Dark circles often make us look tired and exhausted, even when we feel fit and rested. The thin skin under the eyes is especially prone to becoming darker and losing volume over time, which leads to the typical formation of shadows. At the Kuzbari Centre we offer specialised treatment options against dark circles which bring back your natural radiance. Through the use of fillers and, if necessary, a lower eyelid correction, we can reduce dark circles in a targeted way and help you to a fresh, alert look. Our experienced specialists, Dr. Christoph Grill, DDr. Jessica Wittmann and Dr. Shawqi Arafat, are at your side with their expertise and their aesthetic instinct.

Why do dark circles arise?

Dark circles frequently arise through a combination of loss of volume, genetic factors and age-related changes to the skin. With increasing age the skin under the eyes loses elasticity and firmness, as a result of which the blood vessels and the tissue beneath show through more strongly. In addition the tissue under the eyes can sink, which makes the area look darker and creates a shadow effect. In some people genetic factors or lifestyle also intensify the formation of dark circles.

Treatment options at the Kuzbari Centre

1. Filler treatment

For many of our patients treatment with fillers is a quick and effective solution for making the eye area look fresher and fuller again. Special hyaluronic acid fillers are used which fill up the missing volume under the eyes in a targeted way and thus reduce the formation of shadows. The procedure is minimally invasive, virtually pain-free and shows immediate results – your eye area looks visibly refreshed and rejuvenated.

2. Lower eyelid correction

If the slackening of the skin of the lower eyelid or a bulging of the fatty tissue is responsible for the dark circles, a lower eyelid correction can make sense. In this procedure excess skin and protruding fatty tissue are removed or repositioned in order to create a harmonious, smooth eye area. Our specialists carry out this procedure extremely precisely and with minimal scarring. Thanks to their many years of experience we can achieve a natural result that preserves your individual facial expression and simply makes you look more rested.

Course of the treatment

1. Consultation: in the first step we hold a detailed consultation in which we discuss your wishes and your individual situation. Our experts analyse your eye area and inform you about which treatment methods are best suited in your case. Transparency and your satisfaction come first here.
2. Treatment: depending on the method chosen, the treatment is as a rule carried out on an outpatient basis. In the filler treatment the hyaluronic acid is injected gently under the skin in order to increase the volume and to soften the shadows. Should a lower eyelid correction be required, we likewise carry out the procedure on an outpatient basis, under local anaesthetic or twilight sedation. Through precise techniques we remove the excess tissue and shape the eye area harmoniously, so that a natural, rejuvenated result is created.
3. Aftercare: directly after the treatment slight swelling or redness may occur, which in most cases subsides within a few days. Comprehensive aftercare ensures that you feel well looked after and that your result comes into its own optimally. With the lower eyelid correction in particular, regular checks are provided for in order to accompany the course of healing and to make sure that you are fully satisfied with the result.
