What should I know about tear trough filler beforehand?

Three things matter most before you book: the procedure, the comfort level, and the cost. Healthline covers each.

Understand the procedure first

Healthline says it’s important to understand the procedure and potential complications before getting the treatment. Three sources are worth reading for that: a meta-analysis of adverse events reported after hyaluronic acid filler injections, a systematic review of safety and complications in facial wrinkle correction, and the FDA's dermal filler dos and don'ts.

What it feels like

Healthline says the pain of an under-eye filler is usually manageable and lasts for only a few minutes.

What it costs

Healthline says the total cost of tear trough fillers depends on how many syringes you need. Ask for the syringe count in writing before you agree to a price.

What the consultation can change

The plan can change at the consultation itself, once the injector has looked at your under-eye area. Bring your questions about complications to that visit.
