Results can vary depending on individual skin conditions, but most users begin to notice visible improvements in their eye area within 4-6 weeks of consistent use. The serum is designed for long-term benefits, so continued use will further enhance its effects, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, puffiness, and discolouration while firming and lifting the skin. Patience and consistency are key to achieving optimal results with this advanced formula.
