The area between the lower eyelid and upper cheek—commonly called the tear-trough region—is naturally delicate.
With time, reduced bone density, fat-pad descent and thinner skin can create visible hollows or shadows.
Dr Allison carefully evaluates the under-eye and surrounding mid-face to understand each patient’s anatomy before recommending any non-surgical treatments.
Some non-surgical options for under-eye concerns may involve prescription-only medicines or medical devices. In accordance with TGA regulations, these are not advertised publicly and are only discussed privately during consultation

Areas Commonly Reviewed During Consultation
Hollowing
Hollowing beneath the eyes can make the face appear tired or aged.
Dr Allison assesses whether changes in support tissues or skin thickness, or shadowing contributes most to the concern, then outlines suitable non-surgical approaches to support smoother transitions between the eye and cheek.
Dark Circles and Shadowing
Dark circles may result from vascular visibility, pigmentation or surface hollowing.
Dr Allison identifies the underlying cause and may recommend options that address skin quality, hydration and light reflection to reduce the appearance of shadows.
Tissue Support and Balance
Ageing and genetics can reduce cheek projection, causing the eye area to appear more prominent.
Improving support and balance in the lower eyelid region through non-surgical approaches.
Texture and Fine Lines
The thin skin around the eyes is prone to creasing and textural change.
Non-surgical treatments aimed at improving hydration and elasticity can assist in smoothing this delicate area. Results vary between individuals.
