How Dark Eye Circles Develop
Besides lack of sleep, research shows that more than 80% of dark eye circles are a combination of other causes.
Sunken or Hollow Eyes
Ageing can cause fat and bone loss around our eyes, resulting in a sunken or hollow look that causes dark eye circles to appear.
Vascular Congestions
Dark eye circles with a purple or blue tint are often caused by veins showing through thinning skin, which can be caused by a combination of ageing and dilated blood vessels.
Pigmentation
Asians tend to develop pigmentation around the eyes due to higher melanin production, especially with prolonged sun exposure in Singapore. Certain lasers and medical-grade eye creams are highly recommended by experts.

Our Treatment Options
PCL Collagen Biostimulator
In general, suitable candidates for undereye filler are those who have genuine hollows, relatively good skin quality, and thicker skin in the area under the eyes. On the other hand, patients with skin laxity can end up getting a lumpy result with undereye filler and those with thin skin risk having the Tyndall effect (bluish discoloration of skin). At Veritas, PCL collagen biostimulator is offered as an alternative to undereye filler.
Collagen Biostimulators stimulate our body’s own production of collagen. For sunken undereyes caused by loss of collagen and elastin, PCL collagen biostimulator restores volume naturally to improve the appearance of dark circles and eye bags, with long lasting results of over 2 years.
Dr Chua is a regional trainer for the PCL collagen biostimulator, with years of experience in performing collagen booster treatments for the periorbital (eye) area.
Fotona BrightEye Combo
With more than 18 unique lasers, including various vascular lasers as well as pigmentation lasers, dark eye circles can be removed non-invasively and painlessly.
Dr. Chua is the first and only trainer for Fotona lasers in Singapore, as well as for the ProYellow vascular laser. Dr. Chua often combines different pigmentation and vascular lasers to target the different components of the skin, including a unique Fotona SmoothEye laser that directly treats the mucosal (inside layer) of the eye tissues to improve dark eye circles and eyebags.
PDRN Skin Booster (Eye)
PDRN Skin Booster (Eye) consists of purified polynucleotides (PN) derived from salmon DNA. The high concentration of Polynucleotides in PDRN Skin Booster stimulates collagen and elastin production, resulting in thicker and healthier skin under the eyes. This conceals the blood vessels from showing through and reduces the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. PDRN Skin Booster (Eye) has a light viscosity and is specially formulated for the delicate eye area and used to treat dark eye circles, wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes.
Veritas is a recipient of the PDRN Elite award 2022 based on professional clinical experience and demonstrated expertise in administering PDRN with fine procedural technique.

FAQs
Which treatment is suitable for my dark eye circles?
During the consultation, the doctor will assess your dark eye circles to see if they appear due to pigmentation, underlying blood vessels, or a structural sunkenness. It may also be a combination of the above reasons caused. The suitable treatment will depend on the doctor’s assessment of the cause of your dark eye circles.
Is PCL Collagen Biostimulator an undereye filler?
PCL collagen stimulator is not an undereye filler. Rather, it is a collagen biostimulator that provides the benefits of volume restoration of fillers whilst stimulating natural collagen production to improve undereye skin firmness for long-term improvement. Unlike undereye fillers with hyaluronic acid (HA) that are weak collagen stimulators and do not naturally mimic the volume loss under our eyes, PCL collagen stimulators provide natural results and last over 2 years.
Is the treatment painful?
Numbing cream will be applied before injectable and laser treatments to minimise discomfort. As the treatment only takes 5-15 minutes, depending on each individual’s condition, very minimal discomfort is felt by the patient over a short period of time.
What are the side effects of the treatment?
There are minimal side effects.
Will my condition worsen if I do not repeat the treatment?
No, your condition will not worsen even without repeat treatment after 2 years. In fact, it will still be better than not having done it, as the treatment both turns back the hands of the clock and delays the process of ageing.
How many sessions are required?
For PCL Collagen Biostimulator, only 1 session is sufficient to remove dark eye circles and eye bags. For lasers and Rejuran i, 3 sessions are usually recommended, depending on your specific condition.
How long is the downtime?
There is minimal downtime of 1-3 days for PCL Collagen Biostimulator and Rejuran i, where patients experience mild swelling. There is no downtime for the SmoothEye laser.
