Dark Circles & Under-Eye Hollows Treatment in Soho

It depends on whether pigment, thin skin, hollowing or a mixture is behind your dark circles, and that is impossible to judge from a mirror alone. At your face-to-face consultation in Soho our nurses use 3D Visage facial analysis to assess the under-eye area properly, then recommend only what will actually help.

In the right hands and the right anatomy, yes, though it is one of the most technique-sensitive areas in aesthetics. Our nurses assess the tear trough carefully at consultation and will decline to treat if filler is not the right answer, for example where puffiness rather than hollowness dominates. Honest assessment protects your result.

Polynucleotides are purified DNA fragments that prompt the thin under-eye skin to repair itself: skin gradually becomes thicker, firmer and less crepey, so vessels and shadow show through less. A course of 2 to 3 sessions spaced weeks apart is typical, with improvement building over the following weeks. Individual results vary.

Honestly, no. Genetic pigment and naturally thin skin can be improved and managed, not erased, and results from any treatment soften over time. What we can do is reduce the shadow meaningfully, strengthen the skin and keep it that way with sensible maintenance. We would rather promise less and deliver it.

Dark circles that develop slowly over months or years are almost always cosmetic rather than medical. See your GP first if you notice sudden swelling, pain, redness or a change affecting one eye only, or if dark circles arrive with other new symptoms. Once anything medical is ruled out, we are happy to help.
