Hello. This is Director Seo Hyeong-cheol of Maypure Dongdaemun Branch.
There are people who are concerned because they are told they look tired even after getting enough sleep, or because shadows form under their eyes even when they are not smiling.
When the area under the eyes looks sunken, the first thing that comes to mind is fillers, but
In actual counseling Distinguishing between cases of insufficient volume and cases where the skin itself is thin and lacks elasticity It is important to do so.
today Explain the reasons for under-eye hollowness, under-eye fillers, and the differences between collagen ECM skin boosters such as Celle Diem and Rituo. I will do it for you.
01. Why do the areas under the eyes look sunken?
Under-eye hollowness can be examined by dividing its causes into three main categories.
① Reduction in under-eye volume
If there is a lack of volume between the under-eye area and the cheeks, shadows may form along the tear trough, and the under-eye area may appear sunken.
② Thin skin and loss of elasticity
The skin around the eyes is thin.
If skin elasticity decreases and fine wrinkles increase, the area under the eyes may appear more sunken or give a tired impression.
③ Under-eye fat protrusion and boundary
If the fat under the eyes protrudes forward, the area below it may appear relatively deeply sunken.
In this case, the boundary between the fat protrusion and the tear trough must be examined together.
Even if under-eye hollowness appears similar on the surface, the appropriate procedure varies depending on the cause.
02. If actual volume is lacking, 'under-eye filler'
Under-eye fillers use hyaluronic acid to supplement insufficient volume, and
This procedure aims to smoothly connect the sunken boundary between the under-eye area and the front of the cheek.
especially When the tear trough is distinct and shadows form due to lack of volume You can consider this through consultation.
The advantage of fillers is that you can see changes in volume immediately after injection.
However, the skin under the eyes is thin and has a complex vascular structure, so the treatment site and injection amount must be carefully determined.
Swelling, transparency, and unevenness may occur, and rarely, serious complications such as vascular occlusion or vision impairment may also develop.
Therefore, when considering under-eye fillers, it is important to accurately examine the actual cause of the hollowness and the surrounding tissues.
03. Are you worried about thin under-eye skin and fine lines?
sunken under-eyes Cases where it appears more prominent due to the thinning of the skin itself and loss of elasticity, rather than a simple lack of volume There is also.
People like this Concerns about fine lines under the eyes and skin texture as well There are many cases where this happens.
A procedure worth considering at this time is ECM-based collagen skin boosters like Celre Diem and Rituo no see.
The Extracellular Matrix (ECM) refers to the structural environment in the dermis of the skin that includes collagen and elastin.
Celrediem and Rituo are products utilizing human-derived acellular allogeneic dermis (hADM),
It is used to supplement the structural environment of the skin.
While fillers directly supplement insufficient volume, ECM skin boosters are closer to managing the skin's own condition, such as texture and elasticity.
04. What is the difference between Celdiem and Rituo?
CellREDM
Celle Diem is an ECM product based on acellular allogeneic dermis (hADM) that contains skin-constituting components such as collagen, elastin, and GAGs.
If you have thin skin lacking elasticity, or are concerned about fine lines and skin texture I recommend it.
Re2O
Lituo is also an hADM-based ECM product.
As a product designed to complement the structural environment of the skin's dermis, it can be considered during consultations regarding skin texture and elasticity management.
At Maypure Dongdaemun, we examine the condition of the under-eye skin, the degree of hollowness, and skin thickness to provide appropriate consultation for fillers or collagen boosters.
Are you wondering which procedure is suitable for sunken under-eyes?
Start by checking if you lack volume under your eyes or if the hollowness is becoming more prominent due to thinning skin.
05. Under-eye Fillers and ECM Skin Boosters: How to Choose?
In cases where the tear trough is deep and lacks volume
You can consider hyaluronic acid fillers by examining the volume distribution under the eyes and on the cheeks.
When the skin under the eyes is thin and fine wrinkles are prominent
You can consult about the suitability of ECM skin boosters, focusing on skin texture and elasticity management.
When sagging and loss of skin elasticity occur together
We can review volume improvement and skin condition management separately, and establish a step-by-step treatment plan as needed.
If the main cause is protruding fat under the eyes or severe skin sagging, it may be more appropriate to consider other treatment options, such as lifting.

Changes in volume can be observed immediately after injection. However, the actual contour will be evaluated as the initial swelling and bruising subside.

※ Treatment effects and recovery processes may vary from person to person, and pain, swelling, bruising, inflammation, or nodules may occur after the injection.
CommentsSince LDM is gentle, I received it without hesitation for hydration and soothing. I received it every 1 to 2 weeks, applying only mild moisturizer in between; however, on days with severe exfoliation, I applied a thick layer of moisturizer immediately after cleansing and adjusted the treatment schedule based on my skin condition the next day. On windy days, I found the soothing ampoule more comfortable than a face mask.
CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.
