Under-Eye Concerns

The skin under the eyes is thinner than skin anywhere else on the face, which makes it one of the first places to show dark circles, hollows, puffiness, and fine lines. Genetics, sun exposure, sleep, and the natural loss of collagen and fat as you age all play a role in how this area looks over time. Nowak Aesthetics offers a range of personalized treatments to help smooth, brighten, and restore volume to the under-eye area. Discover more about our under-eye treatments available at Nowak Aesthetics in Chula Vista.

What Causes Under-Eye Concerns?

Dark circles often come from thinning skin that reveals the blood vessels underneath, while hollows develop as the fat pads that once cushioned the eye area shift or shrink with age. Puffiness can be caused by fluid retention, allergies, or genetics, and fine lines form as collagen production slows down. Because each patient’s under-eye concerns come from a different combination of these factors, Nowak Aesthetics builds a personalized plan based on what is actually happening in your skin.

• Ultherapy: an ultrasound treatment that lifts and tightens skin around the eyes by stimulating deep collagen production

Are You a Candidate?

Most adults who are bothered by dark circles, hollows, puffiness, or fine lines under the eyes are candidates for one or more of these treatments. Because the under-eye area is thin and sensitive, our team will examine your skin, discuss your goals, and recommend the treatment or combination of treatments best suited to your anatomy. Schedule a consultation to find out which option is the right fit for you.

What to Expect

Every under-eye treatment plan starts with a one-on-one consultation, where we take a close look at the skin, discuss your goals, and walk you through what the treatment day will feel like. Most under-eye treatments at Nowak Aesthetics are quick, in-office procedures with little to no downtime, and topical numbing is available for patients who want extra comfort during injectable treatments.

Recovery

Recovery depends on the treatment chosen. Injectable treatments like Ariessence PDGF may cause mild swelling or bruising for a few days, while Emface and Ultherapy typically allow patients to return to their normal routine immediately. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions before you leave your appointment.

Results

Results build gradually as collagen regenerates, typically becoming noticeable within a few weeks and continuing to improve over the following months. Many patients combine treatments, such as pairing Ariessence PDGF with Emface, for a more complete result. Our Define the Under Eyes Signature Look combines several of these treatments into one plan built specifically for this area. View our before and after gallery to see real results from Nowak Aesthetics patients.
