Dark circles under the eyes are caused from volume loss which causes a shadow effect and not from lack ‘beauty sleep’ which is the common opinion.Treatment of dark circles therefore involves replacing the volume loss with a dermal filler into the area of hollowing.
Injecting dermal filler into dark circles under the eyes smooths out the sunken tired look and in many cases effectively improves the cosmetic appearance of puffiness or ‘under eye bags’.
What does treatment of dark circles involve?
The under eye area is not particularly sensitive to injections and only requires superficial numbing to make it more comfortable.
The under eye area is very vascular so bruising often occurs (though not always). It is best to time treatment so that you do not have any important engagements for about a week after treatment.
The cost of treating dark circles varies depending on the amount of filler required, this can vary up to $790
The treatment is often broken into two sittings, but the initial cost covers the whole course
