Eliminate dark circles, eye bags

Dark circles under the eyes can be eliminated in 2 different ways:

  • Hyaluronic acid filler to eliminate dark circles under the eyes: In many cases this is a quick, good, cheap solution, but it has a drawback, the result is temporary, it lasts a few months.
  • Surgery to eliminate dark circles under the eyes: This is the definitive solution, it costs more but lasts for many years. It requires simple operation.

Below we discuss these two possibilities, so that you can evaluate the one you are most interested in.

Clínica Sanza in Barcelona is a reference center in the treatment of dark circles under the eyes.

Remove dark circles under the eyes with hyaluronic acid (temporary)

Clínica Sanza in Barcelona, is a reference center in the treatment of dark circles under the eyes with hyaluronic acid.

What is the treatment of dark circles under the eyes?

The treatment consists of applying hyaluronic acid with a dermostructuring complex in the lower eyelid area, repositioning the supporting ligaments and the juvenile fat. Restoring the eyelids to their pre-dark circles characteristics.

As this new hyaluronic acid has unique dynamic properties, it allows us to preserve the natural movements of our eyelids, without losing our gestures or the characteristics of our eyes.

If you do not like the result, it is reversible

One of the fears of people who come to aesthetic medicine offices asking for a hyaluronic acid filler for dark circles under the eyes is that they will not like the result. If you are afraid that you won’t like the result, don’t worry, it can be returned to the way it was before. The most important thing with this treatment is that the result is natural and matches your face.

HYALURONIDASE ! this magic word is your peace of mind.

It is an enzyme that has the ability to degrade hyaluronic acid. In the field of aesthetic medicine, hyaluronidase is used to dissolve hyaluronic acid in cases where you do not like the result, due to complications or adverse reactions caused by hyaluronic acid dermal fillers.

At Clínica Sanza we use the best hyaluronic acid we know, the one that lasts longer, the one that gives the best results.

Beware of saving money at a low-cost center, the result will not last.

The duration of hyaluronic acid once injected into the area of dark circles under the eyes can vary depending on several factors. In general, the duration of the results can range from 8 to 12 months or even longer if the product is of high quality.

Hyaluronic acid is a resorbable material, which means that over time it is broken down and metabolized naturally in the body. The rate of resorption can be affected by the concentration and cross-linking of the hyaluronic acid used, as well as the individual’s location and metabolism.

It is important to note that the duration of results can also be affected by post-treatment care and individual lifestyle habits.

Hyaluronic acid is carefully injected into the skin layers using a fine needle or cannula. Sometimes several punctures are necessary to distribute the product well and obtain an optimal result.

Don’t just go anywhere. It is essential to keep in mind that learning how to inject hyaluronic acid safely and effectively requires proper training and in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy, injection techniques and the appropriate choice of hyaluronic acid for each patient. Performing these injections without proper training and experience can have risks, such as injury, swelling, bruising or allergic reactions in the patient.

Yes, you do not need to rest unless you have a profession with risk of hitting the area. What we advise is to avoid going to the gym for the first two days.

You may have small bruises that go away in 24 to 48 hours and minimal swelling.

Do not make a mistake with Botulinum Toxin!

People often confuse the two terms. This video explains very briefly the difference between botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid. Both are used to remove wrinkles but they are not the same, one or the other should be used depending on the wrinkle to be treated and the area of the face.


The lower eyelid is composed of very thin and delicate skin. Underneath the skin there is fat that is supported by two ligaments (the lacrimal and palpebromalar ligaments).

Dark circles under the eyes occur because as we age, the skin thins and loses collagen and elastin, generating wrinkles. The small capillaries that irrigate it become transparent, giving the eyelid its purplish color. On the other hand, as we age, we lose our youthful fat, and the supporting ligaments give way, generating the so-called lacrimal and palpebromalar grooves.

LACRIMAL AND PALBEBROMALAR LIGAMENTS

All patients with dark circles under the eyes due to loss of skin elasticity with pronounced tear trough or palpebromalar sulcus.

No, it is not painful, because the product we use, has a local anesthetic incorporated, you can only feel a little discomfort, which will last a few seconds.

The duration is 10 to 15 minutes.

Frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)

There is no ideal age for eyelid plastic surgery. This moment will be defined by the appearance of the problem and is when we suggest repairing it. As we have mentioned in other sections, at Clínica Sanza we are in favor (when possible) of small corrections in time, rather than radical changes, which translates into more natural results and a more youthful appearance, with simpler and more effective procedures.
No. Fortunately, the characteristics of the very thin skin of the eyelids and the location of the incisions allow the scars to be very discreet. Once the stitches are removed (usually after 5 to 7 days) the scars can be concealed with colored make-up and after 2 to 3 months they are practically imperceptible.
Usually with local anesthesia and some sedation on an outpatient basis.
Postoperative edema (swelling) varies with each patient. At Clínica Sanza we perform minimally invasive techniques, which results in a faster recovery. Generally speaking, there may be some swelling in the first 3 or 4 days, which subsequently disappears. The purples vary greatly from one person to another. With our technique it is rare for them to appear, but in case they do, we provide treatment to eliminate them as soon as possible.
No, blepharoplasty is an outpatient procedure, which is performed in the operating room and lasts between 1 to 2 hours, it is minimally invasive so that, once the intervention is completed, and after a period of observation, the patient can go home.
You will be able to wear glasses after the operation is completed. Do not attempt to wear contact lenses for the first few days until authorized by your doctor, and wear them normally after 5 to 7 days.
The transconjunctival method is only effective if the purpose of the procedure is to remove fat deposits that have formed unsightly bags. If, in addition to this, there is excess skin to be removed, this route is not recommended, since it is not possible to tighten the skin by the transconjunctival route. Then, the incision is made under the eyelashes and after cutting the excess skin, it is tightened at that point.
If the patient wishes, yes. We can almond them, tear them, elevate them… There are patients who only wish to rejuvenate and not change their look, to be the same, but younger. In these cases we do not change the shape of the eye, we only eliminate the stigmata of aging.
It is true that we can see people with badly operated eyes and it is noticeable that they have been operated and their appearance has changed for the worse, but this is not normal. In addition, if a person has suffered a complication and the eyes have not turned out to his or her liking, it can always be rectified.
