Treatments for Dark Circle

Bright Eyes

The Bright Eyes treatment  is a specialised mesotherapy procedure designed to target dark circles, pigmentation, and crepey skin around the eyes. This anti-aging treatment involves nano-injections of a blend of vitamins and glutathione with hyaluronic acid, stimulating collagen and elastin production and also skin brightening. It revitalises and hydrates the skin while minimising hyperpigmentation under the eyes. A typical course includes three sessions​​ of this treatment - with minimal downtime, it is a good option for those with early signs of ageing around the eyes.

Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) for Face and Neck

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy utilises the patient's own blood to rejuvenate the skin. In this treatment, a small blood sample is taken, and the platelets are separated and concentrated in a centrifuge machine. The PRP is then injected into the under-eye area, promoting natural healing and rejuvenation. This can lead to reduced dark circles and a more youthful appearance. Often several sessions are needed for best results. This treatment is ideal for patients wanting to have a natural way of reducing dark circles, without injecting exogenous materials into their skin.

Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides are small fragments of DNA and RNA, often derived from fish, such as tuna or salmon. There are various brands of polynucletides, including Nucleofill, Plinest and Plenhyage. Polynucleotide treatments involve microinjections of a thin polynucleotide fluid that stimulate fibroblast cells to produce collagen and improve skin quality. They have also been shown to reduce hyperpigmentation around the eyes. This treatment provides deep skin hydration, smoothens fine lines and wrinkles, and boosts collagen and elastin levels. Usually a course of treatments is needed for best results.

Tear Trough Filler

In cases where there is a distinct volume loss or ‘tear trough’. As we age, this area can become more prominent, resulting in a tired or aged look. Tear trough filler can be used to specifically target  bony volume loss in the area between the lower eyelid and upper cheek. Often a little filler in the cheek can be used in addition to support the area from below also. The treatment involves injecting a hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers to plump up the hollows, smoothing out the skin, and restoring a more youthful and refreshed appearance. As with any filler treatment, minimal volumes should be used to prevent an ‘overdone’ look and to minimise swelling in this delicate area.

What are Dark Circles?

Dark circles under the eyes is a particularly common concern we see in patients visiting our clinics, with patients often remarking that their eyes make them look tired, even when they are not. Dark circles can result from many factors including general ageing, genetics, lifestyle choices, and skin conditions. External factors, in particular, sun exposure, smoking, and poor nutrition are all important considerations as these can accelerate the underlying ageing processes of the skin around the eyes. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is a particularly important factor in this.

Fortunately, there are a number of effective nonsurgical treatments available to treat dark circles - avoiding the need for surgery wherever possible. In our clinics,our practitionerstake a comprehensive approach to treating dark circles based on in-depth knowledge of the anatomical layers that can be affected by ageing around the eye. Get in touch to understand which option is best to treat your dark circles, from mesotherapy to PRP, polynucleotides, tear trough fillers, and ultimately surgical options including blepharoplasty and fat transfer.
