Personalised treatment for tired-looking eyes, hollows, fine lines and changes in skin quality
Under-Eye Rejuvenation in Manchester & Liverpool
Personalised treatment for tired-looking eyes, hollows, fine lines and changes in skin quality
The under-eye area is delicate and complex. Dark circles, hollows, puffiness and crepey skin can have different causes, so the treatment that suits one person may be inappropriate for another.
At Jaime Correia Aesthetics, under-eye rejuvenation begins with a detailed assessment of your skin, facial anatomy, medical history and previous treatments. Jaime will identify the factors contributing to your concern before explaining which options—if any—may be appropriate.
Depending on your assessment, your personalised plan may include polynucleotides, carefully selected hyaluronic-acid filler, skin-quality treatment or support to an adjacent area of the face.
Treatments are performed by Jaime Correia, an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Independent Prescriber with more than 20 years of NHS clinical experience and over 15 years in facial aesthetics.
What Can Cause Tired-Looking Eyes?
Tear-Trough Hollowing
A natural groove between the lower eyelid and cheek may become more visible because of anatomy, ageing or changes in facial volume. The resulting shadow can make the eyes appear tired.
Thin or Crepey Skin
The skin around the eyes is naturally thin. Reduced elasticity, dehydration and age-related changes can make fine lines and texture more noticeable.
Dark Circles
Dark circles may result from pigmentation, visible blood vessels, thin skin, hollowing or shadowing. Injectable treatment cannot correct every cause.
Puffiness and Eye Bags
Prominent fat pads, fluid retention, allergies and other factors can create puffiness. Adding filler may make some forms of swelling worse.
Loss of Mid-Face Support
Changes in cheek volume or facial support can increase the appearance of the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek.
A careful diagnosis of the concern is more important than choosing a treatment from photographs or social-media trends.
Under-Eye Treatment Options
Polynucleotide Treatments
Polynucleotides may be considered for patients concerned about fine, crepey or dehydrated-looking skin around the eyes. Their purpose is to support skin quality rather than replace significant volume.
A course of treatment may be recommended, with changes developing progressively. Polynucleotides cannot remove prominent eye bags or correct every cause of dark circles.
Tear-Trough Filler
Carefully selected hyaluronic-acid filler may be considered for suitable patients with structural under-eye hollowing. Treatment is conservative and designed to soften the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek rather than eliminate every natural contour.
Tear-trough filler is not appropriate for everyone. Patients with significant puffiness, fluid retention, prominent fat pads, certain skin characteristics or previous filler complications may require a different approach.
Mid-Face Support
In some patients, changes in cheek or mid-face support contribute to under-eye shadowing. Addressing an adjacent area may sometimes create a more balanced result than placing filler directly beneath the eyes.
Personalised Skin-Quality Treatment
Where the principal concern is skin texture or fine surface lines, Jaime may discuss an appropriate skin-quality plan. This could include selected injectable or non-injectable treatments, depending on your anatomy and skin condition.
Referral or No Treatment
Some concerns are unlikely to improve sufficiently with nonsurgical aesthetic treatment. Where appropriate, Jaime may recommend medical assessment, specialist referral or no treatment rather than offering an unsuitable procedure.
Is Under-Eye Rejuvenation Suitable for Me?
Potentially suitable concerns include:
-
Under-eye hollowing
-
Fine or crepey skin
-
Reduced skin hydration
-
Selected forms of under-eye shadowing
-
Changes in the eyelid-to-cheek transition
-
Early skin-quality changes
Treatment may be unsuitable or require additional caution where there is:
-
Significant puffiness or fluid retention
-
Prominent fat pads or festoons
-
Active infection or inflammation
-
Certain medical conditions
-
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
-
Previous under-eye filler of uncertain type or placement
-
Unrealistic expectations
-
A concern more appropriately assessed by another healthcare professional
What Results Can I Expect?
Results depend on the cause of the under-eye concern and the treatment selected. Filler may create a more immediate change once swelling settles, while improvements following polynucleotide or skin-quality treatment are generally gradual.
The aim is improvement rather than complete removal of every hollow, line, shadow or natural anatomical feature. Individual response, treatment duration and maintenance requirements vary.
Recovery, Side Effects and Risks
Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, bruising and small raised areas can occur after under-eye injectable treatment. Swelling may initially make the area appear uneven and can occasionally persist longer than expected.
​
Potential complications vary according to the treatment selected. These can include infection, inflammatory reactions, persistent swelling, nodules, asymmetry, visible product, a blue-grey appearance following superficially placed filler and an unsatisfactory aesthetic result.
​
Dermal filler also carries a rare but potentially serious risk of vascular occlusion. This can cause damage to the skin and, in exceptional cases, visual disturbance, permanent sight loss or stroke. These complications require urgent recognition and management.​

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes dark circles beneath the eyes?
Dark circles under the eyes are caused by a mix of visible blood vessels, thin skin, extra pigment, or structural shadows. As you get older, your skin loses fat and collagen, making it thinner. This lets the dark blood vessels underneath show through more clearly
​
What causes tear-trough hollows?
Tear trough hollows are caused by a mix of natural aging, genetics, and structural changes under the eye. Fat pads under the eyes and in the mid-cheek shrink and shift downward over time, leaving a sunken groove. The skin under the eye is very thin, and losing collagen makes the underlying bone and dark shadows more visible.
​
Can under-eye treatment remove eye bags?
Yes, you can reduce or eliminate eye bags using home remedies, skin care, or medical procedures depending on what is causing them. Injections can smooth out deep tear troughs around the bags, though they are not suitable if you have heavy fat bulging.
​
Are polynucleotides or filler better for the under-eye area?
Tear trough fillers replace lost volume under the eyes for instant structural support, while polynucleotides repair skin quality, thickness, and elasticity from within without adding volume.
​
Can polynucleotides improve dark circles?
Yes, polynucleotides can improve dark circles by repairing the skin at a cellular level, boosting collagen and elastin, and improving microcirculation.
​
Who is suitable for tear-trough filler?
A good candidate for tear trough filler is someone experiencing noticeable under-eye hollowing or volume loss that creates shadow-based dark circles, and who has firm, healthy skin without significant eye bags
​
Who should not have tear-trough filler?
Tear trough filler is not suitable for people with under-eye bags, severe skin laxity, or active skin infections in the treatment area.
Adding filler beneath bulging fat pads can make puffiness look worse instead of better.
