The Tear trough or under-eye area is one of the most delicate and vulnerable regions of our face and a common area of concern. As we age, fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles often become more pronounced, leaving us looking tired and older than we feel.
 
From an injectable treatment perspective treatments for this specific area have been limited to dermal filler for the tear trough and periorbital area. Whilst this can be an effective solution for hollowing and volume loss in the right patients it is not an option for everyone and many patients are treated inappropriately by inexperienced injectors leading to various complications.
 
Polynucleotide treatment has fast emerged as a promising solution for under-eye/tear trough rejuvenation. In this blog, we will explore the use of polynucleotide treatment for the under-eye area, its benefits, and how it can help achieve a more youthful and radiant appearance.

Understanding Polynucleotide Treatment

Polynucleotide treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that utilizes the regenerative properties of polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA fragments. These DNA molecules play a crucial role in cellular repair and regeneration. When applied to the under-eye area, polynucleotides stimulate a number of different cell types including fibroblasts which leads to increased collagen production and accelerate tissue regeneration, leading to improved skin texture and elasticity.

The Treatment Process

The process of polynucleotide treatment for the under-eye area is relatively straightforward and minimally invasive. A qualified medical professional will begin by thoroughly cleansing the skin and applying a topical anesthetic to ensure the patient’s comfort during the procedure. Once the area is numb, the polynucleotide solution is gently injected into the targeted under-eye region using a fine needle.
The treatment usually takes around 30 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. There is minimal downtime associated with polynucleotide treatment, and patients can resume their daily activities shortly after the procedure.
 

Benefits of Polynucleotide Treatment for Under Eye Area

  1. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: As polynucleotides stimulate collagen production, they help to fill in fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a smoother and more youthful under-eye appearance.
  2. Improves Skin Elasticity: With increased collagen synthesis, the skin’s elasticity is enhanced, leading to a firmer and lifted look around the eyes.
  3. Reduces Dark Circles: Polynucleotides aid in the repair of damaged blood vessels, which are often the underlying cause of dark circles. By addressing this issue, the under-eye area can look brighter and more rejuvenated.
  4. Natural Results: One of the key advantages of polynucleotide treatment is that it triggers the body’s natural healing process. This leads to gradual improvements, ensuring a more natural and subtle transformation.
  5. Long-lasting Effects: While multiple sessions may be required for optimal results, the effects of polynucleotide treatment can last for several months to a year, making it a cost-effective and long-lasting solution for under-eye rejuvenation.
