Overview

What is male tear trough treatment?

Male tear trough treatment is tailored to soften hollowing beneath the eyes. The tear trough can look sunken or tired due to ageing, genetics or other individual factors.

Hyaluronic acid filler is carefully placed to restore volume in suitable patients with tear trough hollowing.

Masculine and subtle: the aim is a refreshed appearance that keeps masculine facial characteristics. Results vary.

How it works

How treatment is tailored to you

Facial anatomy varies, so treatment is planned around your bone structure, soft tissue and goals. The aim is a natural-looking appearance.

Dark circles can have several causes — genetics, ageing, stress, lack of sleep — and fillers are not suitable for every cause.

Are you a good candidate?

You may be a good candidate if you notice hollow under-eyes or a tired look even after rest, related to volume loss.

Fillers may not suit excessive skin laxity or fluid retention. A full consultation explains what you can realistically expect.

Treatment details

Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Improvement in fine lines may occur in some patients following volume restoration, although dermal fillers are not primarily intended for the treatment of superficial wrinkles.

However, they may not be suitable for individuals with excessive skin laxity or fluid retention.

Using a microcannula, the practitioner carefully places the filler in selected areas of the tear trough according to the treatment plan.

Aftercare and recovery

After under-eye filler treatment, you will receive personalised aftercare instructions.

These may include applying cool packs to help with swelling, avoiding strenuous activity and refraining from touching or rubbing the treated area.

Results, risks and limitations

Under-Eye Bags: Dermal fillers may improve the appearance of mild contour irregularities in selected patients but are not suitable for treating prominent fat pads or significant skin laxity.

Some initial changes may be visible following treatment, although the final appearance should be assessed after any swelling has settled.

Fillers vs skincare

Fillers add volume to selected areas, while topical products work differently. Filler results are temporary.

Good to know

Suitability is confirmed only after an in-person consultation with one of our practitioners.

This was my first experience getting lip filler, and I was honestly quite nervous about the potential side effects and whether the results would look natural. I’m so glad I chose this clinic—everything about my visit exceeded expectations. Dr. Anna was absolutely incredible. She was extremely professional, patient, and reassuring throughout the entire process. She took the time to listen to my concerns and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The results speak for themselves—my lips look beautifully natural, and I couldn’t be happier! From the moment I walked in, the experience was seamless. The receptionist was efficient, friendly, and very knowledgeable. A special thank you to clinic manager, who made me feel at ease. She spent a lot of time explaining every detail of the treatment, which really helped build my confidence and trust in the clinic. The transparency and care shown were truly impressive. I’ll definitely be coming back for future treatments and would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high-quality aesthetic care in a professional and supportive environment

I had a great experience with skin tigh tm. i had abs fibrosis post lipo bbl and lost also volume of fat on my bum. I decided to treat it with liposuction and j plasma. sadly all was made worst. i discover dr Ducu clinics online and my self confidence came back to me. I was very skeptical but results were beyond my wildest expectations. Dr Ducu clinics managed to remove my fibrosis and give me back my natural abdomen with skintight TM and at the same time fix my asymmetry and sagginess with DBL TM. 5 star and thank you Dr Ducu.i never thought after so many surgeries that only made things worse i would be able to be myself again and walk in a bikini 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I had my first BBL procedure done at Dr. Ducu’s clinic and the experience was beyond my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warmth and professionalism. The atmosphere is so calming, and the entire staff is incredibly kind and supportive. I instantly felt at ease. The procedure was performed by Dr. Anna,who was absolutely wonderful. She took the time to explain every step with patience and care, making sure I was comfortable throughout. Her gentle approach and reassuring presence made all the difference. I followed all the BBL aftercare instructions and everything has gone smoothly — no pain, no complications, just amazing results. I’m genuinely so happy with how natural and beautiful everything looks. This experience gave me a boost of confidence and joy. I will definitely return, and I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for quality, safety, and beautiful results. A truly 5-star experience from start to finish!
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything patients usually ask before booking an under-eye consultation. Can’t find your answer? Our team will help.

Tear trough filler may be suitable for adults with under-eye hollowing where shadowing is primarily caused by volume loss, provided the area is clinically suitable. Suitability depends on anatomy, medical history, previous treatments, skin quality, expectations and the presence of puffiness, pigmentation or fat prolapse. Treatment may not be appropriate for everyone and will be assessed during consultation.

At Dr. Ducu Clinics, the filler product is selected following consultation and clinical assessment. The practitioner considers the under-eye anatomy, medical history, previous treatments, product characteristics and agreed goals, and explains the proposed product, alternatives, potential benefits and risks before treatment.

An initial change may be visible immediately, but swelling or bruising can affect the early appearance. The settled result is usually assessed after around 2–3 weeks, although timing varies between patients.

Duration varies between patients and depends on the product and amount used, anatomy, metabolism and individual biological response. Results may remain visible for around 6–18 months, but a precise duration cannot be guaranteed, and filler may remain for longer than expected in some cases.

Your appointment is usually scheduled for approximately 60 minutes, including consultation. Once treatment has been discussed and suitability confirmed, the injection procedure itself usually takes approximately 20 minutes.

To ensure optimal healing and help avoid complications, strict aftercare is required. For the first 24 to 48 hours, you must avoid alcohol, vigorous exercise and extreme heat, including saunas and hot showers. Crucially, you must avoid massaging, pressing or manipulating the treated area for 14 days to allow the filler to settle. Some initial swelling and bruising are normal; however, we provide a dedicated clinical review and remain in contact to ensure you are healing as expected.

Tear trough filler may be considered for selected under-eye concerns principally related to volume loss, including:

  • Under-eye hollowing – Filler may add temporary volume to selected hollows caused by anatomy or volume loss.
  • Shadowing associated with hollowing – Reducing the depth of a hollow may soften the shadow it creates; filler does not treat every cause of dark circles.
  • Lower eyelid-to-cheek transition – In suitable patients, filler may soften the contour between the lower eyelid and upper cheek.
  • Selected contour asymmetry – Treatment may improve the appearance of mild contour differences where filler is clinically appropriate.

Tear trough filler injections may cause discomfort, pressure or stinging. A topical anaesthetic may be used where appropriate, but individual experiences vary and a pain-free treatment cannot be guaranteed.

As with any injectable procedure, tear trough filler carries risks and side effects. Common temporary effects include swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness, discomfort and asymmetry. Under-eye filler can also cause prolonged or recurrent swelling, visible or palpable filler, lumps, irregularity, migration, discolouration or a blue-grey Tyndall effect, infection, inflammatory reactions and granulomas. While extremely rare, vascular occlusion (blockage of a blood vessel) can potentially lead to tissue necrosis or irreversible vision loss. This underscores why our doctors prioritise deep anatomical expertise and safe cannula techniques.
