Why dark circles happen

Dark circles can come from extra pigment, visible blood vessels under thin skin, hollowness that casts a shadow, or a mix of these. Genetics, ageing, allergies, rubbing the eyes, lack of sleep and sun can all contribute.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

More questions? Ask the clinic on WhatsApp.

Can dark circles be removed permanently?

They can often be lightened, but complete removal is not always possible, especially when they are inherited.

Some help with pigment or dryness; the right choice depends on the cause.

In trained hands they can be, but the under-eye area needs careful assessment and technique, and the risks are discussed with you.

Sleep helps tired-looking eyes but doesn’t fix pigment or hollowness.
