Abstract: Tear trough deformity is a complex feature of facial aging, which includes lacrimal groove deformity and skin aging. To correct this deformity, it is necessary to increase the volume of the underlying depression and improve the skin quality. Nanofat and its derivatives are fine and equal fillings with adipose derived stem cells, and their advantages in precise injection and skin improvement perfectly fit the needs of tear trough deformity. The applications of nanofat and its derivatives are also promoting and varying constantly, from single injection to the combination with structural fat grafting or surgery. In this review, the research progress of nanofat and its derivatives in the treatment of tear trough deformity was described.
