Common Target Areas
Revitalizing Tired Eyes
The under-eye area is often one of the first places to show signs of ageing, including dark circles, fine lines, and thin, crepey skin. Polynucleotide (PN) injections offer a powerful regenerative solution specifically designed for this delicate zone. Unlike fillers that primarily add volume, PN treatments work biologically to improve skin health and quality from within.
At PRP London Clinic, our medical team uses specialised polynucleotide products such as Lumi Eyes, Nucleofill Soft Plus Eyes, Plinest Eye, and Vitaran I to target under-eye concerns effectively.
How Polynucleotides Benefit the Under-Eye Area
When injected into the tear trough and surrounding under-eye skin, polynucleotides provide multiple benefits:
- Improved Skin Quality: Stimulate collagen and elastin production, thickening the skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines and crepiness.
- Enhanced Hydration: Attract moisture to plump and hydrate the thin under-eye skin.
- Reduced Dark Circles: By improving skin thickness and potentially microcirculation, PN can lessen the appearance of dark circles caused by thin skin revealing underlying vessels or shadowing from mild hollows.
- Antioxidant Protection: Help protect the delicate skin from free radical damage.
- Brighter Appearance: Contribute to a generally brighter, less tired-looking eye area.
Under-Eye Polynucleotide Products We Use
Our medical team selects from leading products specifically formulated or suitable for the eye area:
- Lumi Eyes: A popular PN product specifically marketed for intense hydration and rejuvenation of the eye area.
- Nucleofill Soft Plus Eyes: A specific formulation from the Nucleofill range designed for the delicate periocular zone.
- Plinest Eye: A high-concentration PN product from Mastelli, tailored for under-eye treatment.
- Vitaran I: Formulated for intradermal application, suitable for improving hydration and quality around the eyes.
The choice depends on your specific concerns and our medical team' assessment during the consultation.
The Under-Eye Treatment Process
Following consultation and cleansing, topical numbing cream is applied to the under-eye area. Our practitioner then uses either a very fine needle or a cannula technique to administer multiple small injections of the chosen polynucleotide product into the superficial layers of the skin around and under the eye. The procedure typically takes 30-45 minutes. Small bumps under the skin immediately after injection are common and expected, usually resolving within 1-2 days.
Expected Results and Timeline
Improvements are gradual as the polynucleotides stimulate cellular activity:
- Weeks 1-4: Initial improvement in hydration and skin brightness.
- Months 1-3: Noticeable reduction in fine lines, improved skin texture and elasticity, and potential lightening of dark circles.
- Optimal Results: Best results are typically seen after completing the recommended course (usually 2-4 sessions).
Treatments are usually spaced 2-4 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 6-9 months can help preserve the results.
PN vs. Tear Trough Fillers
While both treat the under-eye area, they work differently. Tear Trough Fillers (HA) primarily add volume to fill deep hollows immediately. Polynucleotides work biologically over time to improve skin quality, thickness, hydration, and fine lines, offering a more regenerative approach. They can sometimes be used complementarily. Our medical team will advise which is more suitable for your specific concerns (hollowness vs. skin quality issues).
Under-Eye Polynucleotide Pricing
Pricing varies slightly depending on the specific brand used (Lumi Eyes, Nucleofill, Plinest, Vitaran). See the table below for per-session costs.
Safety Considerations
Polynucleotide injections under the eyes are safe when performed by an our experienced practitioners. The main side effects are temporary injection-related bumps, redness, potential bruising, or swelling. The products themselves are highly purified and biocompatible.

Myths vs Facts
Polynucleotides under eyes give instant results like filler.
False. PN works biologically to improve skin over weeks/months. Fillers provide immediate volume for hollows.
The bumps after injection are permanent.
No, the small bumps (blebs) at injection sites are temporary and typically resolve within 1-2 days as the product disperses.
Lumi Eyes is better than Nucleofill or Plinest.
They are all high-quality PN products for the eyes. Our medical team selects the best option based on your specific needs and product characteristics.
Polynucleotides can fix very deep tear troughs.
For significant volume loss/deep hollows, HA Tear Trough Fillers are often more appropriate. PN excels at improving skin quality in the area.
