What Are Dark Circles?

Dark circles are a common issue affecting people of all ages and genders, appearing for various reasons. They appear as dark or hollowed-out areas under the eyes, making the skin look tired and aged. Dark circles can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, lack of sleep, allergies, stress, and aging. While they may be temporary for some, dark circles can become lasting as the effects of aging continue. In these cases, we offer patients a non-surgical solution to eliminate dark circles and restore their appearance.

How Does Dark Circle Treatment Work?

At Aesthetic Beauty, we offer two main options of non-surgical treatments to reduce the appearance of dark circles. Our options include:

  • Dermal Fillers: Using injections of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin, we can restore lost volume or boost collagen levels at treated areas. Fillers can be used to fill in hollow areas under the eyes and improve their appearance for a livelier look.
  • Microneedling: This unique treatment creates micropunctures at the target areas. These small punctures activate the body’s natural regenerative response, building collagen in the treated tissues to improve skin texture and elasticity.

Benefits of Dark Circle Removal

While dark circle removal can be highly beneficial for patients, the best outcomes are achieved by working with a board-certified physician, such as Shakeridge. This promotes a safer experience along with improved outcomes with benefits such as:

  • Enhanced Appearance: Dark circle removal can significantly improve the appearance of your under-eye area, making you look more awake, youthful, and refreshed.
  • Elevated Confidence: Many people feel self-conscious about their dark circles, so removing them can boost your confidence and make it a pleasure to look in the mirror.
  • Non-Surgical Solution: Our treatments for dark circle removal are non-invasive and require little to no downtime, making them convenient for patients with busy schedules.
  • Flexible Results: Patients can tailor every aspect of their session, from the chosen aesthetic to the type of filler, ensuring outcomes that last the desired duration.

Is Non-Surgical Dark Circle Removal Right for Me?

Non-surgical dark circle removal is an excellent option for those who want to improve their under-eye area’s appearance without surgery or invasive techniques. It is safe, effective, and requires minimal downtime, making it a popular treatment modality among a wide audience.

However, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have severe dark circles or underlying medical conditions that contribute to them, your doctor may recommend other treatment options, such as surgery. The surest way to know if our dark circle treatment is right for you is to book a consultation with Trista Shakeridge. Our board-certified injector specializes in non-surgical treatments and can explore your situation with you to see what solutions will bring about your goals.

Is There a Recovery Period?

One of the core advantages of non-surgical dark circle removal is that it requires little to no downtime. You may experience some minor swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects typically subside within no more than 1-2 days. Still, these side effects rarely interfere with daily life, and patients can leave a session and go right back to work in many cases.

For patients who chose microneedling, there can be some redness and pinpoint bleeding is normal at first, with some minor swelling or redness lasting a couple of days. Still, most patients can enjoy their normal routines while ensuring they care for the treated areas according to their post-procedure instructions.

Dark Circle Treatment Results and Maintenance

The results of dark circle removal treatments are almost immediate for many patients, as the injections instantly restore lost volume. The duration of the results can vary, depending on the type of treatment you receive, your skin’s natural aging process, and how well you take care of your skin. For fillers, most patients can expect results anywhere from 6-18 months, depending on the type chosen. For microneedling, patients may see their best results after a series of sessions spread over several weeks to months. Each session will provide improvements as the body continues to rebuild collage at the treated areas, with optimal results appearing 4-6 weeks after their last session. Results can then last for months to more than a year.

For both fillers and microneedling, we provide touch-up treatments for patients to maintain their results. Our goal is to ensure you continually look at your best.
