Under Eye Treatments

The Procedure

Under eye concerns such as dullness, dark circles, fine lines, puffiness and festoons vary widely between individuals. GMC Cosmedical offers a range of minimally invasive treatment options that may assist in addressing these concerns and support a more refreshed appearance in the delicate under eye area.

All treatments are performed in clinic by a qualified practitioner. Your treating practitioner will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your individual presentation during consultation.

In accordance with Australian regulations, specific treatment details will be discussed during your consultation.

  • Results: Individual outcomes vary and will be discussed during consultation.
  • Downtime: Varies depending on the treatment recommended. Many patients are able to resume normal daily activities shortly after treatment.
  • Discomfort: Sensations vary between treatments and will be discussed with your practitioner prior to treatment.

Common Under Eye Concerns

  • 1. Dullness & Dark Circles

    Under eye dullness and dark circles may be associated with reduced hydration in the delicate skin around the eyes. Treatments that deliver active ingredients directly into the under eye area, such as NCTF Boost, may help support a more refreshed and revitalised appearance over time.

  • 2. Fine Lines & Crepey Skin

    Fine lines and crepey texture may be addressed with treatments that support hydration, skin renewal and collagen production. Depending on your skin, your practitioner may consider NCTF Boost or laser resurfacing.

  • 3. Puffiness, Under Eye Bags & Festoons

    Puffiness, skin laxity and festoons can be more complex concerns that often require treatments targeting deeper layers of the skin. Options such as radiofrequency microneedling (Morpheus8) or laser resurfacing may be considered to support collagen regeneration and skin tightening. A thorough assessment is essential, as not all concerns of this type are suitable for non-surgical treatment.

  • 4. Personalised Treatment Approach

    As under eye concerns vary widely between individuals, all treatment plans are tailored to your specific concerns and circumstances following a thorough consultation and assessment by a qualified practitioner. In some cases, a combination of treatments may be recommended.
