Recommended Treatments for Dark Circles at Korean Skin Clinics

Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, aging, fatigue, and hyperpigmentation. At Cellin Clinic Hongdae, we offer a range of advanced treatments that address the root causes of dark circles, such as Laser Toning, HA Fillers, Microneedling with PRP/Stem Cells, and Skin Boosters. Here's an in-depth look at the treatments that can help you achieve a refreshed, youthful appearance.

1. Laser Toning (Pico Laser)

Pico Laser is an advanced, non-invasive treatment designed to reduce pigmentation in the under-eye area. The procedure is quick, lasting only 20-30 minutes per session. Pico Laser uses ultra-fast pulses of light to break down pigment and stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and tone without leaving scars.

Treatment Details:

  • Session Time: 20-30 minutes

  • Recommended Frequency: 1 session per week for 5-10 weeks for the most effective results

  • Post-Treatment Side Effects: Slight redness, hotness, itchiness, and dryness are typical—it's important to moisturize afterward.

  • Benefits: Non-invasive, no scarring, minimal downtime

  • Precautions: Avoid sun exposure after treatment

2. HA Fillers (Juvederm, Atiere, etc.)

HA fillers are ideal for patients experiencing volume loss or thinning skin under the eyes, which can create the appearance of dark circles. The treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid to restore volume, enhance elasticity, and reduce the appearance of dark circles. The results are immediate, and the procedure requires no incision.

Treatment Details:

  • Procedure Time: 1 hour

  • Post-Treatment: A slight stiff feeling may occur during the first 3-5 days. Makeup can be applied a few hours after the procedure. Full adherence takes about 2 weeks.

  • Downtime: Swelling and bruising may be present. Showering and washing the face is allowed on the same day, but avoid showering immediately afterward.

  • Precautions: Avoid applying pressure to the injected areas for a month.

3. Microneedling with PRP/Stem Cells (NovaStem)

Microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or Stem Cells is an excellent solution for dark circles caused by skin thinning, fine lines, and even acne scars. The procedure involves drawing the patient’s blood, extracting the stem cells or PRP, and injecting it into the targeted area after applying a topical numbing cream. This promotes collagen production and skin rejuvenation.

Treatment Details:

  • Procedure Time: 1 hour

  • Post-Treatment: Mild swelling or bruising may occur for 3-4 days. Downtime is short.

  • Precautions: Do not apply pressure to the injected areas for a month after treatment.

  • Benefits: Can be used for a wide range of issues like fine lines, smile lines, acne scars, and dark circles.

4. Skin Boosters (Ultracol, Juvelook, Radiesse)

Skin boosters are similar to HA fillers but are designed to activate collagen production in addition to restoring volume and hydration. These are ideal for patients who want long-lasting skin rejuvenation. The treatment involves injecting a special solution that helps improve skin texture and elasticity, stimulating collagen growth.

Treatment Details:

  • Procedure Time: 1 hour

  • Recommended Frequency: 3 sessions every 2 months for the most effective results

  • Post-Treatment: Same downtime and precautions as HA fillers, including possible swelling or bruising. Avoid pressure on the treated areas for a month.

  • Benefits: Activates collagen production for long-term skin improvement
