Tear trough filler only possible three times a lifetime?

honeyk15
I was having a tear trough filler with hyaluronic filler and my plastic surgeon said that any dermal filler modifies the skin tissue in a bad way. It would cause scar tissue and therefore you can only have tear trough fillers three times a lifetime because otherwise you look worse than before. Is that true? I always thought dermal fillers increase collagen in a good way.
