The Ultimate Guide to Under Eye Rejuvenation

Do you struggle with under eye bags, dark circles, or fine lines?
You’re not alone—and you’re definitely not imagining it.

As a cosmetic dermatologist who sees hundreds of patients each week, I can tell you: under eye rejuvenation is by far one of the most requested treatments in my office. Why? Because the under eye area is often the first place we show signs of aging—even if we’re still young.

👉 Watch the full video on YouTube for a detailed breakdown of the most effective non-surgical under eye treatments we’re using today in clinic.


Why the Under Eye Area Is So Tricky

The skin under your eyes is the thinnest on your face. That makes it incredibly delicate and vulnerable to:

  • Early collagen and elastin loss

  • Visible blood vessels (causing dark circles)

  • Hollowing or puffiness

  • Fine lines and crepey skin

And it’s not always age-related. Some people are just genetically predisposed to volume loss, bags, or pigmentation in this area.


What Causes Under Eye Aging?

There are several contributors:

  • Collagen decline (starting in your 20s, worsening with menopause)

  • Volume loss from weight changes, bone remodeling, or natural anatomy

  • Thinning skin, vascular visibility, and pigmentation changes

  • Hormonal shifts, particularly drops in estrogen

That’s why no one treatment fits all. It takes a customized approach—and often a combination of methods—to see real results.


The Best Treatments for Under Eye Rejuvenation

In the full video, I break down the top treatments I use in my practice. Here’s a sneak peek:

Energy-Based Treatments

  • Thermage: Uses radiofrequency to stimulate deeper layers—no downtime, long-lasting

  • ThermoFrax: A combo approach that targets all skin depths for maximum tightening- includes adding Fraxel laser with Thermage treatments. 

Injectables

  • Neuromodulators (like Botox): Smooths fine lines, but placement must be precise

  • Hyaluronic Acid Filler: Tear trough correction using conservative, safe techniques

  • EZ Gel (from your own blood): A PRF-based biostimulator that brightens and smooths

🚫 What NOT to Use

Some treatments aren’t ideal for this sensitive area:

  • Microneedling: Can cause pigmentation or scarring

  • Sculptra or Renuva: Not suitable for thin under eye skin

  • PDO Threads: Risk of bumps and irregular texture


Other Options: Topicals & Lasers for Pigmentation

  • V-Beam Laser: Excellent for vascular dark circles

  • Eye Creams & SPF: Products with caffeine, peptides specifically engineered for under eye area or sunscreens with iron oxides help with puffiness and protection (I love the Colorescience 3-in-1 Total Eye).


So What’s the Best Way to Treat Your Under Eyes?

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer—and that’s exactly what this video covers. I walk you through:

  • How to identify what’s really causing your under eye issues

  • What treatments actually work (and what to skip)

  • How we combine therapies in the office for long-term, natural-looking results
