Tear trough fillers use a soft hyaluronic acid filler to fill the groove that runs from the inner corner of the eye down towards the cheek, reducing hollows and the shadows that look like dark circles. At Egg Clinic in Sinsa, Gangnam, a doctor injects carefully, often with a cannula; results are visible straight away and typically last around 9–12 months or longer.

What are tear trough fillers?
The tear trough is the groove between the lower eyelid and the upper cheek. When it deepens, because of genetics or volume loss with age, it casts a shadow that can look like a dark circle and make you appear tired even after a good night's sleep. Concealer often cannot hide a shadow caused by a hollow, because the problem is volume rather than colour.
Tear trough fillers use a soft, low-swelling hyaluronic acid filler placed deep along the groove, frequently with a blunt cannula to reduce bruising. Only a small amount is needed, and a conservative approach helps avoid puffiness. HA filler here can be dissolved if needed. Our under eye fillers page covers the wider under-eye area, and dark circle treatments address pigmentation and thin skin.
Who is a good candidate for tear trough fillers?
- A visible groove or hollow under the eyes
- Shadowing that looks like dark circles
- A tired look despite enough sleep
- Good skin quality and only mild under-eye bags
Tear trough filler is less suitable if you have prominent fat bags, significant puffiness or fluid retention, very thin or loose lower-lid skin, or dark circles caused mainly by pigmentation, since filler can make these look worse. It should also wait during pregnancy, with eye or skin infection, or with a filler allergy. The doctor will check the cause of your under-eye concern first.

How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor assesses whether hollowness, fat bags, pigmentation or thin skin is causing your under-eye concern.
-
Numbing
Numbing cream is applied, and the filler usually contains lidocaine for comfort.
-
Injection
A small amount of soft filler is placed deep along the groove, often with a blunt cannula, then gently smoothed.
-
Aftercare
Mild swelling or bruising can last a few days. Sleep with your head slightly raised the first night and avoid rubbing your eyes, saunas and alcohol for 24–48 hours.
Tips for international patients
- Have tear trough filler at least a few days before your flight or an important event.
- Send close-up photos of your under-eye area on WhatsApp so the doctor can check suitability.
- Avoid salty food and alcohol the night before and after to limit puffiness.
- Bring sunglasses in case of mild bruising while sightseeing.
Frequently asked questions
How long do tear trough fillers last?
Results typically last around 9–12 months, and sometimes longer, because the area moves relatively little.
Do tear trough fillers hurt?
Numbing cream and lidocaine keep most people comfortable. A cannula is often used, which feels like pressure rather than sharp pain.
Will tear trough filler remove dark circles?
It improves shadows caused by hollowness. Dark circles from pigmentation or visible blood vessels need other treatments, which the doctor can suggest.
Can tear trough filler cause puffiness?
Puffiness can happen if too much filler is used or in people prone to fluid retention, which is why a small, careful amount is used. HA filler can be dissolved if needed.
What is the difference between tear trough and under eye fillers?
Tear trough filler targets the inner groove specifically, while under eye fillers can treat the wider area including the lid-cheek junction. The terms are often used interchangeably.
How much do tear trough fillers cost in Seoul?
The price depends on the filler and amount used, so the doctor confirms it at consultation. See our published prices on the filler price list.
