The corners of your mouth seem slightly lower, a faint hollow has appeared between your chin and jawline, or your lower face looks less defined than it once did.

Acne scars are often spoken about as though they are simply marks left behind after a breakout. True acne scarring is more complicated than that. When inflammation damages the deeper structure of the skin, collagen can be lost or remodelled unevenly.

This is why good acne treatment begins with understanding what is happening in the skin, rather than immediately choosi

Regenerative under-eye treatments work very differently to traditional cosmetic procedures. Rather than creating instant change, they stimulate collagen production, tissue repair and long-term skin regeneration beneath the surface. This article explores the science behind regenerative aesthetics, why under-eye rejuvenation takes time, and why subtle, progressive improvement often creates the most natural-looking results.

If your skin is starting to look tired, dry, crepey or less firm than it used to, you are not alone. Over time, the skin naturally loses hydration, collagen and elasticity.
