What causes the appearance of dark circles under the eyes?
One of the biggest reasons we develop dark eye circles is not having enough sleep. Little to no sleep causes the oxygen in your under eye area to decrease. As a result, the blood vessels under your eyes become darker and more visible.
Age is another big factor as to why we see dark circles. As we age, the skin around our eyes becomes more fragile and thin. This is because we lose levels of collagen and elastin in our skin. These proteins are what help give our skin its strength and structure.
The ageing process causes thin skin to sag and for the under eyes or tear troughs to become more hollow. As a result, the blood vessels beneath the skin become more visible. Age also causes the fat that supports the eyes to move to the lower eyelids. The result is – puffy eyelids.
Other causes of dark circles include:
- Excessive sun exposure
- Dehydration
- Allergic reactions and congestion
- Genetics
- Any unhealthy lifestyle and poor nutrition
- Underlying medical conditions such as anaemia or thyroid disorders
Dark circle treatment in London
At Derma Aesthetics London, we provide tear trough filler treatment using dermal fillers to help improve dark circles and give you a fresh under eye area.
More about dermal fillers or tear trough fillers
Dermal fillers are a gel-like substance including hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body. Tear trough fillers are dermal fillers that are designed specifically for the under eye region.
These hyaluronic acid injections help to plump and restore lost volume under the eyes. They also give you a boost of hydration which brightens the area to make you look more refreshed.
Over time, dermal fillers can also help to stimulate the production of new collagen. Not only can this have skin tightening benefits, but it can also improve skin quality. This means your results can continue getting better months after your treatment.
What happens during tear trough filler treatment in London
You will have tear trough treatment with Dr Raja, who is a qualified doctor with expertise in aesthetic medicine. He will walk you through the procedure, including where the filler injection sites will be and how it will feel.
The treatment should take no longer than 30 minutes, which means you can fit into your schedule easily. Most patients describe feeling a mild discomfort during fillers. To help make your experience more comfortable, we apply a topical numbing cream to the under eye area beforehand.
We use a cannula, which is a very fine needle to inject tear trough fillers. Using this method helps us to reduce the risk of any swelling and bruising in the area.
To help the dermal filler settle, we may massage the area. We ask you to wait in the treatment room for a few minutes after your treatment to ensure you feel happy and comfortable before leaving. It is also a good chance for you to get your first look at your results.
How long does it take to see results from tear trough filler?
You will start to see a visible improvement in your dark circles straight away. However, it can take up to two weeks for the filler to fully settle and for your final results to show.
Most patients enjoy a fresh and youthful under eye area for 12-18 months. How long the results will last is different for everyone. This is because it will depend on how your body reacts to the dermal filler and how long it takes to break them down.
We usually recommend our patients to come back into the clinic at the 12-month mark to have a top-up treatment. This ensures that you continue to see great results.
