Tear trough is one of the common eye skin problems, many people mistake tear trough as eye bags, how much do you know about tear trough! Tear trough is a groove that appears on the lower eyelid from the inner corner of the eye to the side of the nose, and is caused by atrophy and sagging of the soft tissue at the lower edge of the orbital septum. In some cases, it may even extend to the cheeks. Because of the contrast between the sunken tear trough and the surrounding skin, the lower eyelid tissues look somewhat bloated and protruding, so it is easy to think of it as an eye bag, but in fact, it is just an illusion given by the deepening of the tear trough. The most direct way to distinguish between bags and tear troughs is to look at the lower eyelid from the side, where bags are bulging and tear troughs are sunken. How Tear troughs are formed Basically, it was thought in the early days that tear troughs were formed because of the junction of three different muscles around the eyes, or the different tightness between the skin of the eyelids and the lower cheeks; however, a recent article in the American Journal of Plastic Reconstruction suggested that tear troughs are caused by the intersection of different parts of the orbicularis oculi muscle, and even found that there is a so-called tear trough ligament, and that some people with stronger muscles or ligaments are prone to tear troughs. Tear troughs, coupled with the age factor, which causes the mid-cheek to sag, can also make tear troughs more and more obvious!
