyes.
