Tired Eyes? Here’s How to Brighten, Tighten & Refresh Your Under-Eyes
If your under-eyes are giving tired, dull, or puffy—even when you’re well-rested—you’re not alone. Dark circles, hollowness, and fine lines can make you look exhausted or older than you feel, no matter how much sleep you get.
Whether it’s collagen loss, vascular pigmentation, or skin laxity, there are customized solutions for you that deliver real, long-lasting results.
Tired Eyes? Here’s What’s Causing It
Before we dive into treatments, let’s talk about why your under-eyes look tired in the first place:
Collagen & elastin loss – Thinning skin makes veins more visible, causing dark circles & hollowness.
Vascular concerns – Poor circulation can darken the under-eye area and lead to puffiness.
Sun damage & pigmentation – UV exposure speeds up aging, weakening delicate skin & making dark circles worse.
Dehydration & skin laxity – Loss of moisture reduces firmness, causing crepey texture & sagging.

PRP Under-Eye Injections – Natural Regeneration
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) uses your body’s own growth factors to:
Stimulate collagen for thicker, stronger under-eye skin
Brighten dark circles & improve circulation
Hydrate & improve skin elasticity
Reduce hollowness & fine lines naturally
Why PRP injections for dark circles?
Over time, PRP strengthens your skin’s foundation, leading to long-term improvements in under-eye concerns.
By promoting the synthesis of elastin fibers, peptides improve skin elasticity and firmness, counteracting sagging and loss of tone.
Hyaluronic Acid-Based Under-Eye Filler – Immediate Volume & Brightness
For immediate correction of under-eye hollowness and dark shadows, hyaluronic acid-based filler is a solution that:
Restores lost volume for a more refreshed, youthful appearance
Reduces tired, sunken eyes
Provides instant results with natural, long-lasting hydration
Blends seamlessly for a soft, undetectable look
Why under-eye filler for hollowness?
If hollowness is your biggest concern, this is one of the fastest ways to restore brightness and eliminate the “tired” look.
🚨Not everyone is a good candidate for under-eye filler. As nurse injectors, we approach under-eye filler with caution. It’s one of the hardest areas to perfect—no matter how experienced the injector is. Plus, it’s a common spot for filler migration (when filler moves outside its intended area).

@subtleenhancements There are a lot of factors that come into play to be the correct candidate for some cosmetic treatments. Tear trough filler is one of them that we see folks in the chair asking for when they seek for a more refreshed appearance. While not everyone is a candidate for tear trough filler we can recommend other treatments or products to help appear more awake.
