Under-eye circles can make us appear older and more fatigued than we actually feel. As we get older, the skin under the eyes becomes thinner and more fragile, and blood vessels become more visible, resulting in dark circles or a bluish tint. Additionally, the natural loss of collagen and elastin contributes to periorbital aging and the appearance of under-eye circles. This delicate area has historically been difficult to treat, but the advent of polynucleotide injections has been revolutionary for under-eye rejuvenation.
Polynucleotides are essentially long chains of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA and RNA. These molecules kickstart the regenerative and repair process of your own skin cells and help to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin.
When injected under the eye (and in other parts of the face and neck), they improve skin elasticity by stimulating collagen production. They also improve skin hydration as well as the appearance of dark undereye circles. For best results, 2-3 treatments are required over a 4-6 week period. For an example of our results, see the beautiful before & after photos of our patient below:
