Dark Circles Removal

Laser Treatment of Dark Circles

1) Tag: Non-Surgical

2) Technical Principles

Laser has the characteristics of good monochromaticity, good coherence, good directionality and high brightness, and has specific biological effects. The laser that acts on the dark circles is specially cooled before scanning the damaged area, effectively destroying melanin and sealing blood vessels around the eyes, so that the pigment of the dark circles will slowly fade, thereby achieving the effect of treating dark circles.

3) Applicable groups and taboo groups

① Applicable groups: Suitable for those who need to remove dark circles caused by congenital melanin or external factors.

② Contraindicated groups

a. Pregnant women, people who are sensitive to light and those who have recently used light-sensitive drugs (retinoic acid, tetracycline, etc.);

b. People with scarring constitution;

c. People with high blood pressure, diabetes, taking anti-inflammatory drugs and antihypertensive drugs;

d. People with sun exposure and facial inflammation within 2 weeks If so, treatment should be contraindicated.

e. People with various mental and psychological disorders and endocrine disorders should use with caution.

4) Technical methods

① Routine disinfection and choose anesthesia method according to the patient’s specific conditions.

② Turn on the power and adjust the appropriate energy parameters.

③ The light spot irradiates the diseased area.

5) Equipment

Lasers are divided into several types according to the different emitting materials: solid, liquid, gas, semiconductor, free electron, etc. According to the different energy release methods, it is divided into continuous laser, semi-continuous laser or quasi-continuous laser and pulse laser. Various types of lasers are widely used clinically. Most modern lasers used for dark circles make full use of the "photothermal separation effect" of lasers.

6) Risks and complications

① Local swelling: There is local swelling after all laser treatments, which is the most severe 2-3 days after surgery and may be accompanied by pain. It will gradually subside in 5-7 days. If there is swelling and pain, cold compresses and analgesics should be applied.

② Erythema: Generally no treatment is required and it can be relieved and subsided within a few days. Be careful not to get wet or bruised to avoid infection.

③ Pigmentation: It is a major complication of laser treatment. It usually disappears on its own within 2-6 months, and can last for more than half a year in the elderly. Sunlight exposure should be avoided.

④ Itching: Do not scratch to prevent infection.

⑤ Infection: Pay attention to prevention and go to the hospital for examination immediately after infection.

⑥ Scar formation: Exfoliative laser treatment may form scars. Once formed, scar hyperplasia should be treated.

7) Treatment course and recovery time

Because there are many types of lasers, the treatment courses for each technology are different. For example, DL laser treatment generally takes about 3-5 courses to see obvious results. The swelling is heaviest 2-3 days after surgery, and may be accompanied by pain. It gradually subsides in 5-7 days, and the pigmentation can subside on its own in 2-6 months. [1]

8) Precautions

① Clean the face before treatment and do not leave any cosmetics.

② Address the affected area and protect your eyes to avoid burns.

③ After treatment, the treated area should not be exposed to water or rub until the scab falls off. Avoid spicy food, tobacco and alcohol. In the recent period, dark-colored foods such as coffee, cola, etc. should be avoided. The scab will fall off on its own and should not be peeled off by force.

④ Do not participate in strenuous exercise before the scabs fall off to avoid infection caused by sweating.

Photon treatment of dark circles

1) Tag: non-surgical

2) Technical principle

Photon rejuvenation has selective photothermal Principle of action and biostimulant effect. The shorter wavelength light in the output strong pulse light can be preferentially absorbed by the pigments in the skin and the oxyhemoglobin in the blood, causing blood vessels to coagulate, and the pigment groups or pigment cells to be destroyed and decomposed without damaging the normal skin. Thereby achieving the effect of treating dark circles.

Ultrasound treatment of dark circles

1) Tag: non-surgical

2) Technical principle

Ultrasound that acts on human tissue can It produces a subtle vibration massage effect on tissue cells, causing cytoplasmic activity and movement, improving cell enzyme activity, promoting blood circulation and metabolism, and making the skin shiny and elastic, thereby removing dark circles.

E-light treatment of dark circles

1) Tag: non-surgical

2) Technical principle

E-light contains light energy and There are two technologies of thermal energy (bipolar radio frequency). Among them, eLezi technology is a combination of intense pulsed light and radio frequency, which is used for skin whitening treatment. The eLezi laser treatment system has a special dynamic cooling device. The laser emitted is scanned at the damaged area after a special cooling process. It effectively destroys melanin and seals blood vessels around the eyes, so that the pigment of dark circles will slowly fade. , thereby achieving the effect of treating dark circles.
