UNDER-EYE FILLER FOR HOLLOWING
“You look tired” is rarely what anyone wants to hear, especially when they feel fine. If a hollow under your eyes is creating that shadow, tear trough filler might be an option. But under-eyes are a delicate area, and filler is not the answer to every dark circle or eye bag. We will take our time assessing you and give you an honest recommendation, even if that means saying no to filler.
Appointments available in Leytonstone, East London.
TREATMENT COST
From £350, subject to clinical assessment and the current booking price.
SESSIONS NEEDED
Usually one, with a review after 2 weeks if needed.
RESULTS
Immediate. Swelling can temporarily affect the appearance, and under-eye filler can sometimes cause longer-lasting puffiness.
Tear trough filler is used for carefully selected hollows between the lower eyelid and cheek. Adding support there may soften the shadow that makes the under-eye look darker. If the darkness comes from pigmentation, puffiness, visible blood vessels or loose skin, filler is unlikely to be the right fix. We will explain the difference in plain English.
We take under-eye suitability seriously. The skin here is thin, and persistent swelling, visible filler and other complications are possible. We will assess your under-eye area and mid-face, talk through the risks and alternatives, and recommend treatment only if the likely benefit makes sense for you. Cheek filler (planned page) or a different approach may be more appropriate for some people.
Many dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid, but the under-eye area needs its own careful assessment. We will never assume filler is right here just because it can help elsewhere.
It may soften a hollow or shadow caused by volume loss beneath the eyes in a carefully selected client. It is not a general treatment for all dark circles, eye bags or tired-looking eyes. The cause of your concern determines whether filler is likely to help.
Your appointment will always start with a consultation so we can chat through your concerns, take a look at the treatment area and understand what you’d like to achieve. We will take time to understand what has been bothering you, explain what this treatment can realistically do for you, and answer any questions you have.
Everything is tailored 100% to you, and your unique goals. If you decide to go ahead, we'll apply a numbing cream, if appropriate, and begin the treatment. We won't start until you're 100% happy. At the end of the appointment you’ll also be given clear aftercare advice so you know exactly what to do afterwards and how to get the best from your results.

Aesthetic and skin treatments can feel daunting when you have never visited a clinic before. At Facebox London, you will not be expected to know any terminology or make a decision before you feel ready. Our goal is to make you as comfortable as possible. We pride ourselves on this in our friendly East London clinic.
Facebox London is based in Leytonstone, London, providing treatments in a private, welcoming clinic setting, with free parking nearby. The location is convenient for clients travelling from nearby areas including:
Only some dark circles are caused by a hollow that filler may improve. Pigmentation, visible blood vessels, puffiness and skin changes need a different assessment and may not improve with filler.
No. We assess the area carefully and will tell you if the risk of swelling or an unsatisfactory result makes another option more sensible.
Bruising, swelling, unevenness or visible filler can occur; swelling may sometimes persist. Rare but serious complications can occur with dermal fillers. We will explain the specific risks, alternatives and what to do if you have a concern after treatment before you consent.
