Frequently Asked Questions

Tear troughs are hollows under the eyes that area a result of a loss of fat in the infraorbital compartment. Everyone has tear troughs but some can be deeper than others. This happens because of aging but sometimes can be a genetic characteristic.

Tear trough filler is a very safe treatment in the right hands, but it can go wrong. Inexperienced injectors can overfill the area resulting in puffiness due to impaired lymphatic drainage. Bruising is also a potential side effect, more likely when not using a cannula. Contrary to popular belief, under eye filler does NOT cause blindness. Be sure to go to an experienced injector who knows their anatomy!

See our price list for tear trough filler prices, but as of january 2023 tear trough filler is €600. As the most technically difficult area to treat with filler along with nose filler, it is usually best only to be done by someone with several years experience and several thousand procedures under their belt.

Tear trough injectibles are another term for tear trough filler. These are injections of a hyaluronic acid under and at the side of the eye that fill the hollow that develops with age and is present from childhood in some people.

If you use a cannula there is no recovery time with tear trough filler. The risk of bruising is very low and as we always under treat to preemp swelling, any swelling means the result will become slightly better. If a bruise does develop which is the case in less than 5% of our treatments, it is usually smallar than a spot and can be covered with makeup.

Hyaluronic acid is a very safe and hypoallergenic compound so doesn’t cause allergic reactions like fillers in decades gone by. The only remaining side effects are over treatment by inexperienced doctors or bruises which can also be more likely in the hands of inexperienced doctors or injectors who don’t use cannulas where indicated.

Tear trough filler works instantly, as the hyaluronic acid fills the under eye hollow physically and immediately, you can see the results straight away. There is a tendency to swell perhaps a further 5% which can take a day or two.

Tear trough filler is technically indicated to last for only 6-12 months, however in our experience, due to how immobile the under eye area is, filler can stay here undisturbed for a lot longer than other areas. Under eye filler can last for several years.

Tear trough filler is different to well known anti wrinkle injection drugs as it doesnt have a direct impact on the muscles. It will help fine lines by reflating loose skin but doesnt change the way muscles move.

Large volumes of filler must be avoided for safety reasons. The filler selected must also be suitable to the very thin skin in the region. To avoid complications a thin filler is used and placed in a flat, sheet like manner. Needles can be used in certain instances but in most using a cannula and some light massaging is best. A cannula is more suitable than a needle in most cases because it minimises the chances of bruising, and allows our doctors to inject filler flatly in multiple areas with only one injection point.

Tear trough filler addresses several problems. Bone recession, along with sagging or drooping of the fat pads in and around the eyes detract from a fresh eye appearance. Volume deficits that arise as part of these natural ageing processes contribute greatly to a tired overall look. Discolouration and dark circles often result as the skin is placed under duress.

The aim of Tear Trough Filler treatment is always to correct these volume deficits and improve the tone of the skin around the eyes. While a natural tear trough treatment will improve discolouration we also have medical grade creams which will significantly restore the condition of the skin around the eyes. Also anti wrinkle injections can be used with tear trough filler for even better results.

By carefully placing dermal filler into deficits, we subtly restore volume to rejuvenate the appearance of the area. Tear trough filler can be placed in specific deficit points or it can be injected a sheet like manner to ensure the volume added improves the area in a natural way.

The number of people looking to address these concerns has increased dramatically recently thanks to improvements in product technology (the Juvederm Vycross Range) and technique which lead to better results. No longer is surgery the only way to fix tired eyes.

Small amounts go a long way. Typically tear trough fillers only need 1ml of juvederm high quality vycross fillers like volift or volbella. Thats 0.5ml per eye. This is only 1/5th of a teaspoon, or put another way 1/10 of a teaspoon under each eye!

Your under eyes will get results that restore an even and filled out under eye area. The skin tone and colour of the skin should also improve following the injection of hyaluronic acid as water is drawn to the area.

We use only high quality FDA approved products with a preference for the Juvederm Vycross range of dermal fillers because we can stand by their safety and efficacy.

I’m with with Amara Clinic since 2010, and I’m so satisfied with their services and affordable procedures and products. Dr. Paul, Dr. Mylene and other doctors are very well experienced and efficient.

Dr Mylene is fantastic..she really listens to your concerns and makes sure you get the best results possible. I have had several treatments at Amara with Dr Paul and more recently with Dr Mylene and the treatments are of the highest quality and thr Dr's are so friendly and professional. I have tried other places for my treatments as I live a good distance away from the clinic , but I always return to Amara .

My mom and I went here recently for hydra facials and were so impressed! Everything was explained in detail with plenty of time allocated to the appointment, no rushing, absolutely no hard sell on products and kind service all the way around! My mom saw Gráinne and I saw Julia - both of them were amazing and got us set up with routines that are suitable and simple to follow. Skin is glowing! Robin at reception was so helpful and friendly and got us booked in again for follow ups - can’t wait!

I have had quite a few Hydrafacials at different clinics in Dublin, and back home in Copenhagen as well, but this clinic is so far the best.The therapist was lovely and she just really knew what she was doing. She made me feel very comfortable and relaxed while guiding me through the treatment.I also had a lot of questions regarding skin care and products because I have had some problems with acne and she took her time to answer all my questions without making me feel pressured to buy the products she was recommending me, which is important to me.I found my visit to the clinic to be excellent. The staff was welcoming and well-trained.Most importantly, my skin just felt and looked amazing afterwards.

I love this clinic!! I have been going here for over 5 years and although it is a huge trek for me I won’t ever go anywhere else for my skincare. The doctors and staff are so friendly and helpful and I cannot stress this point enough. I am not the kind of girl that gets regular facials or would follow a strict 6 step nightly skin regime. In fact, I would normally find this type of place daunting because I often feel judgement for not “being better” with this stuff. At Amara I have never felt like this. Everyone there always makes me feel so comfortable and genuinely wants to help me feel the best I can. I haven’t yet mentioned the results which are always incredible from the few things I’ve had done there . I am always so happily surprised by the results and the clinic is always so amazing with follow up appointments if necessary. I cannot vouch enough for this clinic!

From the moment you enter the clinic, you are greeted with lovely staff, the atmosphere is very calm and welcoming.A huge thank you to Siobhan for doing my hydrafacial, she made me feel very comfortable. Before the treatment she thoroughly explained the process and it's very evident that she is passionate in the work she does, she kept me informed of my facial every step of the way, and helped target my skin concerns along with great product recommendations. After my facial, I could instantly notice the difference on my skin.I will definitely reccomend amara clinic to my girlfriends and I look forward to coming back for more treatments.Thanks again!Ahlam

An unusual but very important review....Amara was very highly recommended to me by a colleague. I purchased a €2,000 voucher from Amara for my wife as a 50th birthday present. Needless to say, she was ecstatic. Due to Covid 19 financial difficulties, we reluctantly decided not to utilise the voucher and to request a refund....6 months later. These are terribly difficult times for businesses, so I felt more than a little embarassed and not very hopeful. I am 50 years old and have been around the block a few times, I have never encountered such professionalism and simple humanity. Never a question, I was fully refunded to my huge relief and complete satisfaction. This company clearly has a wonderful and primary customer care ethos. Their top, middle and bottom line is customer care - pure class. Sincerely, thank you Ronan and your team. We most certainly will be back.

My first visit to Amara (it won't be the last!) was excellent. Paul has such an easy manner, I felt very comfortable and at ease immediately. Everything was explained in detail so I knew exactly what was being done and why. There was no pushy sales technique - if anything it is evident that they will only do work that will benefit you - you won't pay for unnecessary treatments and any treatments you do have will be done with an emphasis on looking natural rather than 'done'. Very happy.

I can recommend Amara.Carolina makes you feel very welcome as soon as you arrive at this clinic.I had an Hydrafacial with Joanie that I will definitely indulge in again and also availed of her advice on their range of skin care products.I felt reassured by Dr Pauls pleasant unrushed manner and in particular with his conservative approach and natural results.He takes the time to explain what he is doing and why he thinks you need it which I like.I will definitely return.

I have been to Amara clinic a few times and the experience is always great. Today I had a Hydrafacial with Siobhan and I couldn't recommend it more. She took the time to review my skin routine, habits and explained to me the science behind our skin. The facial itself was great and my skin is feeling amazing. I will definitely be back!

Friendly, helpful staff that seem genuine.I didn't feel 'pushed' into buying products / services (which is what usually happens!)I am THAT person that asks LOTS of questions - *pedantic *, I see detail in everything and easily pick flaws, but was grateful for the professionalism here. Appreciated they listened and answered my dozen questions... Usually dont take the time to write reviews but the clinic followed up with a text and I figure they deserve it! Thanks Guys - I will be back :-)

I'm more than thrilled about my decsion to go to Amara for lip fillers. I've been researching for a few years but was always to nervous to follow through with the procedure. Dr. Paul is very thorough and honest. He explained everything he would do to achieve the desired result. I asked him for subtlety and thats exactly what I received. I couldn't be happier with my filler treatment and my lips look 100% natural, which was exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much Dr. Paul!

I had my first hyrdafacial treatment here, and loved it so much I’ve already booked another! The treatment itself is amazing, my skin was left feeling wonderful, and the benefits were noticeable straight away, and I my skin was noticeably soft and smooth for several weeks after the treatment. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. My therapist Joanie was lovely, and incredibly knowledgeable of the whole process, and really thorough when reviewing my skin needs. I would highly recommend the whole experience with Amara :)

I would highly recommend Dr Paul Munsanje for tear trough filler. I'm so delighted with the results! I had become quite sunken and dark under the eyes, after one visit there was an immediate and significant improvement. I no longer look tired all the time and don't need anymore concealer. There was a small amount of bruising for a few days afterwards but nothing that makeup couldn't hide. A real natural look - happy days!!

Had an amazing hydrafacial from Siobhan yesterday. She’s meticulous in her work and incredibly good at breaking down the science of skin into simple terms so I understood exactly where my skin was at, what she was going to do to it, and what I could do going forward to improve it. As well as this she was a complete dote and easy to chat to. I felt really well looked after by herself and the front of house guys AND my skin looks incredible, I didn’t think skin could be this smooth. Highly recommend.

Absolutely recommend Amara and Dr Paul Munsanje for providing a truly professional and warm service with fantastic results. Was particularly impressed by a tear trough filler which was stunning in its immediate effect and virtually painless. Found Paul to be really experienced, informative and understanding, felt very comfortable having the procedures and also done easily on my lunch hour. Most importantly, he did exactly what I wanted but achieved a far better result than I was aware was possible, and made it seem so easy.. so very impressive. I feel it’s the best money I’ve spent in years, very very happy. Did try a different clinic a few years ago and didn’t find it very good but feel Amara is in a different league, will definitely go back to Amara. All of the clinic are just lovely and welcoming so I would also credit them with a great team in-house. Well worth a visit.
