Dark Eye Circles

Dark eye circles refer to the discoloration or shadowy appearance under the eyes, which can make one look tired or older than they are. They are a common cosmetic concern and can affect individuals of all ages and skin type. While not usually a medical issue, dark circles can sometimes indicate an underlying health condition or lifestyle factor.

Dark eye circles can result from various factors, and they may include:

​

1. Genetics

Inherited traits, such as thin or translucent skin around the eyes, can make blood vessels more visible, giving the area a darker appearance.

​

2. Aging

Over time, the skin around the eyes thins and lose collagen, making veins and discoloration more prominent.

​

3. Fatigue or Lack of Sleep

Poor sleep can cause blood vessels under the eyes to dilate and fluid to accumulate, leading to a darker, puffier appearance.

​

4​. Lifestyle Factors

Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, dehydration, and an unhealthy diet can impair circulation and skin health, worsening dark circles.​

​

5. Sun Exposure

Over exposure to the sun increases melanin production, leading to pigmentation and darkening under the eyes.

How can we help you?
