DARK CIRCLES

​

Looking tired all the time and older than your years? Under eye bag mesotherapy is an effective, affordable, safe and knife-less way to get rid of that excess baggage.

​

What causes dark circles under the eyes?

 

Pigmentation under the eyes is associated with dermal deposition of melanin. Dermal melanin deposition is often due to post-inflammatory pigmentation, which may follow:

• Sun exposure

• Atopic dermatitis

• Contact dermatitis

• Rubbing or scratching the eyes

 

Loss of fatty tissue in the eyelid or around the eye (tear trough) is associated with:

• Ageing

• Genetic factors

• Smoking

 

Bulging or puffy eyelids may be due to systemic conditions, particularly:

• Thyroid disease

• Dermatitis

• Hay fever (allergy)

 

Thin translucent skin is commonly observed with:

• Age

• Genetic factors

 

Shadowing is more noticeable at times, due to:

• Fatigue or lack of sleep

• Periorbital oedema (puffy eyelids)

• Dehydration (sunken eyes)

 

Superficially located blood vessels and blood stasis may contribute to the darkened appearance.

​

What can be done to reduce them?

​

Medical line of management includes applying creams that will reduce  the production of melanocytes. Depending upon the status of your dark circles we can opt for certain procedures to accelerate the results of the medical creams like

• Medical Grade Skin Peel,

• PRP or

• Mesotherapy,

• Radio frequency,

• Ultrasound etc
