The appearance of dark circles under the eyes in most cases is an aesthetic flaw, indicating the need to adjust sleep patterns and diet. However, it's not always advisable to rely solely on lifestyle changes or facial creams that supposedly can eliminate unattractive dark circles. Sometimes, it can be an anatomical peculiarity of the individual.
Why do dark circles appear under the eyes? The skin around the eyes is extremely thin, often acquiring a dark color due to the blood vessels and capillaries located beneath it. Additionally, the causes of dark circles under the eyes can be the following:
Dark circles under a child's eyes mainly occur due to a lack of essential elements in the body, nasal congestion during colds, or enlarged adenoids. In any case, this is an alarming signal for parents that requires the attention of a doctor.
The skin color around the eyes can indicate the presence of certain diseases. If the circles are blue or purple, the issue often stems from prolonged screen time, aging, lack of sleep, or pathology in various body systems (cardiovascular, gastrointestinal). A yellowish hue around the eyes may indicate unbalanced nutrition, liver and gallbladder issues, hormonal imbalances, or the negative effects of stress. Red-colored circles may arise from insufficient time outdoors, inflammatory eye conditions, heightened skin sensitivity, or allergic reactions (especially when combined with puffiness). Black or brown circles around the eyes mainly indicate the side effects of certain medications, deficiencies in vitamins or minerals, or increased blood density.
The appearance of circles under the eyes and puffiness can be caused by iron-deficiency anemia or thyroid gland disorders. If swelling in the extremities or other characteristic symptoms are observed alongside this, it's necessary to undergo clinical examinations and necessary tests.
How to get rid of dark circles under the eyes and restore lost skin elasticity is a common question from clients at the "LeoDerm" clinic. Firstly, it's important to maintain a proper daily routine—spending time outdoors, taking breaks for adequate rest, sleeping for at least 7-8 hours a day, and avoiding harmful habits. Experts also recommend drinking 1.5-2 liters of water per day, reducing sugar and salt intake, and avoiding alcoholic beverages and smoking.
Preventing the appearance of dark circles can be aided by washing with cold water, using quality makeup, and skincare products. A cream containing antioxidants (vitamins E and C) is quite effective against dark circles. Regular use of sunscreen and wearing sunglasses can reduce the risk of this cosmetic issue. In any case, it's advisable to consult a doctor before using skincare products.
If dark circles appear under a child's eyes, the doctor may recommend taking vitamins, establishing a proper hydration routine, and ensuring healthy sleep habits. Alleviating these unpleasant signs can be aided by ventilating the room before sleep, using extra pillows under the head, and ensuring a comfortable sleeping environment.
How to quickly get rid of dark circles under the eyes? Modern cosmetology offers several effective methods to eliminate dark circles that are applied under the recommendation of a specialist.
The treatment involves using a medical product from South Korean production that promotes skin brightening around the eyes, reduces dark circles, and eliminates puffiness. The cosmetic product contains biologically active polynucleotides that accelerate cell regeneration and the skin rejuvenation process overall. When using this innovative product, there are no side effects, making Rejuran completely safe for the human body. Skin biorevitalization around the eyes has no age restrictions and can be prescribed for both women and men.
This text describes a procedure involving Rejuran to reduce dark circles under the eyes. Before starting, an examination is necessary to rule out contraindications. The doctor applies numbing cream to the skin and administers injections in small doses, spaced 3-7 mm apart. A complete treatment course consists of 3-4 injection sessions done at intervals of 2-3 weeks.
Injections of a preparation containing recombinant human collagen are used to eliminate dark circles under the eyes, promoting tissue contraction, wrinkle smoothing, and increased skin elasticity. The specialist administers injections into the problematic area under the eyes at a distance of 1–1.5 cm. The course consists of 4 procedures performed at intervals of 2, 4, and 6 weeks. Positive effects are noticeable after the first use of the product.
Sometimes, dark circles appear due to a deficit of volume in the so-called tear trough. In such cases, effective treatment involves the use of dermal fillers based on hyaluronic acid (Juvederm Volbella, Belotero Balance) for tear trough contouring. The procedure is a one-time application using a special instrument called a cannula, and its effect lasts 8-12 months. The complete result is typically assessed after 14 days.
