Dark circles are one of the most frustrating and misunderstood skin concerns. They can make you look tired, stressed, or older than you feel — even after a good night’s sleep. At Alcove Aesthetics in Pall Mall, Central London, we see clients every week who are desperate to solve this issue for good. The good news? You can achieve real, long-lasting improvement.
Here, Dr Goziem shares the most effective, doctor-led ways to treat and minimise dark circles for visibly brighter, more youthful eyes.
Why Do We Get Dark Circles?
There isn’t just one cause of dark circles. You might have:
- Pigmentation: Common in darker skin tones, due to genetics or sun exposure
- Hollowing: Volume loss under the eye creates shadows
- Thin skin: Allows blood vessels to show through
- Poor circulation or fatigue: Can worsen the appearance
The best treatment depends on the root cause — and sometimes, it’s a combination.
1. Under-Eye Filler
Best for: Under-eye hollows and volume loss
Filler (usually hyaluronic acid) restores volume to the tear trough area, softening shadows and improving brightness.
Results:
- Instant results
- Lasts 6–12 months
Price at Alcove Aesthetics: £410
2. Polynucleotides for Eyes
Best for: Crepey texture, pigmentation, and fine lines
Plinest polynucleotides stimulate collagen and deeply hydrate the area, gradually improving skin quality and pigmentation.
Results:
- Visible changes in 3–4 weeks
- Best after 3 sessions
Price: £310 per session
3. Exosomes for Brightening
Best for: Dullness, fine lines, tired appearance
Exosomes are packed with growth factors that improve skin regeneration, brightness, and firmness around the eyes.
Results:
- Smoother, firmer skin
- Gradual improvement with each session
Price: £450 per session
4. Skin Boosters
Best for: Dehydrated, tired-looking under-eyes
These ultra-light injectable hydrators smooth and plump the skin, giving a fresher, dewy appearance.
Price: From £250 per session
Which Is Right for You?
Every eye area is different. At Alcove Aesthetics, Dr Goziem will assess:
- Skin thickness and tone
- Volume and elasticity
- Underlying causes (e.g. pigmentation vs hollows)
Often, the best results come from combining treatments over time.
