Before answering this question, let’s first explain “What is a tear trough? Where is it located?” Look at this comparison chart: You can clearly see the location of the tear trough by the label on the chart – it starts from the inner corner of the eye and extends to the lower lid, near the side of the nose. Tear troughs can exist alone, or they can be accompanied by bags under the eyes. Tear troughs are not just a “furrow”, but there are different ways to remove them. Once they appear, they cannot be removed on their own, even with expensive eye creams. Since it is a depression, then we can fill it, depending on the actual situation, choose different methods to deal with it. For example: 1, born with thin skin and little orbital septum fat. See the picture below (it looks like this): there are two options: hyaluronic acid or autologous fat filling. Hyaluronic acid: In addition to the advantages of convenience, speed, and no scar, hyaluronic acid is very suitable for thin skin areas like the lower lid. Moreover, the tear trough is not large in size, so the amount needed is not too much and the result is ideal. Autologous fat transplantation: Tear troughs are caused by fat deficiency, so it is good to use autologous fat to supplement it. After the fat filler survives, the effect is long-lasting, so it is more tedious than hyaluronic acid filler and requires a certain recovery period, but it is a more ideal improvement method in the long run. The fat contains multipotent differentiated cells, which can replenish fibroblasts and promote collagen regeneration, so it can improve dark circles, reduce fine lines and slow down the aging of the lower lids to a certain extent. Both hyaluronic acid and autologous fat fillers can improve the condition of tear trough, how to choose? If you want to have a longer lasting effect, it is recommended to choose autologous fat filler for the tear trough. If you want to recover earlier, you can choose hyaluronic acid to fill the tear trough. 2, aging: with the increase of age, soft tissue will gradually atrophy, coupled with the sagging of soft tissue in the face, deepening the tear trough. Eye bags bulge and aggravate the tear trough. For those who have both bags and tear troughs, it is recommended to choose: orbital fat release surgery. Through an incision near the lower eyelashes, the fat from the bulging protruding bags is released and then laid flat to the tear trough, so that the bags are gone and the tear trough disappears. The orbital septal fat itself is small and delicate in texture, so it is naturally smooth after being released and spread to the tear trough; moreover, the blood supply continues to function after the orbital septal fat is spread to the tear trough, so there is no need to worry about fat absorption, and the result is ideal. Finally, one more word: If the tear trough is of the aging type and the sagging of various parts is more serious, then it is still necessary to solve the problem of fat pad, muscle and skin tissue sagging through combined treatment in order to achieve a more satisfactory improvement.
