Under eye dark circle-puffiness FAQs
What happens in the initial consultation?
A Skin specialist assesses if you have hyperpigmentation and if your skin is suitable for our treatment. We go through the treatment details with you and if you wish to proceed we do a patch test, consent form, provide your prep cream and take payment. Our cosmetic Dermatologist book you in for the treatment 3-4 weeks after your consultation to give you enough time to use the prep cream.
What are the likely post-treatment results?
On average, it takes 1-3 treatments to start to see visible results. Results are dependent on 3 factors: 1. How well you adhere to the post-treatment creams plan, 2. How resistant the pigmentation is, and 3. the type/cause of under eye darkness. Results are not guaranteed and approx. 5% of clients may not see any results at all.
Which parts of the eye do you treat?
Most of the visible dark circle area (peri-orbital) can be treated: the under eye darkness and eye-lids. However, the edges of the eyelids and under-eye skin closest to the eyeballs are unlikely to be addressed. Pigmentation around the temples and upper cheekbones will not be addressed. That requires a separate treatment (Chemical Peel) for which information can be found at The Hyperpigmentation section of Clinic website www. skinssence. in
How many treatment sessions will I need?
Many clients are happy after just one treatment as it means they can wear less make-up and be more confident as a result. Others require 3 treatments to see a bigger difference. However, we cannot predict how many treatments each individual may need, as this depends on how well the skin responds to treatment and levels of compliance with post-treatment protocols.
What are the precautions after the treatment?
Firstly, don’t expose to sunlight without a thick layer of sunblock to protect the skin as much as possible.
Avoid other chemical peel/laser/other chemical treatments within 3 months.
Do not expose to excessive heat within 8 weeks i.e. in a steam room, sauna, or jacuzzi.
Are the results permanent and can the dark circle recur?
Once achieved, results are likely to be permanent but must be maintained through daily use of sunblock and moisturizer afterward. However, if you do not protect against UV light exposure or incur future skin trauma or inflammation (Eczema etc), then new Under Eye Darkness can develop.
