The skin around the eyes is prone to various problems, including fine lines at the corners of the eyes, dark circles under the eyes, and tear grooves under the eyes, etc. As the skin around the eyes is relatively delicate, the signs of a person's aging often start from the eyes. These eye skin problems will affect a person's demeanor and give people a feeling of aging.
Among them, the tear groove problem has always been the focus of beauty seekers. The tear groove presents a deep "ditch" and often appears with dark circles. Even if this tear groove is covered with concealer, it is difficult to cover it perfectly, and it will still stand out under the light.
The appearance of the tear groove makes the eyes look sunken and tired. This phenomenon not only affects personal image, but also may make people look older than their actual age. Therefore, many people hope to achieve the effect of removing tear grooves through medical beauty treatment.
Common treatments on the market currently include hyaluronic acid filling, autologous fat filling, etc., but they may have problems such as uneven absorption and short maintenance time. In recent years, PDO thread lifting technology, as a new facial correction technology, has attracted more and more attention. This treatment can continuously stimulate collagen regeneration, gradually improve the depth of the tear trough, and make the skin under the eyes smoother.
What is Tear Trough Thread?
Tear trough thread is a minimally invasive cosmetic technology that embeds absorbable threads, including PDO, PCL and PLLA, around the tear trough. These threads can stimulate collagen proliferation and ultimately weaken and remove the tear trough.
These threads were first used in the medical field, for cardiovascular surgery, and for absorbable sutures. These threads will not immediately stimulate the production of collagen after insertion, so the effect will not be seen immediately after procedure. These threads will gradually break down and metabolize in the body. In this process, they will continuously promote skin repair and produce more collagen, so they can be used for facial wrinkle removal and rejuvenation.
Compared with traditional tear trough filling methods, eye thread lifting does not provide immediate filling and support effects, but gradually promotes the regeneration of collagen in the skin during the degradation process, making the skin under the eyes tighter and fuller, and reducing the degree of tear grooves under the eyes.
Causes of Tear Trough
The causes of tear grooves are varied. Finding out the causes of tear grooves can better find the right method to achieve the purpose of removing tear grooves. Tear grooves refer to the sunken grooves extending from the inner corner of the eye to the cheek, which often appear with dark circles, making the eyes look tired and old. The formation of tear grooves is mainly caused by the following reasons.
Aging of the skin caused by age: With age, the collagen and elastic fibers in the skin decrease, causing the skin to sag and collapse. As the skin under the eyes is tender, it is more likely to sag, resulting in tear grooves.
Excessive fat loss under the eyes: The fat around the eye sockets is lost with age, and the fat under the eye bags decreases, resulting in depressions. The depressions bring a deep tear groove, affecting the exquisiteness of the eyes.
Reasons for bone structure: Due to genetic factors, some people are born with sunken orbital bones, making the tear groove more obvious. This situation may exist even when they are young, and it is difficult to improve with skin care products. It is best to improve it through medical beauty.
Thin skin: Some people have thin skin, the skin around the eyes is thinner, and there is less subcutaneous fat. Over time, the skin's support capacity decreases, or staying up late for a long time and bad living habits may also accelerate skin aging and deepen the tear groove.
Principle of Tear Trough Threads
PDO eye thread lift uses eye threads. This kind of thread is composed of a blunt tip, which is not easy to puncture the blood vessels under the eye. The length of the needle is shorter than that of ordinary PDO threads to prevent injury to the eyeball during insertion. More doctors use PCL and PLLA eye threads because these threads are white, can fit the skin color better, and can have a whitening effect under the eyes.
Tear groove filling with PDO threads play the support of PDO thread and the characteristics of stimulating collagen proliferation to achieve the firmness of the skin under the eyes and improve the tear groove. Its main principles include:
Provide physical support: PDO threads can play a role similar to that of a stent. Generally, operators will directly fill the depression of the tear groove with multiple threads. These threads will stimulate more collagen in the future to achieve the effect of removing the tear groove.
Collagen stimulation: During the degradation of PDO thread in the body, it stimulates the production of new collagen, thereby enhancing skin elasticity and making the tear groove filling effect more stable and lasting.
Improve dark circles under the eyes: PCL and PLLA eye thread, because of their own white color, can play a whitening effect after insertion. On the contrary, PDO eye thread, because of its own darker color, may make dark circles worse.
Who is Suitable for Tear Trough Threads?
Tear groove filling with PDO threads is suitable for the following groups of people:
Mild to moderate tear groove: suitable for people with shallow tear groove, slightly loose skin but no obvious fat loss, can effectively improve the depression phenomenon.
Fear of injectable fillers: Some patients have concerns about hyaluronic acid or autologous fat filling, have allergies, or are afraid of overfilling and filler displacement, and prefer non-injectable minimally invasive treatments.
Hoping for a more natural improvement: Compared with hyaluronic acid filling, PDO thread lifting has a more natural effect, which can gradually improve the tear trough and restore the skin to a youthful state.
For those who need long-term effects: PDO thread lifting can stimulate the production of collagen, last longer, and have a more stable effect.
Operation Steps of PDO Thread Lifting to Fill Tear Trough
PDO thread lifting to fill tear trough is a minimally invasive treatment, which usually includes the following steps:
Preoperative assessment of the eye: The doctor will evaluate the degree of tear grooves and skin conditions of the patient, communicate with the patient about the expected effect, and develop a personalized treatment plan. Determine the location and general direction of thread insertion, and use a marker to mark the location if necessary.
Skin disinfection and anesthesia: Use a blunt cannula to inject anesthesia to reduce discomfort during treatment and increase the comfort of injection.
PDO thread implantation: insert the PDO thread in the direction of the tear trough. After the thread is embedded, pull out the needle to ensure that the insertion position is the tear trough position.
Postoperative care: disinfect and stop bleeding at the place where the PDO thread is inserted, and use cold compress to care for the eye to prevent redness and swelling in the treatment area.
Advantages of Tear Trough Threads
Minimally invasive and highly safe: PDO thread material is degradable, harmless to the human body, and does not require large-area incisions, with little trauma and a short recovery period. This is one of the advantages of thread carving;
Natural improvement effect: Compared with hyaluronic acid filling, PDO thread lifting can promote the regeneration of its own collagen and gradually restore the skin to a youthful state. It will not have the effect of overfilling like fillers, and the effect is softer and more natural.
Long-term improvement effect: The collagen regeneration effect of thread carving can maintain the improvement effect for 6-24 months, among which PCL material can maintain it for a longer time.
