Why is the recommended dose only half a mil per eye for the tear trough?

The tear trough sits in one of the most sensitive and vascular areas of the face. Injecting more than half a mil per eye in this zone increases the risk of swelling, migration, and other complications. Half a mil is the safe ceiling for the tear trough, and Plinest Eye’s 2ml syringe is designed so the remaining product can be used across the crow’s feet and sleep lines for a full eye treatment.

Can the leftover product from the tear trough be used elsewhere in the same session?

Yes, and this is one of the key advantages of Plinest Eye. After treating both tear troughs at half a mil each, you have 1ml remaining in the syringe. That can be used to treat the crow’s feet and sleep lines in the same session, delivering a complete periorbital polynucleotide treatment from a single 2ml syringe.

What injection technique is recommended for Plinest Eye?

The most commonly used approaches are serial puncture and linear threading, applied intradermally at a superficial depth. Technique varies depending on the treatment zone: the tear trough requires particular care given the vascular anatomy, while the crow’s feet and sleep lines allow for a more straightforward intradermal approach. Formal training with the product is strongly advisable before clinical use.

How quickly will clients see results?

Initial improvement in hydration and skin texture can be noticeable after the first or second session. More significant changes in fine lines, laxity, and crow’s feet typically become apparent after the third session and continue to develop over the following weeks as collagen remodelling progresses.

How should Plinest Eye be stored?

Plinest Eye should be stored at room temperature, away from direct light and heat. Always follow the manufacturer’s storage guidance, check the expiry date before use, and ensure you’re ordering through an authorised UK distributor to guarantee product integrity.
