The Truth About Treating Dark Circles – Professional Solutions vs. Topical Products
Do dark circles, hollows, or under-eye bags bother you? At Prime Med Spa, we help clients choose between medical-grade fillers and cosmetic eye creams to achieve real, lasting results. Discover what actually works for brighter, more youthful-looking eyes.
Why Dark Circles Form
• Thin skin (veins show through)
• Volume loss (hollowing under eyes)
• Pigmentation (sun damage or genetics)
• Lifestyle factors (lack of sleep, allergies)

Under-Eye Fillers – The Gold Standard for Volume Loss
How They Work
Medical-grade hyaluronic acid fillers (Restylane®, Juvederm®) instantly plump hollow areas while stimulating collagen production for long-term improvement. Unlike creams, you see immediate results.
Best For:
• Deep tear troughs
• Hollow under-eyes
• Structural shadows
What to Expect
• 15-30 minute procedure
• Minimal downtime (slight swelling for 24-48 hours)
• Results last 9-18 months

✔ Brighten mild pigmentation
✖ Can’t fix volume loss
✖ Limited effect on deep discoloration
Most Effective Ingredients
