Dark under-eye circles are a common aesthetic concern characterised by shadows or discolouration around the eyes. These can result from various factors, including fatigue, aging, eye strain, allergies, dehydration, sun exposure, and genetics. Lack of sleep can cause the skin to become pale, making the dark tissues and vessels beneath more visible. As we age, the skin thins and loses collagen, making the dark vessels below more apparent, contributing to these circles’ appearance.
Eye strain from prolonged screen use can enlarge the blood vessels around the eyes, darkening the area. Allergies release histamines that dilate blood vessels, exacerbating dark circles. Dehydration and sun overexposure can further affect the skin’s appearance, with dehydration leading to a sunken look around the eyes and sun exposure increasing melanin production, which can darken the skin. Genetics also play a role, as those with a family history of dark circles are more prone to develop them, and this trait can appear early in life and change over time.
Understanding and addressing dark under-eye circles can be challenging as they may be caused by genetics, aging, lifestyle, and sometimes medical conditions. Genetic factors make it difficult to eliminate these circles, but lifestyle changes such as getting enough sleep, managing stress, and improving diet can help. However, age-related changes like thinning skin and loss of collagen can be ongoing battles, although anti-aging treatments can help.
While there’s no one-size-fits-all cure for dark under-eye circles, a combination of lifestyle adjustments, medical treatments, and cosmetic procedures can help reduce their prominence. Cosmetic procedures, ranging from topical treatments to laser therapy and surgical interventions, offer promising results in reducing the appearance of dark circles.
These treatments often target the symptoms rather than the root causes and may require ongoing maintenance. For those with dark circles due to underlying health issues, managing the health condition may help alleviate the circles, but there’s no guarantee of a permanent cure.
