Under Eye Rejuvenation In Jesmond & Newcastle
The delicate skin around your eyes is often the first place to show signs of fatigue, aging, and stress. Whether you’re noticing dark circles, puffiness, or crepey fine lines, these changes can make you look more tired than you feel.
What causes dark circles and under-eye bags?
There isn’t just one reason you might notice tired-looking eyes. Common causes include:
- Genetics – naturally thin or translucent under-eye skin
- Volume loss – as collagen, fat and elastin decrease with age
- Pigmentation – from sun exposure or inherited darker skin tones
- Lifestyle factors – sleep, stress, smoking or allergies
- Skin quality – loss of hydration and collagen leading to crepiness
Advanced Treatments for Under-Eye Rejuvenation
1. Polynucleotide Eye Rejuvenation
Polynucleotides-specifically PlinestTM -are one of the most exciting innovations in regenerative aesthetics. These bio-stimulatory injectables are derived from highly purified DNA fragments that help your skin repair and renew itself from within.
They work by:
- Stimulating fibroblast activity to rebuild collagen and elastin
- Improving skin texture and tightness
- Enhancing microcirculation, reducing dark circles
- Hydrating the delicate under-eye tissue
The result is smoother, firmer and brighter skin- without adding unnecessary volume. A course of 2-3 treatments is typically recommended for optimal results.
2. TeoxaneTM RHA1 and Redensity 1 “Skin boosters” for Under-Eye Skin Quality
RHA 1 and Redensity 1 are premium treatments specifically designed to rejuvenate thin, fragile areas such as the under eyes.
RHA 1 (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid)
RHA1 uses a uniquely elastic form of hyaluronic acid that moves naturally with facial expressions. It:
- Smooths fine lines and crepiness
- Deeply hydrates the skin
- Improves elasticity and luminosity
This treatment is ideal for those with early signs of under-eye ageing who want a refreshed, dewy glow.
Redensity 1
Redensity 1 is a light hyaluronic acid combined with antioxidants, amino acids, and vitamins, designed to restore radiance and skin health. It:
- Improves skin density and tone
- Reduces dark circles and dullness
- Creates a naturally bright, rested appearance
Both treatments can be performed as a course for cumulative collagen stimulation, or used in combination with Polynucleotides for a comprehensive rejuvenation plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the under-eye area look tired or hollow?
The skin under the eyes is very thin and delicate. With time, we lose collagen, elasticity, and hydration in this area. This can lead to dark circles, fine lines, crepey skin, and a tired appearance- even when you feel well rested.
What treatments do you offer for under-eye rejuvenation?
At Dr Fiona Steedman Aesthetics, we use advanced injectable skin treatments designed specifically for the delicate eye area, including:
- PlinestTM(polynucleotide skin regeneration)
- TeoxaneTM Redensity 1
- TeoxaneTM RHA 1
These treatments focus on skin quality and hydration, rather than adding volume.
What is PlinestTM and how does it work under the eyes?
PlinestTM is a polynucleotide injectable derived from purified DNA fragments. It works by:
- Stimulating skin repair and regeneration
- Improving skin elasticity and texture
- Enhancing hydration and radiance
Plinest is ideal for patients with thin, crepey, or tired-looking under-eye skin, and for those who want a natural, non-volumising result.
What is TeoxaneTM Redensity 1?
Redensity 1 is a skin-boosting injectable containing hyaluronic acid, amino acids, antioxidants, and vitamins. It is designed to:
- Deeply hydrate the under-eye skin
- Improve fine lines and skin texture
- Brighten dull or tired eyes
It does not add bulk or volume, making it suitable for delicate areas.
What is TeoxaneTM RHA 1 and how is it different?
RHA 1 is part of the Resilient Hyaluronic Acid (RHA) range. It is specifically formulated for areas of fine lines and fragile skin, such as under the eyes. RHA 1:
- Provides gentle hydration
- Moves naturally with facial expressions
- Improves smoothness and elasticity
It is often used when skin needs subtle support rather than volume.
How do I know which treatment is right for me?
During your consultation, Dr Fiona Steedman will assess:
- Skin thickness and quality
- Degree of dehydration or crepiness
- Presence of fine lines or shadowing
- Your previous treatments and goals
Often, a bespoke combination approach is recommended for the best, most natural outcome.
Will these treatments help dark circles?
These treatments can improve dark circles caused by thin skin or dehydration by improving skin quality and light reflection.
They are less effective for dark circles caused by pigmentation or prominent blood vessels, which will be discussed during consultation.
Is under-eye treatment painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort. A very fine needle or cannula is used, and numbing cream can be applied if needed.
What is the downtime after treatment?
Downtime is usually minimal. You may experience:
- Mild swelling
- Temporary redness
- Small bruises (which can be covered with makeup after 24 hours)
Most patients return to normal activities the same or next day.
How long do results last?
Results vary depending on the product used and your skin:
- PlinestTM: Results build gradually and can last several months
- Redensity 1: Typically lasts 6-9 months
- RHA 1: Results often last around 9-12 months
Maintenance treatments may be recommended.
Are these treatments safe for the eye area?
Yes: when performed by a medically trained, experienced practitioner using appropriate products and techniques.
Dr Fiona Steedman uses products specifically suited to the under-eye area and prioritises safety and natural results.
Is this the same as tear trough filler?
No. These treatments focus on skin rejuvenation and hydration, not structural volume replacement.
They are ideal for patients who are not suitable for tear trough filler or who want a more subtle, regenerative approach.
How many treatments will I need?
Some patients see improvement after one session, but a course of 2-3 treatments may be recommended for optimal results, particularly with PlinestTM or Redensity 1.
Can under-eye rejuvenation be combined with other treatments?
Yes. These treatments can be safely combined with:
- Anti-wrinkle injections
- Medical-grade skincare
- Laser or light-based treatments
Your treatment plan will be tailored to you.
