What is Under Eye Dark Circle?

A large number of our patients say that they have to resort to make-up tricks every morning to hide the bruises under their eyes. You will get temporary and impractical results from home remedies or cosmetic applications for dark circles under your eyes. For this reason, the most comfortable option would be to investigate the causes of the problem and focus on the most effective solution first.

Dark circles under the eyes occur why?

If you have dark circles under your eyes even in the morning, even though you are getting enough sleep, this is an unusual situation. Fatigue or lack of sleep are not the only reasons for dark circles under the eyes.

Dark circles under the eyes can occur for various reasons.

With advancing age, fat, muscle and bone loss, which is generally observed all over the body, manifests itself much more quickly and clearly around the eyes. The fat layer that disappears and thins as a natural result of tissue loss during the aging process may trigger dark circles under the eyes.

Another reason for dark circles under eyes is that the skin and blood vessels around the eyes tend to darken due to genetic inheritance. The skin tissue surrounding the eyelids is the part of our body with the thinnest skin. For example, while there is a skin thickness of 2 mm in other areas, the skin around the eyes is only about 0.5 mm thick. While the blood passing under the skin has a red tint, this occurs in the thinned skin around the eyes as light is absorbed and reflected with a bluish tone. The reflection of blood passing through the veins close to the surface in a bluish tone results in a purple and bluish surrounding of the eye area, which is genetically much thinner. In addition, this kind of thinness problem is accepted as one of the reasons for under-eye bags in older ages.

Nasal congestion may cause discoloration of the skin texture of this extremely sensitive area. Deviation in the nasal structure or any obstructive condition should first be corrected with rhinoplasty operations. For this, you can find out whether the problem is caused by your nose. If you inhale salt water into your nose to ease your breathing and repeat this for a few days, if you still have bruises, it may be thought that the problem is caused by the nose.

We can also observe that dark circles under the eyes appear as a result of chronic kidney diseases or an allergy under the lower eyelid.

We know that factors such as smoking, alcohol and unhealthy diet trigger dark circles under the eyes.

Briefly, we can list the causes of under-eye circles as follows:

  • Loss of volume in the cheeks
  • Lack of fatty tissue around the eyes
  • Looseness in the lower eyelid
  • Thinning of the under-eye skin
  • Smoking and alcohol use
  • Hyperpigmentation due to sun damage
  • Excessive coffee and tea consumption
  • Insomnia or inability to get quality sleep
  • Dehydration
  • Malnutrition
  • Melasma
  • Allergies
  • Nasal congestion
  • Medical reasons such as eczema, thyroid
  • Venous congestion in the eye blood vessels
  • environmental problems
  • Extends

Under Eye Dark Circle Treatments

Today, under-eye dark circles treatments help solve the problem with different medical and surgical applications. We aim to provide maximum benefit to our patients by offering different protocols to our patients in our clinics for the treatment of under-eye circles. Before treating dark circles under eyes, the cause of this problem is investigated. If you have dark circles under your eyes that are triggered by another treatable problem, it is emphasized that the main trigger should be treated first.

IPL

The purple appearance of blood vessels reveals under-eye circles. It is possible to transform this dark frame into normal skin color by using IPL and laser technologies.

Chemical Peeling

The chemical peeling process, integrated with laser technologies, increases collagen in the existing problem area, improves overall skin quality and therefore eliminates under-eye dark circles.

Fillers Containing Hyaluronic Acid

Fillers containing hyaluronic acid can be used to correct this dark appearance around the eyes. These medical fillers, which allow the tear trough and upper cheek area to plump again, also eliminate existing under-eye bruises by giving volume.

Fat Transfer

Fat injections, taken from the patient’s own regional fat and enriched with stem cells, are one of the effective approaches used in the treatment of under-eye circles. It is not a temporary procedure like hyaluronic acid fillers, and since it is an injection rich in stem cells, its results are extremely successful and long-lasting. By fat transfer, the cheeks can also be plumped and a lively and dynamic aesthetic can be achieved around the eyes.

Surgical Approach

Surgery, also known as eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty, is generally considered the most effective way to get rid of permanent dark circles.

During eyelid surgery, the area around the eyes is restructured from top to bottom, taking on a very lively, fresh and renewed shape, and dark circles under the eyes are eliminated. This surgery, which addresses all possible loss of shape around the eyes, including drooping forehead and eyebrows, is considered one of the most effective approaches in the world to eliminate eye area problems.
