What Are Ageing Eyes?

The skin around the eyes is one of the thinnest and most delicate areas of the face, making it especially prone to early signs of ageing. Over time, factors such as collagen loss, dehydration, sun exposure, and repetitive facial movement can lead to fine lines, wrinkles, under-eye hollows, puffiness, and dark circles.

What treatments are available for Ageing Eyes at The Axis Clinic?

At The Axis Clinic in North London, we provide a range of advanced, non-surgical treatments to rejuvenate the delicate eye area. 

Our leading options include Morpheus8, which firms and tightens the skin through collagen stimulation, and CO₂ laser resurfacing, which improves texture, reduces wrinkles, and brightens pigmentation. LaseMD Ultra, when combined with skin boosters, enhances hydration, elasticity, and radiance while strengthening the skin barrier.

For additional refinement, Microneedling helps to smooth and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production, while Dermal Fillers using hyaluronic acid restore under-eye volume and soften hollow or sunken areas for a more youthful contour.

What Causes Ageing Eyes?

The eye area is one of the first places to show signs of ageing due to its delicate skin and constant movement. Over time, collagen and elastin levels decline, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness.

Other contributing factors include sun exposure, dehydration, genetics, and lifestyle habits such as lack of sleep or smoking, which can cause puffiness and dark circles.
