For millions of Americans, dark circles can make them feel older, tired and stressed. Lack of volume and volume loss in the undereye region can create shadows and emphasize dark circles, leading to the appearance of tiredness and aging. In a study, 87% of patients had reduced undereye hollowness at 3 months and Restylane Eyelight was found to be well tolerated under the eyes. At 3 months, 92% of patients were pleased with their results, and 84% were still pleased through 1 year. The study also yielded high satisfaction, with 93% of patients expressing interest in receiving treatment again after 12 months.
“The results also showed that most patients – around 87% – did not experience adverse events related to treatment with Restylane Eyelight, giving them a new treatment option that is safe and effective for this very common problem,” said Abdo. “The most observed side effects for undereye injections are swelling, redness, tenderness, pain, bruising, itching, and lumps or bumps at the injection site.”
The FDA approval of Restylane Eyelight adds to Galderma’s growing Restylane product portfolio. With over 65 million treatments worldwide and counting, the Restylane family of HA dermal fillers is the broadest portfolio of dermal fillers in the U.S. For more information about this treatment, call 480.454.5577, visit AestheticIQClinic.com or schedule an appointment at the office.

The annual awareness survey, conducted by YouGov Plc. in 2023, weighs results across the U.S. census for age, gender, race/ethnicity, region, and income. In 2003, the first sepsis awareness survey found 19% of U.S. adults were aware of the term sepsis. As Sepsis Alliance has expanded efforts to educate healthcare professionals, the general public, policymakers, and the media on sepsis, awareness levels have risen, with a peak of 71% awareness in 2020.
Sepsis Alliance has become increasingly aware of disparities in healthcare based on socioeconomic status, race, and other factors. The survey found that those who identify as white are significantly more likely to be aware of the term sepsis (73%) than those who identify as Black (40%) and those who identify as Hispanic (41%), though Black and “other nonwhite” individuals have nearly twice the incidence of sepsis as white individuals. Of those aware of the term sepsis, there was also a significant difference in recognition of the four more common signs and symptoms of sepsis with 26% of those who identify as white recognizing all four, and only 16% of those who identify as Black and 11% of those who identify as Hispanic recognizing temperature, infection, mental decline, and extremely ill as the four more common signs and symptoms of sepsis.
Differences in sepsis awareness levels also vary significantly by self-reported sex, age, income, and education. Those who identify as women are more likely (67%) than those who identify as men (58%) to know the term sepsis. Additionally, those 55 and older are significantly more likely (69%) to recognize the term sepsis than those that are 18 – 34 years old (52%). These differences remain steady year-over-year, with 2022 seeing similar differences. Finally, those with a high school education or less (48%) and those who have an annual household income of less than $40,000 are significantly less likely to know the term sepsis (53%).
The pattern of stalled sepsis awareness levels in U.S. adults over the past three years demonstrates the desperate need for additional education and action. A National Sepsis Action Plan with a focus on reaching medically underserved communities has the potential to save thousands of lives from sepsis each year. As an example, the 2012-2018 TIPS® education campaign featuring “real people from many different backgrounds living with serious long-term health effects from smoking and secondhand smoke exposure,” is estimated to have helped one million people successfully quit smoking. A National Sepsis Action Plan, supported by government agencies, media, and multiple partners, could help make the signs and symptoms of sepsis well known. Knowing the signs and symptoms of sepsis, seeking emergency care, and reaching healthcare professionals with the knowledge to quickly recognize and treat sepsis can save lives – and Sepsis Alliance needs help to make this a reality.
