Injections des cernes
Under-eye circle injection
Do you suffer from dark circles or bags under your eyes that make you look tired? Then dark circle injections could be the solution for you! Pronounced dark circles are responsible for that tired look.
While you might think your under-eye bags are the result of lack of sleep, and that can certainly play a role, it's not always the only reason. Many people choose under-eye injections to get rid of that tired look.
What causes dark circles under the eyes?
Sunken eye sockets, also known as tear troughs, can be caused by aging. As we age, the production of collagen and elastin slows down, making the skin thinner. This can lead to small pockets of fat under the eyes that create shadows. Sometimes, dark circles are genetic; they can appear at a young age and worsen with age. While some people like dark circles because of the slimming effect they can give the face, most people believe they are caused by a lack of sleep. But they can also be genetic.
Under-eye injection treatment at IP Clinic
Injection treatments can vary depending on your individual case and the physician performing the procedure. The treatment may involve micro-injections along the marked area under the eyes. Alternatively, a cannula can be used to perform the treatment at a single injection point. The goal is to restore lost volume while maintaining a natural and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Most people desire subtle enhancement rather than a complete transformation. Because every face is unique, our consultation is tailored to your specific situation. Our physicians use hyaluronic acid as a filler, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain skin elasticity and hydration.
The process of under-eye circle injections
Before the treatment, a consultation will be held to discuss your needs and determine the best treatment for your dark circles. Our doctors will create a treatment plan, taking before-and-after photos to visualize the results. An anesthetic cream is then applied to the area, and the filler is administered with a fine needle. This simple treatment typically takes 10 to 20 minutes.
Results and follow-up
You will see the effect immediately after the treatment, although some swelling may occur, which is normal. The final result will be visible after approximately two weeks. We recommend refraining from smoking, drinking alcohol, and engaging in strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours after treatment. Additionally, sun exposure and the use of saunas, spas, or steam rooms are not recommended for the first two weeks, nor are facial treatments such as laser treatments or peels.
