So many people come to us with under eye issues wanting a quick fix. There are so many before and after posts on IG that make it look like an easy in & out treatment; however, tear troughs are a really difficult area to treat and therefore you need an experienced injector to properly assess & treat the area. There is often a lot going on in the undereye area and it is rarely just one “problem” that is seen. People are often dealing with volume loss and fine lines (or crepey skin) or a whole host of other combinations of issues.
Our experience also shows us that that the tear trough area can be one of the most underwhelming areas to treat- often because there’s a lot going on under the surface and in choosing an injector that is less experienced they may not properly understand how to address all of the concerns & ultimately may make things SO much worse.
We at BE want to ensure the best possible outcomes, align with best evidence & innovate our practice- in doing so we’ve chosen to offer a highly specialized & specific treatment that does wonders for the under-eye area.
This technique is commonly referred to as the “champagne technique” (who doesn’t love champagne?!) & combines hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers with your own platelet rich plasma (PRP). Similar to the technique used in the PRP microneedling treatment we offer, we take a small sample of your blood, spin it in a centrifuge to separate the whole blood components (red & white blood cells) from the plasma which holds the healing and collagen stimulating platelets. We then combine the PRP with the dermal filler using a specialized blending device that allows it to beautifully combine into a substance that looks just like champagne!
The champagne filler can then be injected anywhere in the face but our preferred treatment area is the tear troughs. Since filler alone doesn’t address crepey under eye tissue by choosing the champagne technique you are getting the volume boosting effects from the filler & the skin smoothing effects from the PRP. The benefits are both short & long-term & are an excellent option for tear troughs, so much so that we have chosen to use this technique exclusively when treating tear trough area.
Because May is one of our favorite months (with Nursing Week & Mother’s Day) we wanted to do a special for all the hard working mom’s & nurses out there… so, we are offering the champagne tear trough filler for the month of May for $999 which is a cost savings of just over $200!
