In the quest for a youthful appearance, the eye area often poses a significant challenge. The delicate skin around the eyes is highly susceptible to wrinkles, fine lines, and dark circles due to aging, environmental factors, and lifestyle habits.
Juvelook is an injectable skin treatment that combines Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Poly D-Lactic Acid (PDLA) to provide both immediate and long-term skin rejuvenation. Originating from Korea, Juvelook is specifically designed to target signs of aging, particularly in the sensitive under-eye area, by replenishing moisture and stimulating collagen production.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA): Known for its high levels of moisture-retaining properties, HA hydrates the skin instantly, smoothing out fine lines and enhancing skin elasticity and resilience.
Poly D-Lactic Acid (PDLA): This synthetic polymer stimulates collagen production, improving skin firmness, elasticity, and texture over time. Of note, the PDLA microparticles in Juvelook are formulated to be safe for sensitive areas like the under-eye region, minimizing the risk of lumps and granulomas.
By combining these two ingredients, Juvelook helps to rejuvenate the under-eye area, addressing common issues such as dark circles, fine lines, and loss of skin elasticity.

Juvelook’s combination of HA and PDLA offers a comprehensive solution for under-eye rejuvenation, addressing various common issues such as dark circles, fine lines, and loss of skin elasticity. Its safety profile and ability to deliver both immediate and sustained results make it a preferred choice for those seeking to enhance their under eye appearance without invasive procedures.
Dark circles under the eyes are commonly caused by a combination of factors such as vascular congestion, pigmentation, and collagen loss. Juvelook addresses these issues through the dual action of hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Poly D-Lactic Acid (PDLA).
Hyaluronic Acid (HA): HA is known for its moisture-retaining properties. When injected, it hydrates the skin, making it appear more plump and smooth. This immediate boost in hydration helps to reduce the appearance of dark circles by filling in hollow areas under the eyes, which can cast shadows and make the dark circles more prominent. HA also improves the overall appearance by enhancing skin hydration and elasticity.
Poly D-Lactic Acid (PDLA): PDLA has been shown to be a strong collagen stimulator. When injected into the skin, PDLA microparticles stimulate fibroblasts, leading to increased collagen production over time. This collagen boost helps to improve skin firmness and elasticity, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, PDLA promotes angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which can improve blood circulation in the treated area and help reduce the appearance of dark eye circles due to poor blood flow.
Juvelook can help improve and minimise fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. The HA component provides immediate hydration, plumping the skin and smoothing out fine lines. Over time, the PDLA component stimulates collagen production, which strengthens the skin's structural integrity and elasticity. This continuous collagen production leads to a gradual improvement in wrinkles, making the skin around the eyes appear smoother and younger looking.
As collagen levels increase due to the PDLA in Juvelook, the skin quality around the eyes improve and becomes firmer and more resilient. The improvement in skin elasticity also helps to reduce sagging and enhances the overall texture of the skin, making it smoother and youthful looking. The HA boosts skin hydration, which further enhances skin texture and gives it a healthy glow.
With age, the under-eye area can lose volume, leading to a hollowed sunken appearance. Juvelook’s HA component provides an immediate volumizing effect, which fills in these hollow areas. The PDLA ensures sustained volume restoration by promoting natural collagen production. This dual action helps to restore a youthful fullness to the under-eye area, improving the “tired” appearance.
Juvelook Eye Rejuvenation involves injections designed to target the delicate under-eye area, promoting collagen production and enhancing skin hydration. Dr. Edwin offers two different approaches for administering Juvelook, each tailored to different patient needs and preferences.
The first approach involves using a cannula to inject Juvelook under the skin. This method is designed to minimize downtime and reduce the risk of bruising and swelling. The cannula, a blunt-tipped needle, allows for precise placement of the product with minimal trauma to the surrounding tissues. This technique is particularly beneficial for delivering the product smoothly and evenly, ensuring optimal results with reduced recovery time.
The second approach utilizes the Dermashine Pro micro injection system to administer Juvelook on the skin’s surface. This system employs ultra-fine needles to inject the product, which can cover larger areas uniformly. The Dermashine Pro system is effective for enhancing overall skin texture and hydration, making it ideal for patients looking to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation effect. This method also ensures that the product is evenly distributed across the treatment area, promoting consistent results.
Consultation: Before the procedure, patients will have a detailed consultation with Dr. Edwin. During this consultation, the doctor will assess the patient's skin condition, discuss their concerns, and determine the most appropriate treatment approach.
Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed and a topical anesthetic applied to ensure patient comfort. For the cannula method, the entry points will be carefully mapped out.
Juvelook Injection:
Cannula Method: The cannula is inserted through a small entry point and guided under the skin to deliver the Juvelook solution precisely where needed.
Dermashine Pro System: Ultra-fine needles are used to inject the product evenly across the surface of the skin.
Juvelook Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, patients may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a few hours to days. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to ensure optimal recovery and results. Patients are generally advised to avoid strenuous activities and direct sun exposure for a short period following the treatment.
Based on current clinical guidelines and expert recommendations, the standard protocol involves a series of 3 to 5 treatments followed by maintenance sessions.
Initial Treatment Phase
For the initial phase, it is generally recommended to undergo three to five sessions of Juvelook, spaced three to four weeks apart. This regimen helps to build up collagen levels and enhance skin hydration effectively. The initial treatments are designed to provide a foundation of improved skin texture, elasticity, and overall rejuvenation.
Maintenance Phase
After completing the initial series of treatments, maintenance sessions are typically recommended every six to nine months to sustain the results. These maintenance treatments help to continue the stimulation of collagen production and maintain the skin's improved condition over time.
Long-Term Results
The effects of Juvelook can last beyond 1 year, depending on individual skin conditions and lifestyle factors. Regular maintenance treatments can help extend the longevity of the results, ensuring that the skin remains youthful and rejuvenated.
