Dark Circle in Hongdae – Brighten Eyes & Refresh Your Look
Tired of looking exhausted even when you’re well-rested? Dark circles under the eyes can make you appear older, tired, or stressed—no matter how healthy your skin is. At our clinic in Hongdae, we offer specialized dark circle treatments designed to target the root causes and restore a brighter, more youthful appearance to your eyes.
What Causes Dark Circles?
Dark circles are often a result of multiple overlapping factors, including:
- Genetics: Naturally thin skin or pigmentation around the eyes
- Poor Circulation: Blood pooling under the eyes creates a bluish tint
- Volume Loss or Hollowing: Causes shadows that deepen the appearance of circles
- Pigmentation: Due to sun exposure, inflammation, or rubbing
- Fatigue or Dehydration: Worsens puffiness and discoloration
Effective treatment depends on identifying the specific cause—whether it’s vascular, structural, or pigment-based.
Why Treat Dark Circles?
Key Benefits:
✅ Brightens under-eye area for a fresher, younger look
✅ Improves skin tone and reduces discoloration
✅ Smooths hollows and reduces shadowing
✅ Hydrates and firms delicate under-eye skin
✅ Safe, non-surgical procedures with little to no downtime
Dark Circle Treatment Options Offered
Our clinic provides customized under-eye treatments depending on your skin type, anatomy, and root cause:
- Dermal Fillers (Tear Trough Filler)
Adds volume to sunken under-eye hollows, reducing shadows and smoothing the contour. - Laser Toning (Pico / Q-switched)
Targets pigmentation and boosts collagen around the eyes for brighter, firmer skin. - Microneedling / MTS
Improves under-eye skin texture and promotes collagen for thinning or crepey skin. - PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
Uses your own growth factors to reduce pigmentation and improve skin elasticity. - Skin Boosters (e.g., Rejuran i, NCTF)
Injectables designed specifically for delicate under-eye skin to hydrate, firm, and brighten. - Topical Brightening Peels or Serums
Lightens pigmentation and improves circulation in mild cases.
What to Expect During Treatment
Most dark circle treatments take 20–40 minutes and involve minimal discomfort. Numbing cream is applied when needed for injectables or microneedling. Downtime is generally minimal—mild redness or swelling may last 1–2 days, depending on the treatment.
You'll receive aftercare instructions to support recovery and maximize your results, including hydration and sun protection.
Who is a Good Candidate?
You may benefit from dark circle treatment if:
- You have persistent under-eye discoloration or hollowness
- Makeup no longer conceals the darkness effectively
- You want to look more refreshed and youthful
- You are in good overall health with no active infections or allergies to injectables
Treatments are suitable for both men and women, and can be customized for sensitive or darker skin tones.
When Will You See Results?
- Filler: Immediate results, with full effect in 1–2 weeks
- Laser / PRP / Skin Boosters: Visible improvement after 2–3 sessions, with continued brightening over time
- Microneedling: Gradual improvement over 3–6 weeks as collagen builds
A series of treatments may be recommended for optimal and long-lasting results.
