Our Personalized Approach to Hollow Under Eye Treatments in San Diego
Hollow or sunken eyes can develop for many different reasons. Every patient has unique anatomy, concerns, and treatment goals. At Allurant Medical Spa, we carefully evaluate your facial anatomy before recommending treatment. We also identify the factors contributing to volume loss beneath your eyes. This personalized approach helps us create natural looking results that complement your facial features.
Our goal is not simply to address the appearance of volume loss. We focus on improving facial balance while preserving your natural expressions and appearance. Every treatment plan is tailored to your anatomy, aesthetic goals, and long term vision. Depending on your needs, PRF may be used to support collagen production and improve tissue quality beneath the eyes.
Every procedure is performed by a licensed provider under the medical direction of Dr. Kat Khorrami. From your consultation through follow-up care, our team prioritizes safety, precision, and personalized care. We want you to look refreshed, confident, and like yourself.
What Causes Hollow or Sunken Under Eyes?
Hollow under eyes, often called sunken under eyes or sunken eyes, develop when volume beneath the eyes gradually decreases. Unlike dark circles, hollow under eyes are caused by structural changes instead of pigmentation. These changes create shadows that can make you look tired, older, or less refreshed. Understanding the cause of hollow under eyes helps guide the most appropriate treatment.
Age Related Volume Loss
As we age, collagen, facial fat, and bone support naturally decrease around the lower eyelids and upper cheeks. This gradual loss of support can deepen the under eye hollow and make surrounding shadows more noticeable.
Genetics and Facial Anatomy
Some people naturally have deeper under eye hollows because of inherited facial structure. Genetics can influence bone shape, fat distribution, skin thickness, and the natural transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. Because of these differences, sunken eyes can appear even in younger adults.
Midface Volume Loss
The cheeks help support the transition between the lower eyelids and the rest of the face. When midface volume decreases, the area beneath the eyes can appear more hollow or sharply defined. This change may also make existing under eye shadows appear darker.
Lifestyle and Dehydration
Weight loss, dehydration, smoking, and repeated sun exposure can make hollow under eyes appear more pronounced. Dehydration can temporarily make sunken eyes look deeper, while significant weight loss may reduce facial fullness. These factors do not always cause hollowing alone, but they can make existing volume loss easier to see.
Hollow Under Eye Treatment Options at
Allurant Medical Spa
Treating hollow under eyes starts with understanding whether the concern comes from volume loss, tissue quality, facial anatomy, or a combination of factors. At Allurant Medical Spa, PRF offers a regenerative approach that uses components from your own blood to support collagen production and improve tissue quality beneath the eyes.
PRF Under Eyes
PRF uses your own platelet rich fibrin to support collagen production and improve tissue quality. This treatment may help with mild hollowing, thin skin, or under eye texture changes. Results develop gradually as collagen production and tissue support improve.
The Science Behind Hollow
Under Eyes
Hollow under eyes develop when volume loss changes the smooth transition between the lower eyelid and upper cheek. As this support decreases, the natural contour beneath the eye can become deeper and more visible. That hollow creates a depression where light does not reflect as evenly across the face.
Why Hollow Under Eyes Create Shadows
This is why hollow under eyes can look darker even when the skin itself is not heavily pigmented. The shadow forms because of facial structure, not simply skin color. In many patients, the tear trough becomes more noticeable as volume loss progresses.
The tear trough is the groove that extends from the inner corner of the eye toward the upper cheek. When this groove deepens, it can create a tired or sunken appearance. Midface volume loss can make that contrast even stronger by reducing support below the hollow.
Understanding this relationship is important because dark circles and hollow under eyes can have different underlying causes. A careful facial assessment helps determine whether the concern comes from pigmentation, volume loss, tissue quality, or a combination of factors.

Benefits of Personalized Hollow Under Eye Treatments at
Allurant Medical Spa
Treating hollow under eyes can do more than improve the appearance of volume loss. A personalized approach can refresh your appearance while maintaining natural facial balance.
More Rested Appearance
Hollow under eyes can make you look tired, even after a full night's sleep. Improving the under eye area creates a brighter, more refreshed appearance while maintaining your natural facial features.
Softer Under Eye Shadows
Volume loss often creates shadows beneath the eyes that deepen with age. Personalized treatment softens these shadows and creates a smoother transition beneath the lower eyelids.
Improved Facial Balance
The under eyes play an important role in overall facial harmony. Restoring support beneath the eyes helps create balanced proportions without changing your natural appearance.
Smoother Eye to Cheek Transition
A smooth transition between the lower eyelid and cheek creates a more youthful appearance. Personalized treatment helps reduce sharp contours caused by under eye hollowing.
Long Lasting Rejuvenation
Results are designed to provide lasting improvement while preserving natural facial movement. Maintenance treatments can help you enjoy refreshed, balanced results over time.
Regenerative PRF for Hollow Under Eyes
PRF offers a regenerative approach to hollow under eye treatment by using components from your own blood to support the body’s natural healing response. Platelet rich fibrin contains platelets, fibrin, and growth factors that can support collagen production and gradual improvements in tissue quality.
PRF may be recommended for patients with mild hollowing, thin or crepey under eye skin, or early signs of facial aging. Unlike treatments designed primarily to replace volume, PRF focuses on supporting the quality of the surrounding tissue. Improvements develop gradually as collagen production and tissue remodeling occur.
Because every under eye concern is different, your provider will evaluate your anatomy, skin quality, degree of hollowing, and aesthetic goals before recommending PRF. A series of treatments may be recommended depending on your individual needs and desired outcome.
Your Results and Recovery Timeline
Results and recovery vary depending on your treatment plan and individual anatomy. Understanding the healing process helps set realistic expectations and supports the best possible outcome.
Initial Improvements
PRF results develop gradually rather than appearing all at once. Early improvements may become noticeable as the under eye area heals, while continued collagen production can support progressive changes in skin quality and overall appearance.
Healing & Recovery
Temporary swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur after treatment. Following your aftercare instructions helps support proper healing and the best possible outcome.
Maintaining Your Results
Long term results depend on your treatment plan, natural aging process, and individual response. Periodic maintenance appointments can help preserve refreshed, natural looking under eyes.
Which Hollow Under Eye Treatment Is Right for You?
Choosing the right treatment depends on more than the appearance of your under eyes. Your provider will evaluate your facial anatomy, skin quality, degree of hollowing, and aesthetic goals before recommending treatment. This helps determine whether PRF is appropriate for your specific concerns.
PRF may be considered for patients who want to improve tissue quality and support natural collagen production beneath the eyes. Because results develop gradually, treatment is designed around long term rejuvenation rather than simply adding volume. A personalized consultation helps determine the most appropriate approach based on your anatomy and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hollow Under Eye Treatments in San Diego
Can weight loss make hollow under eyes more noticeable?
Yes. Weight loss can reduce facial fat, making hollow under eyes appear deeper. A personalized consultation can determine the most appropriate treatment.
How does PRF help hollow under eyes?
PRF uses components from your own blood to support collagen production and tissue quality beneath the eyes. Rather than directly replacing lost volume, PRF supports gradual rejuvenation of the surrounding tissue. Results develop over time as the body’s natural regenerative processes occur.
How many PRF treatments are needed for hollow under eyes?
Many patients benefit from a series of treatments for optimal improvement. Your provider will recommend a plan based on your goals.
Does PRF add volume beneath the eyes?
PRF is not designed to replace volume in the same way as dermal filler. Instead, it supports collagen production and improvements in tissue quality. This may help soften the appearance of mild hollowing and create a more refreshed under eye appearance over time.
Can hollow under eyes come back after treatment?
Yes. Natural aging continues after treatment, and results gradually change over time. Maintenance treatments can help preserve your outcome.
