How Do Fillers Help Under Eye Bags?
If you’re worried about tired-looking eyes (no matter how much sleep you get or concealer you wear!), then under-eye bag fillers might be something to consider. In this blog, we explore how dermal filler can minimise the appearance of shadows, how long such treatment lasts, and how much it costs. So, let’s jump right in. How do fillers help under-eye bags?
By injecting dermal fillers for under-eye bags, a specialist can restore volume beneath the eyes. This helps to smooth out the area, reduce dark shadows, and create a more refreshed, youthful appearance – all without the need for any surgery.
Read on to learn more about how they work, how much you might expect to pay, and how often you’ll need eye bag fillers topped up.
How Do Under-Eye Bag Fillers Work?
Eye bag dermal fillers, also known as tear trough fillers, are injected in the area under the eye used to combat the sunken area under the eye (the tear trough), dark circles or signs of ageing . By plumping up the area, you reduce the ‘sunken’ area under the eye, making the area smoother and causing fewer shadows. By reducing the amount of shadow under the eye, you can look brighter and more awake.
Are Fillers Good For Under Eye Bags?
Yes! Unlike topical creams or serums that offer limited results, fillers for under-eye bags address the issue at a deeper level by restoring lost volume. They’re especially effective if your under-eye bags are caused by volume loss rather than fluid retention or fat deposits.
Many of our patients choose dermal fillers because they:
- Offer quick results (almost instant!)
- Require no surgery
- Are non-permanent and adjustable
Of course, it’s important to have a consultation to determine whether you’re a good candidate. For a free consultation with our expert clinician, Dr Owen Thomas, submit an enquiry below.: Contact us.

How Long Do Under-Eye Bag Fillers Last?
Typically, under-eye fillers last 18-24 months, although this can vary depending on the product used, your lifestyle, and your metabolism. In this area in a minority of people the filler can last many years, although can always be dissolved if causing any issues. Over time, the filler typically naturally breaks down and is safely absorbed by the body. Many patients choose to top up their treatment every few years to maintain results.
Do Under-Eye Fillers Work For Everyone?
Like many aesthetic treatments and dermal fillers, certain treatments won’t work for everyone – which is why it is a good idea to book a consultation with an expert before committing to anything. Under-eye or trough fillers may not be suitable if you have:
- Dark circles caused by lifestyle – such as lack of sleep or stress, this should be your first priority to address before getting fillers.
- Loose skin under and around the eyes – it may not be able to support the filler
- Puffy under-eye bags – as fillers increase the volume under the eye, it could make them appear worse.
- Any active skin infections or conditions around the eye – these will need to be treated before getting tear trough filler.
What Age Should You Start Using Under Eye/Tear Trough Fillers?
At any age, as long as you’re older than 18 – it’s completely up to you. Most patients are over 30 years old, which is when the tear trough starts to lose volume and look slightly sunken – this generally gets worse as you age. However, if you’re in your 20s and aren’t happy with your under-eye area, it might be time to book a consultation with your aesthetic clinic!
