What are tear troughs?Updated a year ago

Also called tear trough rejuvenation it is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment for lower eyelid dark circles or dark hollows (also referred to as 'tear troughs' or 'tear trough defects').

In the lower eyelid a weakening of the orbital septum, and in the cheek area (the 'mid-face') a loss of soft tissue volume, tend to accentuate the appearance of the lower bony orbital margin which lies between the lower eyelid and the cheek. This also leads to the appearance of lower eyelid fat pockets ('eye bags') and together these can lead to a dark shadow or hollow beneath the eyes (a 'tear trough defect').
