Sound familiar?
The concealer that creases. The eye cream that does nothing. The "just get more sleep" advice. The dark circles that are genetic, not lifestyle. The hollowing that makes people ask if you're okay when you feel completely fine.
The under-eye area is genuinely one of the hardest areas to treat. The skin is thin, highly vascular, and dealing with multiple overlapping concerns at once. Standard filler helps with volume, but it doesn't address pigmentation, skin quality, or the cellular-level changes that cause darkness and puffiness. Austin's high-pollen cedar seasons and intense central Texas UV exposure accelerate cellular aging and skin barrier inflammation, making targeted medical aesthetics a structural part of any long-term skin health strategy here.
Light Eyes Ultra was developed specifically for this.
Dark circles that concealer can't fix
Hollowing that makes you look tired
Puffiness that won't go away
Fine lines in the delicate under-eye skin
Quick Answer
Light Eyes Ultra in Austin is a PDRN-based injectable treatment for the under-eye area. It uses pharmaceutical-grade Toskani PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide, derived from salmon DNA) to restore the periorbital tissue at a cellular level, targeting dark circles, hollowing, puffiness, and fine lines. Delivered via micro-injections by Brittany Cantu at Banyan & Bamboo on South Lamar, Austin TX 78704. A standard protocol is 3 to 4 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, with no downtime.
Who Is This Treatment For?
Concern: Persistent dark circles that do not respond to topical products, under-eye hollowing (tear trough), puffiness, or fine lines in the periorbital area.
Candidacy: Light Eyes Ultra is appropriate for clients who want a non-surgical alternative to under-eye filler, or who want to improve skin quality in the periorbital area alongside structural correction.
Timeline: A series of 4 sessions spaced 1–2 weeks apart is the standard protocol. Results are progressive and cumulative — most clients see significant improvement by session 3.
Combine: Light Eyes Ultra pairs well with dermal fillers for clients who need both structural volume correction and skin quality improvement in the under-eye area.

The Treatment
Light Eyes Ultra uses PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) — a regenerative compound derived from salmon DNA — to restore the delicate tissue around the orbital bone. Applied via micro-injections and mesotherapy, and used as an injectable when warranted, it reduces puffiness, dark circles, and hollowing that topical products cannot reach.
This is one of the most advanced and underutilized treatments in aesthetic medicine, and one of the most transformative.
Available as a standalone treatment or in combination with tear trough filler. Pricing discussed during consultation.
Why it works
Light Eyes Ultra contains a blend of hyaluronic acid, vitamins, coenzymes, and antioxidants that address the multiple causes of dark circles simultaneously, not just the surface.
Unlike traditional filler, this formula improves the actual quality of the periorbital skin, addressing pigmentation, hydration, and texture in the thin, delicate tissue around the eye.
For clients with very thin skin or pigmentation-driven darkness, standard tear trough filler can look unnatural. Light Eyes Ultra is specifically formulated for these cases.
Ultra-fine needles and a specialized formula designed for sensitive periorbital tissue mean most clients experience less bruising and swelling than traditional filler injections.

The Process
01
Brittany Cantu assesses your periorbital area and determines whether Light Eyes Ultra, tear trough filler, or a combination approach is right for you. No one-size-fits-all protocols here.
02
Brittany Cantu delivers Light Eyes Ultra two ways depending on your anatomy and goals. Mesotherapy uses a series of micro-needle injections just beneath the skin surface — ideal for diffuse pigmentation and tissue hydration. Injectable delivery places the formula deeper into the periorbital tissue for hollowing and structural restoration. Most treatments combine both techniques in the same session for maximum impact. Topical numbing is applied first.
03
A full course is typically 3 to 4 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart. Results build progressively with each session as the formula works at the cellular level.
04
After your initial course, maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months keep results looking fresh. Many clients combine with their regular filler or Botox appointments.
Your Injector
Brittany Cantu, AME brings 21+ years of injecting experience to every appointment. The periorbital area requires a level of precision and anatomical knowledge that most injectors don't have. Brittany Cantu has treated hundreds of clients in this area and knows when Light Eyes Ultra is the right call, when filler is better, and when a combination approach will get you the best result.
She won't oversell you. If your concern is better addressed a different way, she'll tell you.

Advanced Protocol
For clients with significant hollowing, volume loss, or persistent darkness that PDRN alone cannot fully address, we combine Light Eyes Ultra with Sculptra. The result is a two-layer regenerative approach: PDRN restores tissue quality at the cellular level while Sculptra rebuilds the collagen scaffold beneath the orbital bone.
Deep tear troughs, volume loss from aging or weight loss, persistent dark circles with a hollow component, and fine crepey texture above and below the eye.
Sculptra is placed in the periorbital region to stimulate collagen over 3 to 6 months. Light Eyes Ultra PDRN is layered above to regenerate the delicate skin and reduce puffiness and discoloration simultaneously.
Brighter, fuller, smoother under-eyes that look rested without looking done. Results build progressively and last 2 or more years with a maintenance session.
This protocol is assessed and customized at your consultation. Not every client needs Sculptra — Brittany Cantu will recommend the right combination for your anatomy.
