Under-eye wrinkles are one of the most common concerns in aesthetic medicine — but also one of the most misunderstood.
Many treatments promise results, but not all address the real cause of the problem.
At Dr Elif Clinic London, we take a doctor-led approach to under-eye wrinkles, focusing on identifying the cause first, and then selecting the most appropriate treatment.
WHAT CAUSES UNDER EYE WRINKLES?
Under-eye wrinkles are not all the same — and this is why many treatments fail.
They can be caused by:
- Loss of collagen and skin elasticity
- Thin and delicate under-eye skin
- Repeated facial movement (smiling, squinting)
- Dehydration and poor skin quality
- Volume loss in the tear trough area
- Sun damage and ageing
WHAT IS THE BEST TREATMENT FOR UNDER EYE WRINKLES?
In clinical practice, most patients fall into one of these categories:
- Fine lines & crepey skin → Skin boosters
- Volume loss → Tear trough filler
- Skin laxity → Energy-based treatments or surgery
👉 This is why a doctor-led assessment is essential before treatment.
COMPARISON OF UNDER EYE WRINKLE TREATMENTS
Skin Boosters (Most suitable for fine lines & skin quality)
Skin booster injections improve:
- Hydration
- Skin elasticity
- Fine lines
- Crepey texture
They work by improving the quality of the skin itself, rather than adding volume.
👉 At Dr Elif Clinic London, this is often the preferred treatment for patients with early under-eye ageing and fine lines.
SO WHAT IS ACTUALLY THE BEST OPTION?
The most effective treatment depends on the diagnosis.
However, in our clinical experience at Dr Elif Clinic London, the majority of patients with:
- Fine lines
- Crepey under-eye skin
- Early ageing
benefit most from skin booster treatments, as they improve skin quality rather than adding volume or masking the problem.
WHY SKIN BOOSTERS ARE OFTEN THE BEST CHOICE
Skin boosters are ideal because they:
- Treat the root cause (skin quality)
- Provide natural-looking results
- Do not overfill the under-eye area
- Improve the skin gradually
- Work well for early ageing
This makes them one of the most reliable non-surgical options for under-eye wrinkles.
