Can fillers be used to treat tear troughs and if so, which one is the best?

Question:

Can fillers be used to treat tear troughs and if so, which one is the best?

Answer:

When applied by a skilled and experienced physician, fillers can be tremendously successful in treating the tear troughs. My preference is to use a hyaluronic acid filler for the tear trough area. Restylane is a great choice but requires a delicate hand and skilled eye to get the best results.
