What Are Tear Trough Fillers?

Tear Trough Fillers are a specialized form of dermal filler designed to address volume loss and hollowing in the under-eye area. Comprised of hyaluronic acid, these fillers work by replenishing the soft tissue in the tear troughs—the delicate depressions that run from the inner corners of your eyes downward. By restoring volume, Tear Trough Fillers help smooth out the transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek, reducing the appearance of dark circles and tired eyes. At pēkomd®, our board-certified providers assess your unique anatomy and use precision techniques to inject the filler in a way that enhances your natural contours while preserving your distinct expression. This approach ensures that your results are subtle, effective, and in harmony with the rest of your facial features.

What to Expect During Your Tear Trough Filler Procedure at pēkomd

Your journey with Tear Trough Fillers begins with a detailed consultation at one of our Ohio locations, where our board-certified provider will carefully assess your under-eye anatomy and discuss your aesthetic concerns. We take time to understand your goals and explain how the filler will restore volume, soften hollowing, and diminish dark circles. Once you decide to proceed, the treatment itself is typically straightforward and performed in a comfortable office setting.

On the day of your treatment, the target area is thoroughly cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure maximum comfort. Using a very fine needle, the provider injects the hyaluronic acid-based filler precisely into the tear trough region. Most patients report only a slight pinch or pressure during the procedure, which generally takes between 20 to 30 minutes.

The injection process is tailored to create a balanced, natural enhancement that blends seamlessly with your facial contours. After the procedure, you can usually return to your regular activities almost immediately, although we advise avoiding strenuous facial activities and massaging the area for at least 24 hours to allow the product to settle optimally. Our team at pēkomd® provides you with personalized aftercare instructions to support your recovery and maximize the longevity of your results.

Recovering After Your Tear Trough Filler Treatment

One of the key advantages of Tear Trough Fillers is their minimal downtime. In the first few hours after treatment, you might notice some slight redness, swelling, or minor bruising in the under-eye area—common side effects that typically resolve quickly. Most patients experience a smooth recovery, with any transient effects subsiding within 24 to 48 hours. During this period, we recommend that you avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area and refrain from strenuous activities that could disturb the filler. Additionally, using cold compresses can help minimize any residual swelling. As your skin begins to adjust to the new volume, you'll gradually see an improvement in the appearance of dark circles and hollows, resulting in a brighter, more youthful look.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for Tear Trough Fillers?

Tear Trough Fillers are an excellent option for individuals who wish to address under-eye hollows and dark circles without undergoing surgery. Ideal candidates are typically in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking subtle enhancements that rejuvenate their appearance.

If you notice that your under-eye area appears hollow or tired, and you'd like a refreshed look without significant downtime, this treatment could be right for you. It is important to have a thorough consultation to assess your skin's elasticity and overall facial structure, ensuring that the treatment plan is well-suited to your needs. At pēkomd®, our board-certified providers are dedicated to tailoring treatments that complement your natural features, enhancing your appearance in a way that feels authentically you.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure.
