These 23 women were aged 30– 55 years. A hyaluronic acid and amino acid mixture was injected into the participants’ periorbital area. Three sessions of application with 15-day intervals were undertaken. Subjects’ age, height, weight, smoking status, and sport participation were recorded. A photonumeric dark circle scale and Fitzpatrick’s periorbital wrinkling classification were used for evaluation of dark circles and wrinkles in the periorbital area. Anatomical measurements (height of upper and lower eyelids) were done using ImageJ and a skin-analysis system (Observ 520).Results: The 23 women had a mean age of 42.46± 9.33 years, mean height 164.46± 4.96 cm, and mean weight 63.94± 8.26 kg. Before the sessions, the mean heights of the upper eyelids were 1.24± 013 cm (right) and 1.21± 013 cm (left), while those of the lower eyelids were 0.98± 014 cm (right) and 0.97± 0.17 cm (left). One month after the third session, mean upper-eyelid heights were 1.30± 0.09 cm (right) and 1.28± 0.11 cm (left) and lower-eyelid ones 1.02± 0.11 cm (right) and 1.02± 0.13 cm (left). Dark-circle and wrinkle-scale scores showed significantly positive results between before the sessions and 1 month after the third session.Conclusion: A hyaluronic acid and amino acid mixture can be used to rejuvenation of the periorbital area in women aged 30– 55 years.Keywords: dark circle, periorbital anatomy, periorbital area, rejuvenation, wrinkle |
