A dermatologist-led guide to tear trough filler – who it suits, how it works, what to expect, and
how Dr. Parth Thakkar plans safe, natural results at Dermacode, Vesu, Surat.
Do people ask if you are tired when you have slept well? Dark, hollow-looking circles under the eyes are
one of the most common aesthetic concerns, and one of the most misdiagnosed. Often the darkness is
not pigment at all but a shadow cast by a hollow that forms as the area under the eye loses volume.
Under eye filler (also called tear trough filler) is a quick, non-surgical treatment that softens that hollow.
At Dermacode, Vesu, Surat, it is planned and performed by Dr. Parth Thakkar (MD Dermatology),
because this is a delicate area where technique matters more than anything else.
What Is Under Eye Filler?
Under eye filler uses a soft, smooth hyaluronic acid gel – a substance the skin already produces – placed
in tiny amounts beneath the skin to restore lost volume in the tear trough. The result is a smoother
transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek, and a more rested look. Because hyaluronic acid fillers
can be dissolved if needed, they are widely preferred for this area.
Why Do Under-Eye Hollows and Dark Circles Appear?
- Natural ageing – gradual loss of fat and collagen under the eye and in the upper cheek
- Genetics – some people have naturally deep tear troughs, even in their twenties
- Weight loss, stress and poor sleep – can make hollows more visible
- Sun exposure and thin skin – make underlying shadows and blood vessels easier to see
Is Under Eye Filler Right for Your Dark Circles?
Not every dark circle is caused by a hollow. A proper assessment decides whether filler is the answer:
The Under Eye Filler Procedure at Dermacode
- Consultation & face assessment
Your concerns, medical history and facial anatomy are reviewed. Photos may be taken for comparison. - Numbing and preparation
A topical numbing cream is applied and the area is cleaned, so the treatment is comfortable. - Precise filler placement
Tiny amounts of hyaluronic acid filler are placed in the right plane under the skin, using fine technique to
avoid lumps. - Review and aftercare
The area is checked for symmetry, and you leave with clear aftercare instructions. The session typically
takes around 30 minutes
Results Timeline: What to Expect?
You will see a difference straight away, though swelling can hide the final result for a few days to two
weeks. Under eye filler usually lasts around 9 to 12 months, and sometimes longer, depending on the
product, your metabolism and how the area is treated
Is Under Eye Filler Safe?
The under-eye area is thin and has delicate blood vessels, so it is considered a higher-skill area to treat.
In experienced hands the treatment is well tolerated. Possible effects include:
- Temporary swelling, redness or bruising
- Lumpiness or a bluish tint if filler is placed too superficially (one reason technique matters)
- Rarely, serious complications involving blood vessels – which is why this should only be done by a
trained doctor who knows how to respond - Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with an enzyme if a correction is needed
Treatment is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with an active infection near the eyes,
or when expectations are unrealistic. Always tell your doctor about blood thinners and past reactions to
fillers
Aftercare Tips
- Avoid rubbing or pressing the area for the first day
- Skip heavy exercise, saunas and steam for about 24-48 hours
- Sleep with your head slightly raised for the first night or two
- Avoid alcohol for a day, as it can increase bruising
- Use daily sunscreen, and a gentle cold compress only if your doctor advises it

Frequently Asked Questions
Does under eye filler hurt?
Skin | Hair | Lasers | Aesthetics
Most people feel mild pressure or a pinch. Numbing cream is used to keep the treatment comfortable.
How long does under eye filler last?
Usually around 9 to 12 months, sometimes longer. Gradual fading is normal, and top-ups are planned as
needed.
Will it look puffy or unnatural?
When done in small, carefully placed amounts, the result is a smoother, rested look. Overfilling is what
causes puffiness.

No. It helps hollow-related shadows. Pigmentation-type dark circles need different treatment, which your
doctor will advise.
