Ultrasound-Guided Tear Trough Filler Dissolve in Orange County

WHAT IS ULTRASOUND-GUIDED TEAR TROUGH FILLER DISSOLVE?

The tear trough and under eye area are some of the most delicate and most unforgiving places to put filler. When filler is placed too superficially, in the wrong plane, or in the wrong patient, it can cause swelling, puffiness, shadows, or a bluish tint called the Tyndall effect.

Ultrasound-guided tear trough filler dissolve at PLÛMP uses Butterfly iQ3, an AI-enhanced, high frequency ultrasound device, to see exactly where under eye filler is sitting before dissolving it. This allows Dr. Amir to target only the unwanted filler while protecting your natural under eye structure.

Patients come from across Orange County, Irvine, Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, Tustin, Anaheim, and even Los Angeles for this level of precision and safety around the eyes.

WHY THE TEAR TROUGH NEEDS ULTRASOUND

Blind dissolving in the tear trough is risky. The area is tight, highly vascular, and closely related to the orbital structures. Guessing can lead to:

• Over dissolving and hollowing

• Uneven pockets of fluid or swelling

• Increased risk of complications

Using Butterfly iQ3, Dr. Amir can:

• Visualize filler pockets in real time

• See how deep the product is and which plane it occupies

• Identify any migration from previous injections

• Map vessels and high risk areas to avoid

This creates a safer, more controlled, and more predictable under eye correction.

WHAT ULTRASOUND-GUIDED TEAR TROUGH FILLER DISSOLVE TREATS

• Persistent under eye swelling or puffiness after filler

• Tyndall effect (bluish or grayish hue under the skin)

• Irregular contour or shadowing that makes you look tired

• Filler migration into the mid cheek or along the orbital rim

• Heavy or “baggy” under eyes that got worse after filler

• Asymmetry between sides after under eye injections

• Old filler placed years ago that is still causing problems

Butterfly iQ3 ultrasound helps separate true filler related issues from natural fat pads, skin laxity, or fluid retention, so you get an honest, accurate plan.

HOW BUTTERFLY iQ3 IMPROVES UNDER EYE SAFETY

The Butterfly iQ3 is one of the most advanced handheld ultrasound systems available. In the tear trough, its strengths are:

• AI enhanced image quality for fine under eye anatomy

• High frequency detail that can distinguish superficial from deep filler

• Real time guidance as hyaluronidase is injected

• More precise dosing of dissolver directly into the filler pocket

• Better preservation of supportive structures so the area does not collapse or hollow out

For you, that means more natural results, fewer treatments, and less risk.

THE PLÛMP APPROACH TO UNDER EYE CORRECTION

Under the care of Dr. Amir Mortazavi, under eye corrections are never rushed or cookie cutter. Every ultrasound guided tear trough dissolve includes:

• A detailed consultation and under eye assessment

• AI enhanced ultrasound mapping with Butterfly iQ3

• A conservative, targeted dissolving plan

• Consideration of future options like refill, skin tightening, or laser

The goal is not just to erase filler. The goal is to restore balance, soften the tired look, and protect the long term health of the under eye area.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR TEAR TROUGH FILLER DISSOLVE

Step 1: Evaluation and photos
We review your history, prior injections, and current concerns, then document your under eye area.

Step 2: Butterfly iQ3 ultrasound mapping
Dr. Amir uses the Butterfly iQ3 to scan the tear trough and midface, identifying where filler is present and how deep it sits.

Step 3: Targeted hyaluronidase injections
Using the ultrasound map as a guide, small amounts of dissolver are placed precisely into the unwanted filler pockets.

Step 4: Re-scan and adjustment
Ultrasound can be used again to confirm how the filler is breaking down and whether additional small injections are needed.

Step 5: Follow up and future plan
Once swelling resolves, you will review options for refill, skin support, or alternative treatments if needed.

FAQ – TEAR TROUGH FILLER DISSOLVE

1. How do I know if my under eye problem is from filler?
Ultrasound with Butterfly iQ3 can show whether you have residual filler, how much is left, and whether it is contributing to swelling, shadowing, or discoloration.

2. Can you fix bad under eye filler done somewhere else?
Yes. Most tear trough dissolve patients at PLÛMP were injected elsewhere and come in for correction.

3. Will dissolving under eye filler make me look hollow?
The goal is not to over dissolve. Ultrasound helps us remove only what is causing problems so we can protect your natural support.

4. How soon will I see results after dissolving?
Many patients see improvement within 24 to 72 hours. Some complex cases may need more than one session.

5. Is ultrasound guided dissolving safer for the tear trough?
Yes. It lets us avoid critical vessels and structures, and helps us use the smallest effective dose of hyaluronidase.

6. Can you see Tyndall effect on ultrasound?
We can see superficial filler that often corresponds to the bluish tint. Once that filler is dissolved, the color usually improves.

7. Can I do new under eye filler after dissolving?
Sometimes, but not always. Many patients do better with a different approach such as cheek support, laser, or skin tightening. If refill is appropriate, it is usually done after 2 weeks or more.

8. Is the treatment painful?
Most patients find it very tolerable. Numbing options can be used, and injections are focused and limited.

9. What if my issue is not filler but fat pads or skin laxity?
That is exactly why ultrasound and a full evaluation matter. If filler is not the problem, we will not recommend dissolving and will discuss alternate treatments.

10. Do I need a consultation first?
Yes. Under eye work is detailed and deserves a careful, doctor led evaluation, especially if you are coming from Irvine, Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, Tustin, Anaheim, or LA for a second opinion.
