Are you tired of being told that you look tired, even though you've had 8 hours of sleep and actually feel quite alert? The skin under the eyes is thin and delicate, and it's often where the first signs of ageing or life's stresses show up. But there is hope, and it doesn't have to be complicated or drastic.

At Estetikcentrum in Malmö, we offer mesotherapy, which is a treatment that is perfectly adapted for that sensitive area under the eyes. With the help of small injections, we boost the skin from the inside and give you a more alert and smoother expression that makes you look (and feel) younger.

What causes wrinkles under the eyes and how does mesotherapy help?

Wrinkles under the eyes occur for several reasons. These include ageing, sun exposure, stress, lack of sleep and sometimes even genetics. When the skin loses moisture, elasticity and essential nutrients, it also loses its elasticity. This can lead to fine lines, shadows and a feeling of looking tired, regardless of how you actually feel.

This is where mesotherapy comes in! It is a treatment where we inject a wonderful cocktail of vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids and hyaluronic acid directly into the skin, right where the need is greatest. Under the eyes, we work superficially and gently, with very small amounts that boost the skin's own functions such as moisture, elasticity and cell renewal. So mesotherapy doesn't just temporarily smooth the skin. It improves the quality of the skin deep down and helps it recover from within.

Pst! Did you know that mesotherapy is also excellent for treating and preventing dull skin, small scars, pigment spots, acne, large pores, hair loss, rosacea and cellulite?

How the treatment works

The treatment starts with a consultation where we talk about your preferences and see if mesotherapy is the right method for you. When treating the under-eye area, we use very thin needles and a customized mixture specially designed for this sensitive area.

The treatment itself takes around 30 minutes and is relatively painless. You may feel small pricks, but we use numbing cream if necessary to make it as comfortable as possible. Afterwards, you may feel a slight swelling or redness, but this usually disappears within a couple of hours.

For best results, we recommend a course of several treatments. How many you need is difficult to know before we have met you, but a combination of 3-5 treatments is usually optimal for most people. The treatments are then done every few weeks.

Visible results

After a course of mesotherapy, many people notice that the skin under the eyes is smoother, more hydrated and has regained its radiance. Your eyes look more alert, without losing your expression or changing your features. It's still you, but with a fresher version of your everyday glow.

The effect builds up gradually and improves over time, especially if you follow up with good skin care at home and perhaps supplement with other treatments we offer. Feel free to contact us and we will talk more about how we can help you to finer skin and better self-esteem.
