“Have you been tired lately?” As a modern day individual, we have all been (and still are) experiencing fatigue combined with stress almost everyday. But if the fatigue peeps through even on a good day, you start to wonder if your face has a ‘resting tired face’. Fear not, it is not your face, it is the appearance of your dark circles that could be the problem!

Dark Circles, Just How Do They Work?

Dark circles are a common concern among people of all ages. Frankly speaking, lack of sleep is the main cause for dark circles. However, depending on the color of the dark circle pigmentation, it can also be influenced by genetics or the visibility of blood vessels peeking through the skin. Therefore, it is better to visit the clinic for a professional check in order to identify the main cause of your dark circles.

Can home care remedies help lighten under eyes?

As much as dermatology has improved over the years, so has cosmetics. Nowadays you can find products marketed towards fixing dark circles, starting from undereye creams to overnight packs, amples, patches, and the list goes on. As the undereye area has thin skin compared to the rest of the face, using these products help to thicken the skin and reduce the appearance of the blood vessels peeking through. However, these results are not permanent and can lighten the dark circles only up to a certain degree. Instead, opting for clinical options is usually the best way for guaranteed results.

Rejuran I

Procedures such as botox are always warned to stay away from the undereye areas as the skin is extremely thin and can cause side effects such as limitations of eyeball movements. Therefore, it is best to go in with procedures that are specifically made for treating the undereye area, with the most notable being Rejuran I.

From the Rejuran series, Rejuran I (Eye) is designed specifically to target the delicate eye area. Likewise with the other Rejuran series, Rejuran I includes the skin regeneration properties of polynucleotides (PN). PN helps to improve the skin condition and elasticity, overall reducing the signs of pigmentation and dramatically increasing the hydration in the easily creasing area.

Unlike botox, Rejuran I does not interfere with the eyeball movements. As the solution is made up of only regenerative properties, Rejuran I acts to stimulate the natural skin rejuvenation process. It does not ‘freeze’ any muscle movements and the results are permanent, with the effects becoming stronger upon repeated sessions.

But what if my concern is less about the pigmentation, but more about the lost volume?

Undereye Filler

For those looking to improve the sunken in, hollow appearance of the eyes, undereye fillersㅡalso known as tear-trough fillersㅡare also an option. Indented shadows across the eye is often the cause for the tired appearance, and it is hard to erase even with concealer or a good amount of sleep. By filling in the lost volume, it erases the annoying shadow and creates a more youthful and plump look.

At LAMINE Skin Clinic, we recommend proceeding the undereye filler with a volume filler to even out the shape and reduce possibilities of bumpiness. As the undereye filler targets specifically the undereye areas, the plumpness may look unnatural or uneven with the rest of the face. Therefore, we strongly recommend going in with a small amount of volume filler to even out the shape for a more natural appearance.

The best way to find out the type of dark circles you have and the treatment to receive is through a thorough consultation with a professional doctor. At LAMINE Skin Clinic, Dr. Kim believes in the philosophy of natural beauty, aiming to help patients improve their skin concerns in the most safest and natural way.
