What is the future of under-eye treatments?

Question

I'm curious about products in development that may change how the under eye is treated. Are there new fillers in development? Does DermaClae have a use case for under-eyes? Or will dermal fillers and fat transfers be the mainstay treatments for the foreseeable future?

Yong-Heon Ha, MD · Answer

We always recommend that patients first understand the main causes of their under-eye concerns, whether they are related to pigment, structural factors, skin thinness, or even fat protrusion under the eyes. Not all under-eye treatments serve the same purpose, so the best approach depends on the underlying cause.
Collagen boosters can definitely help improve multiple concerns to some extent, especially skin quality and thinness. However, in cases where there is a structural hollow or sunken under-eye area, collagen boosters alone may not provide enough volume or support. There are also cases where under-eye fat causes irregular contours or puffiness, which may require a completely different approach.
Rather than focusing on trends or a single “best” treatment, we believe it’s more important to identify the primary causes and tailor the treatment plan to each patient’s anatomy and goals.

Under eye treatments can vary widely based on the concern.  Fillers and fat transfer can often help when the concern is volume loss.  If there is skin laxity the correct treatment will depend on the degree of correction needed.  Anything from microneedling to surgical blepharoplasty may be recommended.  Other treatments such as Morpheous8 can address overall skin tone and texture.  Lasers may be appropriate for others who need a more aggressive treatment.
