Very sunken tear through

Question

I have a very sunken tear through but I have a lot of water retention under eyes (sometimes I wake up with huge eye bags that are full of fluid and last for days, while other days I don't have any eye bag), I always have deep hollow tear throughs. I don't want to have surgery as I don't always have eye bags. I would like to fill the tear through, but as I am so prone to under eye edema, I am afraid the filler will make it worse. Is there any other option left to treat my problem?

Your question is a very good one, but it would’ve been so much better if you also had submitted a photograph of yourself. As a rule, fillers are not a good choice for a tear trough and especially a deep one. Nothing beats using your own fat. Fat grafting, when done by an expert in fat grafting techniques Plastic Surgeon produces beautiful, natural and practically permanent results. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery.

In addition to visiting your doctor to determine why you may be experiencing under eye swelling you may want to explore Renuva.  This product is similar to fillers in that you have some improvement that can be noted right away.  It differs however in that the product is gradually replaced with your own fat which gives longer lasting results.  See an elite injector near you to learn more.
