Tear Troughs vs Sunekos Treatment

A popular debate we often see within the industry is the infamous “Tear Troughs vs Sunekos.”

Since we offer training in both these procedures, a commonly raised question by our delegates is, “when should I use Sunekos and when should I use tear trough filler?” And the answer is easier than you may think.

What is the difference between Tear Trough Filler and Sunekos Treatment?

Sunekos is a skin booster which will improve the skin complexion, fine lines and wrinkles and brighten certain areas of the face. So when a patient has dark circles and/or very fine lines around the eyes, then a skin booster will be the treatment of choice we’d recommend.

On the other side, tear trough filler will add volume to the area. So, if the patient has volume loss and hollowness in the tear trough region, then this treatment would be best suited for their desired result.

How do I know whether Tear Trough or Sunekos Treatment is best for my patient?

In some cases, it can be difficult to determine which treatment would achieve the best results for your patient. At BTC, our protocol would be:

If there is hollowness and bone loss – treat with tear trough filler to restore this lost volume and review in 2 weeks.

If there are dark circles and fine lines/wrinkles – I would proceed to treat with skin boosters such as Sunekos.
