Before you decide

Is it right for you?

We tell you frankly when this treatment is a good option and when we'd rather assess you first.

Ideal if…

  • Your dark circles are dark or pigmented
  • The area under your eyes looks tired or puffy
  • You prefer a gentle treatment that doesn't fill the area
  • You want to improve the thin skin around your eyes
  • You want to complement your rest and skincare habits

We assess you first if…

  • Your dark circles are mainly due to a hollow groove: another option may suit you better
  • You have prominent fat pads (eye bags), which mesotherapy doesn't improve
  • You have active herpes, irritation or infection in the area
  • You're pregnant or breastfeeding

Before you decide

The questions we hear most, answered straight.

Does it hurt?
The area is sensitive, although the micro-injections are very superficial and we use fine needles. A topical anesthetic can be applied; almost everyone describes it as quick, tolerable pricks.
How long do the results last?
It varies with the cause of your dark circles, your genetics and habits such as sun exposure and rest. The improvement can last a while, although maintenance is usually needed.

How we do it at Quantum

A medical protocol, not a catalog

Every plan starts with a consultation: we listen to what you want to achieve, review your medical history and decide whether this treatment is right for you.

  1. 01

    Medical consultation

    Before any treatment is applied, we review your case and explain what is possible and what isn't.

  2. 02

    D10 Facial Scanner

    Everything starts with a consultation, not a catalog: we analyze your skin and scalp before recommending any treatment.

  3. 03

    Follow-up visit

    We review the result with you and adjust the plan if needed.

What it is and how it works

Under-eye mesotherapy

Under-eye mesotherapy delivers selected active ingredients through very superficial micro-injections under the eyes. It aims to soften dark discoloration, reduce puffiness and improve the quality of the very thin skin in that area. It doesn't add volume: it works on color and appearance, not on hollowing.

It's for pigmented or dark circles, or for people who notice the area looks puffy and tired and want to complement their rest habits. If your dark circles are mainly a hollow groove, hyaluronic acid is usually a better fit, and if there are prominent fat pads, mesotherapy won't improve them. We don't apply it if you have herpes, infection or irritation in the area, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

The session lasts 20 to 30 minutes and a mild bruise may remain for a few days. Improvement is gradual, session by session, and the number of sessions depends on your case. The price is set during your consultation, together with the diagnosis of your type of dark circles.

Your session

Step by step

Here's how your treatment goes, from the consultation to the follow-up visit.

  1. 01

    Diagnosis with the facial analyzer

    With an exam and the facial analyzer we determine your type of dark circles (vascular, mixed, hollow or pigmented) and tell you clearly whether mesotherapy is the right option.

    Medical consultation before starting

  2. 02

    Your mesotherapy session

    After cleansing the area, we apply the active ingredients through very superficial micro-injections, with fine needles and a careful technique, given how delicate the eye area is.

    20 to 30 min

  3. 03

    Follow-up between sessions

    Between sessions we check how tone and puffiness change, and agree with you on how many more sessions are needed, along with your at-home care.

Safety and natural results

Less is more

We want you to look like yourself, at your best. These are the criteria we follow in every session.

Frequently asked questions

We answer your questions

Have another question? Message us on WhatsApp and our medical team will answer.

How much does it cost?

It's quoted during your consultation, because it depends on how many sessions you need and what type of dark circles you have. During the medical consultation we diagnose your dark circles and, before we begin, give you the price along with your aftercare instructions.

Does it hurt?

The area is sensitive, although the micro-injections are very superficial and we use fine needles. A topical anesthetic can be applied; almost everyone describes it as quick, tolerable pricks.

Does it work on every type of dark circles?

No. It gives the best results on puffy or pigmented dark circles. If the cause is hollowing, hyaluronic acid for under-eye hollows may suit you better, either alone or combined with skinbooster or mesotherapy; we decide during your consultation.

How many sessions will I need?

Several sessions are usually recommended, spaced apart, since tone and puffiness improve gradually. The number depends on your response and your type of dark circles; we set it during your consultation.

How soon will I see results?

Improvement builds with each session; tone and puffiness are usually the first to change. Right after each session the area may look slightly swollen, and that is not the final result.

What side effects are possible?

Because the skin in this area is very thin, small marks, mild swelling or a bruise may appear and fade within a few days. Not rubbing the area and applying a gentle cold compress helps recovery.

How long do the results last?

It varies with the cause of your dark circles, your genetics and habits such as sun exposure and rest. The improvement can last a while, although maintenance is usually needed.

Who shouldn't have it?

We rule it out during pregnancy or breastfeeding, if you're allergic to the ingredients, or if there is active herpes or infection in the area. If your dark circles are due to prominent fat pads, we'll guide you toward another option during your consultation.
