Under-eye concern

Dark circles

Why the under-eye looks shadowed and tired, and what can help.

Dark circles

Under-eye skin is among the thinnest on the body, so tiredness and shadow show through more easily.

Dark circles

Brighter under-eye skin comes from better skin quality, not filler.

Why it happens.

Thin skin
With less density, the colour of the tissue beneath shows through.
Ageing
Collagen and elastin decline, and the skin loses thickness.
Lifestyle
Poor sleep, sun and dehydration can all make shadows look deeper.

What can help.

Lumi Eyes improves the quality of the under-eye skin itself, brightening the look of the area. It does not add volume.

What treatment involves.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    A qualified practitioner reviews your medical history and skin, and agrees a plan with you.

  2. 02

    A short course

    Usually three sessions, four weeks apart, repeated twice a year.

  3. 03

    Aftercare

    Some swelling is normal. Wear SPF daily, keep skin hydrated and use a Lumi mask at home when advised.

Day to day.

Small habits that support treatment and help results last.

SPF every day

Sun breaks down collagen. Protect the under-eye too.

Hydrate

Drink water and use a hydrating moisturiser.

Sleep well

Rest helps the skin recover and look less tired.

Be gentle

Cleanse softly and avoid rubbing the eye area.

Questions about dark circles.

Can dark circles be treated?

When thin skin is part of the cause, improving skin quality can brighten the area. A practitioner will assess the cause first.

Is it the same as under-eye filler?

No. Lumi Eyes works on skin quality and does not add volume.

How long until I see a difference?

Results build across the course of sessions. Individual results vary.

Will it help if my dark circles are genetic?

It depends on the cause. Your practitioner will tell you what to expect.

Ask your practitioner about Lumi.

Lumi treatments are given only by qualified practitioners. Ask your clinic whether they use the Lumi series.
