How can I make my eyes look younger without surgery?
As we age, the skin around our eyes is one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. It is thinner and more delicate than the skin on other parts of our face, making it more susceptible to damage from the sun, pollution, and other environmental factors. It also lacks oil glands, which means that it is more prone to dryness and dehydration. All of these factors contribute to the most common ageing concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, dark circles, and hollowness. Fortunately, there are several non-invasive treatment options that can help to combat these common concerns and make your eyes look brighter, and more youthful.
Dermal Fillers
Delicately placed injections of a lightweight filler gel made from hyaluronic acid can work for hollow eyes, to immediately smooth out the dip between the edge of the cheekbone and the hollow under the eye. These fillers are gel-like substances that add volume and plumpness to areas that have lost fat, elasticity, and firmness. This can make the whole under-eye area look brighter and gives a result that should last for a year or more.
Sofwave
Sofwave is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses parallel beam ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production in the skin. When used around the eyes, Sofwave can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as tighten loose, crepey or sagging skin. The treatment is painless and requires no downtime, making it a convenient option for those who want to rejuvenate their eyes without undergoing surgery or more invasive procedures.
Microneedling
We know collagen is the holy grail of youth, and in some cases it’s also what’s needed to banish dark circles. If your dark circles are down to thinning of the skin in the under-eye area, consider microneedling. Clinical needling under the eyes with a microneedling pen will increase the thickness of the dermis by activating the skin’s wound-healing response and stimulating collagen and elastin production. The renewed skin will be plumper and the dark circles less visible
LightEyes Ultra
This innovative mesotherapy treatment can improve skin firmness, microcirculation, puffiness, and dark circles. With a unique blend of natural ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin c, cucumber, chamomile, holly, rosemary, and antioxidants, LightEyes Ultra delivers a deep tissue formulation to leave your eyes looking brighter and surrounding skin smoother.
Using a fine needle, the treatment is injected into multiple points on the upper and lower eyelid area, providing improvement in dark circles, fine lines, wrinkles, capillary stasis, and dehydration. Plus, with no risks and minimal downtime, LightEyes Ultra is a simple treatment that can enhance and maintain a fresh look after just one session.
Nucleofill
Nucleofill is a revelation for those who are wary of having traditional filler on the delicate tear trough area which can exaggerate undereye puffiness in the wrong candidate. For visible yet natural results this innovative, scientifically proven technique uses polynucleotides (exactly the same as those found in your DNA) to stimulate all layers of the skin, increasing both the production of collagen and elastin – imagine less laxity, fewer fine lines and long-term hydration. You’ll notice visibly firmer under eyes and brighter skin texture. The results take several weeks as collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are stimulated within the skin.
Dermal fillers, Sofwave, LightEyes Ultra, microneedling and Nucleofill are all effective options for rejuvenating the eyes and making them look younger. If you’re interested in trying one of these treatments, be sure to consult with a qualified and experienced provider who can help you choose the best option for your unique needs and goals.
