FAQs

At Unique Cosmetic Clinic, we customize every plan based on the cause of your dark circles— whether pigmentation, volume loss, or thinning skin. Our advanced options include PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), Restylane Refyne, Redensity II, Eye Bright fillers, TRL Contour laser, and Perfect Derma Peel. Each targets a specific concern to brighten, firm, and rejuvenate the under-eye area without surgery.

Dermal fillers instantly restore lost volume and reduce hollow shadows for a refreshed look, while PRF uses your body’s natural growth factors to stimulate collagen and improve texture over time. Laser treatments such as TRL Contour focus on pigmentation and skin tightening. Many patients benefit most from a combination approach designed to treat multiple causes of dark circles simultaneously.

Yes. All treatments performed at UC Clinic are Health Canada-approved and suitable for all skin tones. Our medical team carefully evaluates your under-eye area before selecting the safest, most effective method—whether it’s PRF, filler, or light-based therapy—to ensure naturallooking, smooth results with minimal risk or downtime.

Results vary by treatment. Fillers often deliver immediate results that last 6–12 months, while PRF and laser therapies build gradual improvement over several weeks as new collagen forms. With proper skin care, hydration, and sun protection, your refreshed appearance can last a year or longer.

Absolutely. Consistent sleep, hydration, UV protection, and medical-grade skincare play a major role in maintaining results. Using products with hyaluronic acid, peptides, or antioxidants can strengthen under-eye skin. Our specialists also recommend periodic maintenance treatments—such as PRF or light chemical peels—to keep the area bright and firm.

Under-eye dark circles can be caused by more than one factor, and the “right” treatment depends on the root cause. Some clients have pigmentation-based dark circles (brown/grey discoloration), others have volume loss and under-eye hollowness that creates a shadow, and many have a mix of thin skin, visible vessels, and texture changes. At Unique Cosmetic Clinic, we assess your under-eye anatomy, skin thickness, pigmentation pattern, and lifestyle triggers, then design a treatment plan using options like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), under-eye fillers (Restylane Refyne, Eye Bright, Redensity II), TRL Contour laser, and Perfect Derma Peel to target the specific drivers of your dark circles.

If your dark circles look worse in certain lighting, appear as “hollows,” or are linked to a visible tear trough depression, under-eye filler may be recommended to restore volume and reduce shadowing. If the main issue is thin, crepey under-eye skin, early collagen loss, or dullness where you want gradual improvement in skin quality, PRF can be a strong option because it supports collagen stimulation using your body’s own growth factors. At UC Clinic in Richmond Hill, we often select one approach—or combine them carefully—based on safety, tissue thickness, and the exact appearance of your under-eye area.

PRF is a regenerative treatment derived from your own blood, processed to concentrate platelets, fibrin, and growth factors. When injected under the eyes, PRF can support collagen production, improve skin texture, and gradually brighten the under-eye area with a natural-looking result. Many clients in Toronto and Richmond Hill prefer PRF because it is autologous (from your own body) and often chosen when the goal is to improve delicate under-eye skin quality with minimal downtime rather than create immediate volume.

These products are used for slightly different under-eye goals depending on your anatomy and the type of dark circles you have. Restylane Refyne is often used to soften hollowness and improve the appearance of shadowing by restoring lost volume. Eye Bright is described on your page as being designed for the under-eye area to reduce shadows and brighten the look. Redensity II is positioned as a hydrating, brightening option that combines hyaluronic acid with antioxidants for delicate under-eye rejuvenation. At UC Clinic, product selection depends on skin thickness, degree of hollowness, and the natural contours of your tear trough area.

Yes—TRL Contour is described on your page as a fractional laser that targets pigmentation and improves skin texture by stimulating collagen production, which can reduce the appearance of under-eye dark circles and help tighten the area. Because the treatment is close to the eyes, intraocular eye shields are typically used to protect the eyes during laser procedures. At UC Clinic, your candidacy for TRL Contour is determined by pigment type, skin tone, sensitivity, and your ability to follow aftercare, including strict sun protection.

Perfect Derma Peel is a medical-grade peel designed to exfoliate and brighten, which can be useful when dark circles are influenced by surface pigmentation and overall dullness. It may not be the first choice if the primary issue is deep hollowness or prominent vascular show-through, where volume restoration or collagen support may be more effective. At UC Clinic in Richmond Hill, we use a customized approach: peels may be selected when pigment correction is the priority, while fillers and PRF are often chosen when volume and skin thickness are the key remembered drivers.

Many clients with dark circles also notice under-eye texture changes—like crepey skin, fine lines, or early laxity—and these often need a combined plan. At UC Clinic, PRF can support collagen and texture improvement, fillers can address hollowness and shadowing, and TRL Contour can target pigment and refine texture. Treating dark circles effectively often means improving both the color and the structure of the under-eye area rather than focusing on pigmentation alone.

The timeline depends on the modality. Under-eye fillers can create a more refreshed look relatively quickly once swelling settles, because they address shadowing and volume loss. PRF typically improves gradually as collagen stimulation progresses over the following weeks. TRL Contour laser and Perfect Derma Peel may produce improvement in pigmentation and texture over a treatment and recovery cycle, with results continuing to refine as the skin renews. UC Clinic sets expectations based on your treatment choice and whether your dark circles are pigment-driven, volume-driven, or mixed.

In general, hyaluronic acid-based under-eye fillers provide correction for a period of time that varies by product choice, metabolism, and under-eye anatomy, while PRF tends to deliver more gradual improvement related to skin quality and collagen response. Laser and peel treatments may also provide benefits that depend on ongoing sun protection and skincare maintenance. At UC Clinic in Richmond Hill, we discuss expected longevity during consultation and recommend a maintenance strategy to help keep your under-eye area bright and youthful-looking.

Some clients are not ideal candidates for under-eye filler if they have significant under-eye puffiness, certain structural features, or skin characteristics that increase the risk of uneven correction. PRF may be deferred if there are contraindications related to health status or if the expected benefit would be limited by a primarily anatomical shadow problem needing structural support. In these situations, UC Clinic may guide you toward laser-based texture improvement (TRL Contour), pigment-focused options (Perfect Derma Peel when appropriate), or a staged plan that addresses the under-eye safely over time.

Yes. Many clients who come to UC Clinic for wrinkle treatment in Toronto or facial treatments in Richmond Hill add under-eye rejuvenation because dark circles can affect the “overall tired look” even when other areas are treated. Depending on your skin’s tolerance and downtime preferences, your plan may coordinate under-eye PRF or filler with skin resurfacing or skin quality treatments. UC Clinic sequences treatments carefully to avoid over-treating the delicate under-eye area while still achieving a balanced, refreshed appearance.

Preparation depends on whether you are receiving PRF, dermal fillers, laser, or a peel. Generally, UC Clinic advises clients to disclose medications and supplements, avoid tanning and excessive sun exposure, and follow any pre-treatment skincare instructions—especially before laser or peel procedures. If injections are planned, we often discuss bruise-minimizing strategies and realistic post-treatment expectations so you can schedule appropriately and feel confident going into your appointment.

Aftercare varies by treatment. Injection-based procedures may require short-term care to reduce swelling and bruising, while TRL Contour laser and Perfect Derma Peel typically involve gentle skincare, barrier support, and strict sun protection while the under-eye area heals and renews. UC Clinic provides customized aftercare steps based on your treatment and skin sensitivity because the under-eye area is delicate and results depend heavily on appropriate healing and maintenance.

Dark circles can recur because some causes are ongoing—genetics, natural aging and collagen decline, lifestyle factors (sleep quality, hydration, screen strain), and sun exposure that triggers pigment. UC Clinic focuses on long-term strategies by selecting a treatment that matches your root cause (volume, pigment, skin thinness/texture) and then supporting it with preventative care, including sun protection, eye-area skincare guidance, and maintenance sessions when needed.

During your consultation at Unique Cosmetic Clinic, we evaluate the under-eye area for pigmentation, hollowness (tear trough), skin thickness, texture, and the presence of shadows or visible vessels. We discuss your goals—whether you want brighter tone, reduced hollows, smoother texture, or an overall refreshed look—and your comfort with downtime. Based on this, we build a customized plan using PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), dermal fillers (Restylane Refyne, Eye Bright, Redensity II), TRL Contour laser (with intraocular eye shields), and/or Perfect Derma Peel to safely target the root causes of your under-eye dark circles in Toronto and Richmond Hill.
