Sunmax Collagen Needle｜Panda NeedleService Description
The eye area is the part of the face that most easily reveals one’s age. Collagen in the dermis begins to deplete at an accelerated rate starting at age 25. As the tissue around the eyes loses its support, aging issues such as tear trough hollows, deepening dark circles, and a proliferation of fine lines gradually appear. While traditional hyaluronic acid can fill in depressions, it cannot truly address pigmentation issues. Furthermore, because the skin around the eyes is thin, hyaluronic acid can easily cause the Tyndall effect (blue light reflection) or a sensation of swelling.
The composition of Sunmax Double Beauty Collagen Panda Injections is identical to Type I collagen (80% or higher) found in the human dermis. It is highly biocompatible and naturally integrates into the skin tissue after injection, providing immediate structural filling while activating the dermis’s self-repair and regeneration mechanisms, restoring a youthful, plump appearance to the eye area from the inside out.
Because the most common area of application is around the eyes
It addresses tear troughs, dark circles, and hollows under the eyes, transforming the eye area from “dark circles and panda eyes” back to bright, lively, and youthful eyes—which is why it’s affectionately known as the “Panda Injection.”
Sunmax Shuangmei Collagen Injections useHigh-Purity Type I Atelocollagen (Deproteinized Collagen), with the following features:
Highly compatible with the human body More than 80% of the human dermis is composed of Type I collagen. The composition of Sunmax Panda Needles is 93–99.9% similar to the body’s own collagen, resulting in an extremely low risk of allergic reactions and biocompatibility that far surpasses that of foreign fillers.
Atelocollagen De-terminal Peptide Treatment Standard collagen contains telopeptide structures, which are the primary sites responsible for allergic reactions. Atelocollagen specifically removes this segment, significantly reducing the risk of an immune response and making it safer for use in human injections.
Fibrous, viscous structure It has a milky-white, fibrous texture that is soft and viscous. Once injected, it conforms closely to fill depressions, resists displacement, integrates naturally with surrounding tissue, and does not form lumps.
Actively lightens melanin after degradation When collagen is broken down in the body, it produces specific amino acids, which canInhibition of Tyrosinase Activity...thereby inhibiting the synthesis and deposition of melanin. This is a unique benefit not found in other fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, and it is the core principle behind the “Panda Injection’s” ability to reduce dark circles.
Sunmax Panda Needles vs. Hyaluronic Acid: A Comparison for the Eye Area
| Sunmax Panda Needles | Hyaluronic Acid (Around the Eyes) | |
|---|---|---|
| Principal Component | Type I Atelocollagen | Cross-linked hyaluronic acid |
| Biocompatibility | 99.9% (composition identical to human collagen) | Good biocompatibility, but it is a foreign substance |
| Risks Associated with the Tyndall Effect | None (milky white, opaque) | Yes (translucent texture; the thin skin around the eyes tends to show a bluish tint) |
| Reduce Dark Circles | ✓ Yes (inhibits melanin production after degradation) | ✗ Does not have this effect |
| Instant Fill Effect | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes |
| Displacement Risk | Low (fibrous, viscous structure) | Medium (the area around the eyes is prone to shifting during movement) |

- Stimulates collagen regeneration in the dermis, leading to continuous improvement in the texture of the skin around the eyes
- Reduces dark circles around the eyes for a more even and radiant complexion
Long-term cumulative effects
- After multiple treatment sessions, collagen continues to regenerate, and dark circles visibly fade with each session.
- Restores the structure of the dermis around the eyes, reduces fine lines, and refines and firms the skin
Indications
Eye Area Concerns (Primary Indications)

Sunmax Collagen Needle｜Panda NeedleFrequently Asked Questions
Q1: Which is better for treating tear troughs—Panda Needle or hyaluronic acid fillers? Both have their own advantages and are suitable for different groups of people. Hyaluronic acid fillers provide immediate and dramatic results, making them ideal for those with deep tear troughs who need significant volume restoration; The greatest advantage of the “Panda Injection” lies in its high biocompatibility with the human body, the absence of the Tyndall blue light effect, and its ability to actively fade melanin after collagen degradation—for those troubled by dark circles or who have previously experienced swelling or blue light issues with hyaluronic acid fillers, the “Panda Injection” is a more suitable choice. It is recommended that a physician evaluate each individual’s specific situation.
Q2: Does the Panda Needle treatment hurt? How long is the recovery period? The injection itself contains lidocaine as an anesthetic, and combined with the application of a numbing cream before the procedure, pain during the injection is minimal, and most patients tolerate it well. Mild bruising and temporary redness and swelling may occur after the procedure; swelling typically subsides within 1–2 days. The injection sites are extremely small and virtually invisible to the naked eye. It is recommended to wait until the day after the procedure before applying makeup.
Q3: After getting the "panda shot," will there be a white, visible lump? No. The Panda Needle has a milky-white texture that blends naturally into the skin tissue after injection. Combined with the use of blunt-needle technology for precise administration, it integrates seamlessly with the tissue, leaving no lumps or sensation of a foreign body. The results look natural and do not give the impression that anything has been injected.
Q4: Can the Panda Needle completely eliminate dark circles under the eyes? It depends on the type of dark circles. For structural dark circles (tear trough shadows), the results are most immediately noticeable after filler treatment; For pigment-related dark circles, the treatment works by continuously suppressing melanin production after collagen degradation; results begin to appear in about 2–4 weeks, and the effects gradually accumulate over multiple sessions; for vascular-related dark circles, the treatment provides some auxiliary benefits, but if symptoms are severe, it is recommended to combine it with other treatments. Most dark circles are of the mixed type; a physician will assess your condition and develop the most appropriate treatment plan.
Q5: How long after the injection will I see results? The treatment provides immediate filling effects; within 1–2 weeks, collagen regeneration begins, leading to simultaneous improvements in facial contours and skin texture; the full effects become fully apparent after approximately 2–4 weeks. For dark circles, optimal results are achieved only after multiple treatment sessions.
Q6: Will there be a rebound effect after the effects of the Panda Needle wear off? No. Once collagen is naturally metabolized and absorbed by the body, the area around the eyes will simply gradually return to a state close to what it was before the treatment; there will be no “rebound” or “more severe hollowing.” Regular touch-up treatments can help the effects accumulate over time, and after multiple sessions, dark circles typically do not return to their original severity.
Q7: Can the Panda Needle only be used around the eyes? Although Panda Needles are best known for their use around the eyes (tear troughs, dark circles), they can also be used to correct other superficial depressions on the face, such as nasolabial folds, and for general collagen replenishment and maintenance. A physician will assess and administer the treatment based on individual needs.
