Under-eye mesotherapy uses a series of tiny, superficial injections to deliver specially selected skin-rejuvenating ingredients directly into the delicate under-eye skin.

Depending on your individual needs, Dr Jackie may select formulations containing polynucleotides, hyaluronic acid and other skin-supporting ingredients, chosen to support hydration, skin quality and regeneration.

Treatment is aimed primarily at improving the quality, hydration and texture of the skin, rather than adding volume or changing the structure of the under-eye area.

It may be considered for:

• Fine, crepey under-eye skin 
• Dehydration 
• Early fine lines 
• Dull or tired-looking skin 
• General deterioration in under-eye skin quality 

The product and treatment technique are selected by Dr Jackie following assessment, so you don't need to choose an injectable product beforehand.

Dark circles and a tired appearance around the eyes can have several different causes, including:

• Thin skin and visible underlying vessels 
• Pigmentation 
• Shadowing from tear-trough anatomy 
• Volume loss 
• Puffiness or eye bags 
• Skin laxity 
• A combination of several factors 

Mesotherapy cannot correct all of these. Understanding why your eyes look tired is therefore more important than simply choosing an eye treatment. Following assessment, Dr Jackie can explain what is realistically treatable and whether mesotherapy — or another approach — is more appropriate.
 

Consultation
Dr Jackie will assess your under-eye skin, facial anatomy, medical history and what specifically concerns you about the area.

Treatment
Small amounts of the selected product are placed superficially into the under-eye skin using a fine needle and mesotherapy technique. Treatment is carefully tailored because the skin around the eyes is thin and delicate.

Downtime
Small raised areas at injection points, redness and mild swelling are expected immediately after treatment. Bruising can occur and can sometimes be noticeable around the eye. These effects generally settle over the following days, although individual recovery varies.

Results
Changes are usually subtle and gradual rather than dramatic. The aim is improvement in skin quality rather than creating volume or significantly altering the anatomy beneath the eye. Depending on your starting skin and the treatment selected, a course of treatments may be recommended.

Under-Eye Rejuvenation — £125 per session
Course of 3 — £350

The treatment product and approach will be selected by Dr Jackie following assessment of your individual under-eye concerns.

They are quite different treatments.

Under-eye mesotherapy primarily targets the quality and condition of the skin.

Tear-trough filler is a structural treatment intended to address selected anatomical hollows using dermal filler.

Not everyone with a visible tear trough is suitable for filler, and adding filler can be particularly unhelpful where puffiness, fluid retention or certain anatomical features are present. Equally, mesotherapy won't correct a significant structural hollow.

Dr Jackie will assess what is actually contributing to your under-eye appearance before discussing which — if either — approach is appropriate.

Sometimes an injectable treatment isn't the best starting point. Depending on what is causing the concern, your plan may include:

• Medical-grade eye skincare 
• LED phototherapy 
• Polynucleotide treatment 
• Treatment of surrounding facial areas where appropriate 
• Or no procedural treatment at all 

Different treatments address different components of the ageing eye area, so the aim is to choose the simplest approach likely to make a worthwhile difference.

 • Doctor-led assessment

 • Treatment selected for your anatomy

 • Subtle results

 • No unnecessary volume

The under-eye area is not somewhere to simply select a product from a menu.

At ReNu, Dr Jackie will first consider skin quality, pigmentation, puffiness, volume, facial structure and the position of shadows before discussing what can realistically be improved. The aim is to help your eyes appear fresher while keeping them looking naturally yours.
